点评:Our week aboard the Painted Pelican was nothing short of extraordinary, easily a top 3 trip of my life, and I’ve been fortunate to travel on some pretty amazing adventures.
Captain Joe was the absolute best. So pleasant, incredibly knowledgeable, and impressively well-traveled. He seemed to know exactly where to go and exactly when to get there for the most breathtaking views. Every anchorage, every island, every moment felt perfectly timed and thoughtfully curated. You could completely relax knowing you were in the hands of someone so experienced and genuinely kind.
And then there’s Chef Ariq… wow. Beyond talented. Beyond humble. We didn’t even realize the extent of his accolades until after we stepped off the boat, which makes his quiet confidence even more impressive. Every single meal was outstanding, truly better than any restaurant we visited during the trip. If Ariq is your chef, take my advice: eat as many meals on board as possible. Each dish was creative, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious.
The combination of Captain Joe’s expertise and Ariq’s culinary magic made for an unforgettable week. The Painted Pelican is something special and the crew is what makes it exceptional!
Already dreaming of our next boat trip.

乔船长绝对是最棒的。他非常和蔼可亲,知识渊博,而且见多识广。他似乎总能精准地找到最佳观景点,并知道何时到达才能欣赏到最令人叹为观止的美景。每一个锚地、每一座岛屿、每一个瞬间都经过精心安排,时机恰到好处。知道自己被一位经验丰富、真诚友善的船长掌控着,你就可以完全放松身心。
还有主厨阿里克……哇!他才华横溢,却又谦逊低调。直到下船后,我们才意识到他所获得的赞誉,这更让我们对他那份沉稳的自信印象深刻。每一餐都堪称完美,远胜过我们在旅途中去过的任何一家餐厅。如果阿里克是你的厨师,听我的劝告:尽可能多地在船上用餐。每一道菜都创意十足,摆盘精美,而且绝对美味。
乔船长的专业技能和阿里克精湛的厨艺相结合,造就了一段难忘的旅程。“彩绘鹈鹕号”本身就非常特别,而船员们更是让它锦上添花!
我们已经开始憧憬下一次的航海之旅了。
