Virtual Tour

Since Wadi El-Hitan was made into a tourist venue, walkways between the main fossils have been laid out and small shelters built. This public park is now regularly visited by tourist groups, very interesting visitor facilities, toilets, cafeterias, bazaars, and a small campsite are present.

The Wadi El-Hitan Open-air Museum contains the skeletons of families of archaic whales that can be seen in their original geological and geographical setting of the shallow nutrient-rich bay of a sea some 40 million years ago.

Take your time and explore the views of this stunning Open-air Museum virtual tour!
