点评:We thoroughly loved this tour.
The sight of the spectacular Ruby Falls was well worth the admission price and I would recommend it to everyone.
That said, there were some issues that I think anyone going should be aware of:
Tickets are timed, so buy ahead online if you can - otherwise you may have to wait.
When we went tours were leaving every 10 minutes. This means that there are six groups sharing the walkways at any given time. This would not be a huge problem except for the fact that the groups were very large. We had more than 30 people in our group and one guide (who was lovely). We were lucky enough to be in the front of the group, but I am sure those at the back were unable to hear anything the guide said when we were moving, although there was an initial stop for a video and a second stop for a short anecdote for the entire group huddled together, as well as the timed stop at the Falls - just a few minutes, but plenty of time for photos and a short light & music show. It was gorgeous!
While making our way to and from the Falls, we stopped multiple times where we were instructed to stand against the wall to let other outgoing groups walk by or to wait until we were allowed to squeeze past a group coming in the other direction.
The entire tour took about 1.5 hours, with some tight, narrow, wet, and low areas throughout. The pace was casual and we were not rushed.
Although the Falls were spectacular, I felt that the whole experience could have benefited from smaller groups and a little more time to appreciate our surroundings.
翻译:我们非常喜欢这次旅行。
壮观的红宝石瀑布景色绝对物有所值,我会向所有人推荐它。
话虽如此,我认为任何去的人都应该注意一些问题:
门票是定时的,所以如果可以的话,请提前在网上购买 - 否则您可能需要等待。
我们去的时候,旅行团每 10 分钟出发一次。这意味着在任何给定时间都有六个团体共享走道。除了团体人数非常多之外,这不会是一个大问题。我们这个团体有 30 多人,还有一个导游(他很可爱)。我们很幸运能站在队伍的最前面,但我敢肯定,当我们移动时,后面的人听不到导游说的任何话,尽管最初有一个停下来拍视频,第二个停下来让整个团体挤在一起讲一个简短的轶事,以及在瀑布的定时停留 - 只有几分钟,但有足够的时间拍照和观看短暂的灯光和音乐表演。太美了!
在往返瀑布的途中,我们多次停下来,被要求靠墙站立,让其他外出的团体先行,或者等到我们被允许挤过从另一个方向来的团体。
整个旅程大约需要 1.5 小时,途中有一些狭窄、潮湿和低洼的地方。节奏很悠闲,我们也不着急。
虽然瀑布很壮观,但我觉得如果团体人数少一些,花更多的时间欣赏周围的环境,整个体验会更好。
