In the wonderful couple of days descending the river, a single place clashed with the whole – Esna. The passage of the lock took many hours, and security reasons prevented the local visit that could have filled those long hours. In the end, we may ask: Who visited Esna?
Here we plan to collect the travelling experiences by the users of Touristrips, and useful information about this place.
On the “mandatory” cruise on the Nile, there are several stops to visit the monuments on the banks of the river.
Here, the stop, sometimes long, is due to the existence of a dam, forcing the management of the passage of boats through the lock.
With luck, you can forget about this time visiting the city, but the most likely thing is to stay on the boat, resting and watching the constant movement.
Highlights in Esna:
If you can disembark, you can visit the Khnum temple and take a felucca ride (Aswan or Luxor are good alternatives for this ride).
