Breathtaking balloon flight

A beautiful organization and a superb experience. Public transport then boat to reach the place where the balloons fly. About an hour's flight. Then public transport resumed to the Memnon columns where our personal driver was waiting for us. He gave us explanations on the road by translating with his app. Really good! And it comes at a reasonable price. Thank you Viator and the supplier
