Luxor, Egypt | Guide to the cheapest hot air balloon rides in the world

At 04:00 the alarm clock rings, wake up, wash, put on thick clothes and prepare to go see the hot air balloon. It took nearly two hours in the dark, both by boat and by car, to reach the west bank where the hot air balloons are launched. We watched the sun rise, our first hot air balloon flight clearly won't see the sunrise, because the staff said they were waiting for the wind, wanting to fly over the Valley of the Kings. Riding a hot air balloon really requires patience, standing in the cold wind for more than an hour before taking off, the moment the blower starts, the whole field screams and boils, three hours before and after, 7:15, the sun has risen, we are finally going to fly. After the hot air balloon is ignited, except for the 'captain', the rest of the staff have all gone down, only the captain is controlling the direction and take-off and landing of our hot air balloon. Unfortunately, our hot air balloon may not love the Valley of the Kings, all the way to see the Valley of the Kings, large green fields, houses, churches, came to the Nile. Riding a hot air balloon is like a bird flying in the sky, enjoying the feeling of freedom. When we were about to end the flight, the captain needed to find a suitable place for us to land, and the staff were driving and running all the way, several times thought we were going to land, but the wind blew us back into the sky, only to see them running hard but falling short each time, finally near the Nile bank, we finally landed, the hot air balloon staff basically arrived at the scene within 5 minutes. The emotional value that the hot air balloon brings to me is higher than this 1800 Egyptian pounds, it is said that Egypt is the cheapest country in the world to ride a hot air balloon, more than two hundred dollars what bike do you want‼️ 🤣Hot air balloon riding guide: 1. I directly found the boss of happy land youth hostel to book the 1800 Egyptian pounds first flight, the second flight is definitely cheaper. In fact, the price of flying a hot air balloon changes with time, my time in Luxor was during the Christmas and New Year period, somewhat more expensive. But that day I knew someone else was sitting on the first flight for 1400 Egyptian pounds, bargaining is still up to the individual, and also depends on the company you sign up with, maybe the take-off time is the second batch of the first flight, the one I signed up with was the first batch directly, the overall service attitude is also very good! 2. The scenery of Luxor's hot air balloon is very beautiful, half is the Valley of the Kings in the loess slope, half is the lush green fields of the Egyptian people. Watching a sunrise on a hot air balloon is definitely very nice. Remember to wear very thick for the first flight, before sunrise in winter, Luxor is still very cold.
