        Highly recommend
        Trip was organized very well: transfer and communication was clear and on time. In the beginning of the trip we had hot drinks and drinks on a boat. Pilot was experienced and the flight was smooth - I liked that he rotated a bucket in order to show everybody the views.

        Simply ...Wooow !!!
        Amazing views,which came as a result of an extremely hard working team who did their best to make everything happen. Many balloons they've just gone up without waiting for the fog to disappear,but ours waited in order to have perfect weather conditions as shown in my photos. The basket was extremely comfortable and the captain's manoeuvres allowed us to take pictures from every angle possible . Don't forget to tip at the end ,as it won't change your lifestyle, but all together we can change theirs,as they definitely deserve it.

        Fabulous
        The organization of the trip is amazing, no waiting for nothing, everyone is super nice, the experience by itself is fantastic, but that is obvious. Starting and landing extra smooth. As we ware a family of four we choose the cheaper second trip, but imagine they made us upgrade without any extra cost for sunrise trip and it was just so beautiful - the colors. We felt so lucky, thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰. Great team, I hope to be back, and I definitely I will choose them again!

        False information given when booking this
        The balloon ride was great. The description was for eight hours with visit to king of valleys etc. was not included at all and was told to make our own way back or contact the tour guide. No way of doing this. Ruined the day and heard nothing back when asked for a refund

        Great value for the money, Fantastic
        We are a family of four. We booked the balloon trip as a surprise for our teenage children. Nobody was disappointed. The pilot was utterly charming friendly and professional. He pointed different places of interest out. He also told us all to get our cameras ready on video and made his balloon do a 360 turn. There were roughly twenty people in our basket with possibly ten different nationalities. We strongly recommend this trip. We live in France and could not afford to go up in a balloon so to experience it all together in Hurghada was truly wonderful.

        Children enjoyed so much
        It was very pleasing and exciting for children (6 years and 10 years). Minimum age is 6 years. We were waiting for this experience for years.

        Such a great experience
        This was such an amazing experience. We loved every bit of it. Our tour guide met us at our hotel in the morning with some breakfast and light snacks, then we took a private boat straight to the car and took a private car to the balloons. I highly recommend working with this company because everything was nice and seamless. Plus the balloons in the sky was the best part and it was just an amazing experience that I recommend everyone doing. Thank you so much for this wonderful adventure. We will be back

        10/10 experience!
        Unbelievable experience and adventure. From the boat ride, to the private car ride and breathtaking views from the hot air balloon...it was such a smooth and seamless process. Marawan, our tour guide was very nice, informative, and patient. Couldn't have asked for a better tour guide.

        Don’t take this company
        Be carefull about this company!!! Air Ballon was good but the Luxary and private was absolutly fake. The boat to cross the river was suppose to be with a premium breakfast and we finaly get a bad coffe and that’s it . No expresso and french croissant as they wrote!!! Be ready to wait during 2 hours in a bus before flying without any explications. You will fly with 40 other balloon and 20 people per basket. One good point: the captain onboard was excellent. Last recommandation: don’t take the videos propose because the videos and the photos will be from all the people in the baskets and the quality of the photos and the videos are absolutly the worst that ever seen!!! Ok it’s 15$, but it’s 15$ to much!!!
