Hot Airballoon and Luxor Visits

04:00 AM - A Dawn Ascent: Hot Air Balloon Experience Before the city awakens, you'll be seamlessly transferred from your hotel to the hot air balloon launch site. Prepare for an unparalleled experience as you ascend into the pre-dawn sky.

Hot Air Balloon Flight Tour: Witness History from Above Drift gracefully over Luxor's majestic West Bank as the sun paints the horizon with vibrant hues. This truly magical moment offers a breathtaking aerial perspective of Egypt's grand history, revealing the intricate patterns of ancient temples and tombs from above. Experience a profound sense of peace and integration with nature and history. Don't forget your camera—you'll capture incredible photos whose beauty you'll scarcely believe!

07:00 AM - Return for Breakfast After your unforgettable flight, you'll return to your hotel to enjoy a well-deserved and delicious breakfast.

The Valley of the Kings: A Royal Necropolis Following breakfast, your private vehicle will whisk you away to one of Egypt's most iconic sites: the Valley of the Kings. This remarkable location is a stunning blend of ancient Egyptian ingenuity and the raw, captivating beauty of the desert landscape.

  • Tombs of the Pharaohs: The Valley of the Kings served as the secret burial ground for the pharaohs of the New Kingdom, beginning with the 18th Dynasty. It houses approximately 63 royal tombs, each a testament to the ancient Egyptians' elaborate preparations for the afterlife.
  • Journey into the Underworld: You'll have the privilege of entering three of these sacred tombs, allowing you to marvel at their vibrant hieroglyphs, intricate artwork, and the very chambers where pharaohs were laid to rest, offering a profound glimpse into their beliefs about resurrection.

Hatshepsut Temple: A Queen's Enduring Legacy Next, we journey to one of the most architecturally distinct and historically significant landmarks of Egyptian civilization: the Temple of Hatshepsut.

  • A Unique Design: This impressive funerary temple, built by the powerful Queen Hatshepsut during the 18th Dynasty, stands apart from its counterparts with its elegant, multi-terraced design. Its construction spanned 15 years and features three grand floors adorned with a multitude of statues. While some damage occurred during the reign of Thutmose III, who succeeded Hatshepsut, the temple remains a focal point of global historical interest.
  • Immersive Exploration: Your tour will focus on the rich historical background of the temple. Capture distinctive photos amidst the timeless statues and intricate inscriptions before we proceed to our next captivating destination, the Colossi of Memnon.

The Colossi of Memnon: Sentinels of the West Bank Encounter the awe-inspiring Colossi of Memnon, two monumental statues of King Amenhotep III. These towering figures, reaching approximately 22 meters (72 feet) in height, have stood for millennia as silent guardians of the temples and tombs of Luxor's West Bank.

  • Experience the magnificence: Allow yourself ample time to marvel at their vast size and historical importance. Don't forget to capture plenty of memorable photographs with these ancient sentinels.

Egyptian Lunch: A Culinary Interlude It's time to take a well-deserved break and savor the authentic flavors of Egyptian cuisine at a local restaurant. Recharge your energy for our final, grand exploration.

Karnak Temple: The Grandest Open-Air Museum Our ultimate destination is the colossal Karnak Temple Complex, one of the largest and most complex ancient Egyptian monuments and arguably the most important religious site dedicated to the worship of the god Amun.

  • A Pantheon of Pharaohs: Its creation began with Senusret I and continued for centuries, with successive pharaohs adding new structures, obelisks, and statues, each vying to leave their mark on this sacred space.
  • Unforgettable Exploration: Wander through its vast courtyards, towering hypostyle halls, and intricate sanctuaries. Your guide will illuminate its astounding history, allowing you to take truly unforgettable photos amidst this monumental testament to ancient Egyptian power and devotion.

03:00 PM - Return to Hurghada With minds full of incredible memories and cameras full of stunning images, your journey back to Hurghada begins.

07:00 PM - Arrival Back in Hurghada You'll arrive back at your hotel in Hurghada, having completed an enriching and unforgettable expedition into the heart of Egypt's ancient past.

We arranged the tour a few weeks in advance before arriving in Egypt. Akram presented us with a complete private tour program, starting in Hurghada, visiting Cairo, the Black and White deserts, Alexandria and finally returning to Hurghada. Everything run smoothly, from the different drivers, who picked us up and dropped us off, always punctual and safe (especially Hamada, 'Medo'!) to the guides, in particular Reeham in Cairo who was just outstanding and Ahmed in the desert tour who welcomed us in his home together with his family before taking us and preparing our dinner in the desert! The overnight stays were all planned in great detail. It was definitely an incredible experience during these 4 days! A huge thank you to Akram!
