Does anyone know the best people to take a baloon ride with over valley of the kings? Do Jollies offer it?
Any idea how much it costs?
What else is there to do? I'm staying at Maritim Jolie (formerly Movenpick). I think its on crocodile island. I was hoping to visit the Botanical Gardens and the Nubian Museum too, any idea how easy it is to arrange these?
Hi Mark
All balloon flights were cancelled a few months ago due to a several accidents, they are allegedly being introduced again in August so I don't know if they will be back flying when you go, if they are on Jolley's can book them.
You don't really get a balloon flight over the Valley of The Kings, the balloons are dependant on thermal currents and don't generally go over the mountains as there is too much up currents and also there is no guarantee on where the balloons fly over and land as this also thermal current and wind dependant, so all you book is a balloon flight and where you go varies.

Your hotel also has a fellah tent show once a week which you might like.
