Whale Valley Fossil Safari: Wadi El Hitan
Scheletri di balene di 40 milioni di anni, nel bel mezzo del deserto egiziano.
Un tracciato del deserto segnato sulla sabbia e ghiaia tra i siti fossili, senza ombra sulla passeggiata e lunghe unità a lato.
Informazioni su questo tour
Wadi El Hitan — la Valle delle Balene — è il primo sito dell'UNESCO Patrimonio dell'Umanità naturale dell'Egitto, e si è guadagnato questo status per qualcosa di veramente strano: gli scheletri fossilizzati di alcune delle balene più presto, gli animali che trasportano ancora le gambe vestigiali dei loro antenati che abitano la terra, sparsi attraverso il deserto aperto 40 milioni di anni dopo la loro morte. Un piccolo museo fossile in loco spiega cosa stai guardando prima di uscire tra gli scheletri stessi.

Before You Book
The things travelers ask us most about this tour.
Yes. Hotel pick-up e ritorno is included — we collect you from your hotel or Cairo address and bring you back at the end, so you are not arranging taxis around the day. Tell us where you are staying when you book; if you have not chosen a hotel yet, you can send it on later.
A fair amount, but nothing strenuous. Un tracciato del deserto segnato sulla sabbia e ghiaia tra i siti fossili, senza ombra sulla passeggiata e lunghe unità a lato. If someone in your group has limited mobility, tell us before you book — we can usually adjust the route or the pace rather than have you find out on the day.
1 giorno, door to door from your hotel. Start times are flexible — going early is the single best thing you can do for both the light and the crowds, but if you would rather not, we will build the day around the time you want to leave.
Pranzo, Consigli and Spese personali sit outside the price. Tipping is customary in Egypt but entirely yours to judge, and nothing on the day is compulsory — you will not be taken to a shop you did not ask for.
Yes — every tour here is a starting point rather than a fixed package. Swap a site, add an experience or a photoshoot, change the pace, or extend it by a day and we will rebuild the schedule around you.
