Great early morning experience with Yousry Khaleed. Worth of waking up at 4.30 am.🙈 Beautiful view of the Valley of the Kings, and west side of Egypt from the above. Yousry spreaks English very well, and he can recommed you local places to eat! 🥇
The gentlemen helped us get into the balloon. No easy feat. The Captain and the ground crew were fantastic. The young man, Mohammad, was very helpful, courteous and answered all our questions. Did not expect the boat ride across the Nile to the West Bank, but we loved it. Would recommend this tour.
Mohamed let us on A beautiful and wonderful journey to a Hot air balloon ride at Dawn over the valley of the Kings. Mohammed personally made sure that I was comfortable and that my needs were met. He is personable, friendly and has a great sense of humor. I made a specific observation that he Formed personal relationships with many of the guests. He knew people by name. And had only met us that morning. I highly recommend the balloon ride over the valley of the Kings with Mohamed.
This was truly one of the highlights of our trip! From start to finish, everything was so well organised. Our guide Yousry was amazing - he collected us early in the morning with a big smile, made sure we were comfortable, and explained the process clearly. Our captain, Ali, was fantastic. You could really feel how experienced and confident he was, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable and relaxed. Floating silently above the temples and the Nile, with the sun rising over the Valley of the Kings and the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, was absolutely magical. They do mention bringing a jacket or something warm for the early morning, but we didn’t need it at all, the heat from the flames is quite intense at times (though thankfully not constant), which kept us warm during the flight. The entire team was friendly, professional, and made us feel safe throughout the journey. Seeing Luxor from above - the farmlands, the desert, and the ancient sites - is something I’ll never forget.
Soaring Above Luxor with HODHOD SOLIMAN: A Five-Star Experience! My hot air balloon ride with HODHOD SOLIMAN in Luxor was, without a doubt, the highlight of my trip to Egypt! From the seamless logistics to the fantastic crew, everything was perfectly executed for an unforgettable sunrise experience. Our day began with our wonderful guide, Yousry, who was an absolute star. He met us right at our hotel, expertly managed the boat crossing over the Nile, and then a quick drive to the launch site. Yousry’s preparation was thorough; he clearly explained all the safety rules, making everyone feel comfortable and ready for the ascent. His friendly and professional manner set a great tone for the entire morning. Once at the launch site, we were in the hands of Captain Ali, a truly exceptional pilot. With 16 years of experience, his knowledge and skill were immediately evident. Not only was he incredibly reassuring and professional, but he was also genuinely funny, keeping us entertained with his commentary throughout the flight. Cruising over the ancient wonders of Luxor at sunrise was a magical sight, and Captain Ali made sure we had perfect views. Best of all, he brought us down with a very safe and smooth landing—a testament to his extensive experience. The entire staff was great and friendly. We were treated so well from start to finish. The coordination between the hotel pickup, the river crossing, the safety briefing, and the flight itself was flawless. If you are considering a hot air balloon ride in Luxor, I wholeheartedly recommend HODHOD SOLIMAN. Ask for Captain Ali and Yousry for a truly remarkable, safe, and fun adventure! Five out of five stars!
