点评:Absolutely horrible experience. Very disappointing for a park that markets itself toward families.
We visited SeaWorld San Antonio with our two young children and were disappointed with nearly every aspect of the experience.
First, the park advertises an opening time of 10:30 AM, which already seems fairly late. What isn't made clear is that only part of the park opens at that time. The remaining areas didn't open until 11:00 AM, and many rides weren't operating until around 11:30 AM. Throughout the day, several rides were closed or experienced intermittent shutdowns. Water rides in particular would randomly close and reopen, making it difficult to plan our day.
We also purchased the All-Day Dining Deal for our family of four, which turned out to be unnecessarily frustrating. The process was inconsistent between restaurants. Some locations required us to place each meal order separately, while others allowed us to order everything together. What qualified as a meal also varied, with some locations including both a side and dessert while others only allowed one or the other. At one location, we experienced difficulties scanning our dining passes, and the employees were unable to effectively assist us. Considering how expensive the food is and how small the portions are, the entire dining experience was disappointing.
The worst part of our visit, however, happened in the evening.
We decided to have dinner at the park before leaving to get our money's worth from the dining passes. The BBQ restaurant took an exceptionally long time to prepare our food, which delayed our departure.
Unfortunately, SeaWorld's Halloween event was underway by the time we were trying to leave. While we knew there was a Halloween event taking place, we were unaware that it was recommended for ages 13 and older. We did not see this age recommendation clearly communicated during the ticket purchasing process. Given that SeaWorld is marketed as a family-oriented park, we had no reason to expect that remaining in the park into the evening would expose our young children to something this intense.
As we attempted to exit, Halloween scare actors repeatedly approached and targeted our children, who were visibly frightened. What should have been a simple walk out of the park became an incredibly upsetting experience. Our children were terrified and crying, yet the actors continued their behavior despite their obvious distress. We were simply trying to leave the park.
翻译:极其糟糕的体验。对于一个主打家庭游的主题公园来说,实在令人失望。
我们带着两个年幼的孩子参观了圣安东尼奥的海洋世界,结果几乎每个方面都让我们失望透顶。
首先,公园宣传的开园时间为上午10点半,这个时间本身就算挺晚了。但并未说明的是,实际上只有部分区域在那个时间开放;其余区域要到11点才开门,而很多游乐设施则要等到11点半左右才能使用。一整天里,有好几个游乐项目都处于关闭状态,或者时不时暂停运行。尤其是水上游乐项目,常常毫无预兆地关闭又重新开放,这让我们很难安排当天的行程。
我们还为全家人购买了全天餐饮套票,结果却发现这实在是件令人头疼的事。不同餐厅的执行方式也不一致:有些餐厅要求我们逐一下单,而另一些则允许我们一次性点齐所有餐点。什么才算是一顿饭也没有统一标准:有些场所允许同时点配菜和甜点,而有些则只允许选其一。在一家店中,我们遇到了无法扫描用餐券的问题,工作人员也未能有效提供帮助。考虑到食物价格昂贵且分量极少,整个用餐体验实在令人失望。
不过,我们这次光顾最糟糕的经历发生在晚上。我们决定在离开前到公园里吃晚餐,这样就能物尽其用、充分利用那些餐饮券了。不过那家烧烤餐厅准备食物的速度慢得离谱,导致我们出发时间被延误了。
不幸的是,当我们准备离开时,海洋世界的万圣节活动正好正在进行。虽然我们知道那里有万圣节活动,但却不知道该活动仅适合13岁及以上的人群参加。在购票过程中,我们并未看到有关年龄限制的明确说明。鉴于海洋世界被宣传为一个适合家庭游玩的主题公园,我们完全没想到让孩子在园内逗留到晚上会让他们接触到如此惊悚的内容。
当我们试图离开时,万圣节主题的惊悚表演演员们不断靠近并特意针对我们的孩子,他们显然被吓坏了。本应是一次轻松愉快的公园游玩之旅,却变成了一次极其令人痛苦的经历。我们的孩子吓得大哭起来,但那些演员们全然不顾孩子们的痛苦,依然继续着他们的表演。我们只是想离开公园而已。
