We start your balloon experience by picking you up from your hotels within the urban areas of Luxor, flights taking off around sunrise. The exciting and charming aspect of ballooning is that you always know where you take off, but you never know where we will land. The direction and speed depends on the wind; the pilot can fly higher and lower by means of the burners. Upon landing, Pilot will distribute a memorable certificate.

Sindbad are amazing! Ahmed who picked us up was on time, professional and caring! Gabriel leading was so friendly and kept us safe. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, I recommend it! do the first wave and catch the Sunrise but even if you do the second its all incredible. The pilot is safe and theres lots of crew. These guys are building the tourism industry back up and doing a great job! (tip kindly they work so hard)🌅 BOOK it!

Then it’s time for takeoff. Away from the daytime crowds, you will drift peacefully over the west Bank of Luxor and sights such as the monuments of Thebes. As the early morning sun rises over the East Bank, the city and the surrounding mountains will be illuminated in stunning golden hues.
