I will admit I was a bit anxious at the thought of hot air ballooning but my family were dead keen so I went along with it. Thank goodness I did! I would not hesitate to recommend this trip and the company are professional and thorough. Not scary one bit! Gentle take off and did not even feel the landing... More

There are now many Balloon companies in Luxor, Egypt but Magic have been established more than 10 years & are flying daily.I own holiday rental flats in Luxor & my guests use this company on a very regular basis. I myself went up on the balloon agani last week flew over Hatshepsuts temple & took more stunning views of the... More

What a balloon ride. Prompt pick up; careful safety directions, and a world class experience flying over the Nile and ancient tombs as the sun is rising. The entire experience was extraordinary! The delightful ending was a soft landing in a farmer's field with many children running to admire the ballon and help us out of our basket. In addition,... More

What a wonderful experience - 'Captain Bob' and his crew were wonderful and helped us relax and enjoy the trip that much more - watching the sky coming to life from the dizzy heights of the Luxor skyline in this awesome balloon was a must do...and if we are in Luxor again it IS something we will definitely be doing...

Can not discribe the buzz.... You have to try it to see what i mean. Magic took great care of us and I'm sure that's what addad to the BUZZ !

Traveling in Luxor can be difficult with the near-constant harassment from touts, caleche drivers and boatmen - a balloon trip is the perfect reprieve. It was by far the highlight of my 10-day trip to Egypt and I would go back again and again, if I could...and at the prices they offer, there is no reason not to. Do not... More
