点评:I booked a one-day tour for my friend and I to visit the indigenous Wiwa people in the mountains a couple of hours from Taganga. We were told that the tour would include an informational meeting with a leader of the group and a personal consultation with a spiritual guide as well as a traditional lunch. When we got there the men whom we were supposed to meet were not there so a very nice young woman did her best to fill in at least on providing information about their way of life. We were also told to bring our swimsuits because there was a river a short walk away where we could take "a refreshing swim". When my friend asked our driver about that, he said "what river?" I also asked the travel agent whether there would be an English-speaking guide as I do not speak any Spanish and she assured that there would be. As it turned out, nobody spoke English so my friend, who fortunately speaks fluent Spanish, had to do all the interpretation. On the plus side, our driver was excellent and he said the tour included breakfast, which we did not know but was a welcome surprise. We also stopped for a coffee break halfway to the village and had a delicious lunch at the village. And he did offer to stop at a waterfall in Minca on the way back if we wanted the "refreshing swim". But I don't feel that a 2 -hour drive into the mountains, breakfast, lunch, and a short talk with a leader's daughter was worth $145 per person. I wrote to the company in English and then again translated into Spanish about requesting a partial refund. I have never received any acknowledgement from the company. Spend your money on a beach trip instead.
翻译:我为我和我的朋友预订了一日游,去参观距塔甘加几个小时车程的山区里的土著维瓦人。我们被告知,这次旅行将包括与团体领导者的信息会议、与精神向导的个人咨询以及传统的午餐。当我们到达那里时,我们应该见到的男人并不在那里,所以一位非常好的年轻女士尽了最大努力,至少提供了有关他们生活方式的信息。我们还被告知要带上泳衣,因为步行不远就有一条河,我们可以在那里“畅游一番”。当我的朋友问我们的司机时,他说:“什么河?”我还问旅行社是否会有英语导游,因为我不会说西班牙语,她保证会有。事实证明,没有人会说英语,所以我的朋友(幸运的是他能说流利的西班牙语)不得不做所有的翻译。从好的方面来说,我们的司机非常出色,他说这次旅行包括早餐,我们不知道,但这是一个令人欢迎的惊喜。我们还在到达村庄的半路上停下来喝咖啡休息,并在村庄享用了美味的午餐。如果我们想要“清爽的游泳”,他确实提出在回来的路上在明卡的一个瀑布停下来。但我觉得2小时的车程进山,吃早饭,午饭,再和领导的女儿聊聊,每人145美元不值得。我用英语写信给该公司,然后再次翻译成西班牙语,要求部分退款。我从未收到过公司的任何确认。把钱花在海滩旅行上吧。
