Wadi Hitan or Valley of the Whales is located in the Protected Area of Wadi El Rayan and it was designated by UNISCO as a world Heritage Site in recognition of the 40 million year
-old whale skeletons found there. The site reveals evidence for the explanation of one of the greatest mysteries of the evolution of whales: the emergence of the whale as an ocean-going mammal from a previous life as a land-based animal.

Educational and beautiful experience outside Cairo! - Aladdin has guided us through the day. He even arranged for us a typical Egyptian breakfast, it was very tasty!
Aladdin has a lot of knowledge and passion and you can see that in his way of doing things and talking. And he takes beautiful pictures too!
The trip is very well organized and definitely recommended to anyone who wants to do something outside Cairo!
Thank you so much!

Location and views are fantastic, but dont expect an experienced tour guide! - The tour itself was great, totally worth the visit and going off road was a treat. However the tour guide was inexperienced and was visiting the place for the first time so not very informative. We had to learn about the location through google. The tour company can do better that this.
