点评:One of the GREATEST Indiana Jones-like experiences I have ever done. What a journey! It's hard to explain how cool it is - you board a canoe with two boatmen, glide upstream then downstream through water and rapids. families wading in the water around you and giving you high fives and monkey sightings. And then the ultimate finale to the falls where you board a bamboo raft. It was like a theme park ride, but in real nature!
At first, it's a little overwhelming when you get there. It isn't clear - it's not like it's a destination like Disneyland where you park, pay and venture off. There are MANY vendors, and many people trying to sell you up for the "best deal" around.
We ended up stumping upon ARIA PAGSANJAN FALLS. Mostly because it looked and felt legit, and they had honest employees.
ARIA was very welcoming with a clean facility complete with a buffet and shaded area. AND SHOWERS! Everyone else seemed shady as hell, and will charge you more if you're a foreigner. At least this company is honest, and has a great place for you to relax before venturing through nature.
TIPS: Bring cash, waterproof bag for personal items, water, sunscreen, hat (that can fit under a helmet) and rash guard.
And please tip your rafters. They are hardworking and lugging pounds and pounds of our tourist asses through rocks and rapids. They're always smiling and happy, but they definitely deserve more.
Overall experience was about 2 hours. 1 hour to the falls, 1 hour back. With a short break and snacks upstream.
Thanks for the great memories, Pagsanjan Falls!
翻译:这是我经历过的最棒的印第安纳琼斯式体验之一。多么棒的旅程!很难描述它有多酷——你登上一艘有两个船夫的独木舟,在水和急流中逆流而上,然后顺流而下。家人在你周围的水中涉水,与你击掌,还可以看到猴子。最后到达瀑布,在那里你登上竹筏。这就像一个主题公园游乐设施,但却是在真实的大自然中!
一开始,当你到达那里时,你会感到有点不知所措。这不太清楚——它不像迪士尼乐园那样的目的地,你停车、付款,然后就出发了。有很多摊主,很多人试图向你推销“最划算”的东西。
我们最终来到了 ARIA PAGSANJAN FALLS。主要是因为它看起来和感觉都很正规,而且他们的员工很诚实。
ARIA 非常热情好客,设施干净整洁,有自助餐和阴凉处。还有淋浴!其他人似乎都很可疑,如果你是外国人,他们会向你收取更多费用。至少这家公司是诚实的,在你冒险穿越大自然之前,这里有一个让你放松的好地方。
提示:带上现金、防水袋(用于放置个人物品)、水、防晒霜、帽子(可以戴在头盔下面)和防晒衣。
请给漂流者小费。他们很勤劳,拖着我们游客的屁股穿过岩石和急流。他们总是面带微笑,很开心,但他们绝对值得更多。
整个体验大约 2 小时。1 小时到瀑布,1 小时回来。在上游短暂休息并吃点零食。
感谢帕格桑詹瀑布给我留下的美好回忆!
