点评:Great communication via WhatsApp from Gede prior to the day. My daughter and I had a full day excursion with our driver Komang. We were picked up from our hotel in Tulamben at 1am as we had booked to climb Mount Batur to see the sunrise. Komang was an excellent driver on roads I would have struggled to drive in daytime but he managed it all in the dark navigating the potholes and narrow lanes. Having completed our climb and return to base, we were taken to a coffee plantation - we hadn't booked this but it was an excellent stop and much needed after our early morning excursion. Fascinating to learn all about Luwak coffee and to try the different types. From here we were taken to Pura Tirta Empul where we took part in the water purification ritual under the guidance of Komang who was always helpful and attentive to our needs. After a lunch stop we went on to Pura Gunug Kawi temple and then to the Tegallalung Rice Terraces before being dropped off at our hotel in Ubud. A long but brilliant day made all the better by Komang.
翻译:出发前,Gede通过WhatsApp与我们保持了良好的沟通。我和女儿与司机Komang一起进行了一整天的游览。凌晨1点,我们从图兰奔的酒店出发,因为我们预定了攀登巴图尔火山观看日出。Komang的驾驶技术非常出色,即使在白天我都难以驾驭的路段,他也能轻松应对,在黑暗中穿梭于坑洼和狭窄的道路上。登顶并返回酒店后,我们被带到了一个咖啡种植园——虽然我们没有预订这个行程,但这却是一个绝佳的休憩点,在清晨的攀登之后,我们非常需要放松一下。了解麝香猫咖啡的知识并品尝不同种类的咖啡,真是令人着迷。之后,我们前往圣泉寺(Pura Tirta Empul),在Komang的指导下参与了净水仪式。Komang始终热情周到,乐于助人。午餐后,我们前往古努卡维寺(Pura Gunug Kawi),然后是德加拉隆梯田(Tegallalung Rice Terraces),最后被送回乌布的酒店。漫长而精彩的一天,因为有 Komang 的陪伴而更加完美。
