Hot air balloon rides

[Nefertari]

Hod Hod is the only one in Luxor with full Lloyds insurance (UK £) so its worth the extra cost for that and their impecable safety record.

I would think it would be fun of riding the hot air balloon so you can take some pictures of the city below.

There are a number of other companies operating, and if you want cheap then you can get a flight for around £40 sterling. Hod Hod however, are more expensive.
Hod Hod have a desk in a few of the hotels (take a look in their brochure in the Movenpick and you might spot me in one of the pics lol). Their office is on a side street, just off Television Street, turn by the side of the Golden Palace Hotel. I could find a phone number if you need one.
The flight itself is amazing...... I will try and upload some pics.

I for one would love to go on an air balloon ride. Thanks for giving us the safest company, these things are so important. You really don´t want to be going up in something that is totally untrustworthy!

There are some things that I don't mind paying extra to get. Safety in something like a hot air balloon ride is definitely one of those things. This really does sound incredible!
