点评:I hate to give a negative review but I have to be honest. Upon calling to make reservation, woman I spoke with was very nice and that pretty much sold me on choosing this airboat tour. She explained to me that in this summer heat 10am was the best tour to take as 11am it would be getting too hot and we would see less gators. She also said since it was a slow season we would get 5% off- even better! So the 5 of us drove the 1 hour drive (getting three teen boys up and out early on vacation is not the easiest task).
When we checked in they said they were down 1 tour guide / captain. We were very understanding as they said the captain was not feeling well - so we were fine with it! And asked if we could take the 11am tour and he would give us a discount. Well the discount was the 5% she already quoted me over the phone.
We finally got on our way at 11:30. I guess we were expecting the airboat to go fast- my mistake for not asking. Also this tour does not have the headsets so captain can speak to you. They do provide headphone to cancel the noise.
Captain Fred was a nice enough man- however we would have appreciated him telling us a little more than 2 species of birds and slowing down when a gator appeared. We were curious about the traps that were in the water and also saw two fisherman in the center of the pond. No mention of any of that.
While we quickly realized it being too hot for the gators to come to surface- that is not the problem of the tour guide or company- we would have enjoyed a little speed or something to make up for the lack of gators.
All in all it was a bit underwhelming. Again sorry to give a negative review
翻译:我很不愿意给出负面评价,但必须实话实说。打电话预订时,与我通话的女士非常友善,这让我决定选择这家的水上飞机游览项目。她告诉我,在夏日的酷暑中,上午10点是最佳的游览时间,因为11点后天气会变得太热,能看到的短吻鳄也会变少。她还说,由于现在是旅游淡季,我们可以享受5%的折扣——真是太棒了!于是我们五个人开车一小时才到达(要在假期一大早叫醒三个十几岁的男孩并带他们出门,可不是件容易的事)。
办理登记手续时,他们告诉我们少了一名导游/船长。鉴于他们说船长身体不适,我们表示充分理解,也完全没意见!我们还询问能否参加上午11点的游览,并希望能得到折扣。结果那个折扣其实就是她之前在电话里跟我说的5%优惠。
最终,我们在11点半才出发。我想我们原本期望气垫船能开得快一些——没事先询问是我的疏忽。另外,这次旅游并没有提供耳机让船长能和我们交谈;不过他们提供了降噪耳机。
弗雷德船长人倒是不错,不过要是他能多介绍一些鸟类种类,或者在看到短吻鳄时减速行驶,我们会更感激。我们对水里的捕兽器也很好奇,还看到池塘中央有两个钓鱼的人。但这些内容他全都只字未提。虽然我们很快意识到水温太高,短吻鳄不会浮出水面——但这并非导游或旅行社的错——不过我们本来希望能有点速度感,或者做些别的来弥补见不到短吻鳄的缺憾。
总的来说,这次体验有点令人失望。很抱歉给出了负面评价。
