Hot Air Ballooning Over The Valley of The Kings

[Myra Thomas-Rhodes]

One of my trips to the UK, in 2006 was to go to Crufts and to visit the Irish Setter Championship Show.
There was a week spare in between the two shows, so I was lucky enough to take the opportunity go to Egypt, with a friend.
Not a country I ever expected to visit, I found it amazing as well as like something out of biblical times - in fact, at times, a country gone mad!
Surprisingly, the highlight of the entire trip, was to hot air balloon over The Valley of the Kings.
With a Desert Landing, and the paperwork to prove it, I enjoyed 40 minutes of silence from high above, and breathtaking views of an ancient civilisation.

Looks brilliant! I did the "on-foot"-version, but here you do get a superb overall view.

Air trip seems the best way to look at this ancient place and the best point of wiev on it.
Fantastic perspective, and interesting intermission between dogs things.

Dear Myra,

thank you very much for photos, I was there couple weeks ago, so all is so fresh in memories, but we have not take hot air ballone trip.
Amazing country and history, for me Valley itself was fantastic but there was extremely hot, we were at 8 a.m and it was already hot, can image to be there in the midday.
