点评:Hi, I was very excited for this trip & honestly the start was really good but we were a small group & I think we were so rushed, it didn't seem fair. We paid $515 plus for a couple & I felt the whole trip was just about getting back to Q'town early. The bus driver (Shanay) was lovely but I think she was just rushing so much , it was horrible. On the way we just had 1 toilet break & a coffee break which was mostly spent in standing in queues. We never stopped even once for any scenic spot viewing as mentioned. Nope. Once we reached Mt Cook, we were given 3 hrs to be back. Just a fair opinion here, if everyone in the group is doing hooker valley track which takes 1.5 hour to reach & another 1.5 hour to come back then how can you be so strict about coming back in 3 hours. Sometimes there r road blocks, traffic on the bridges, need a break or just see the beautiful Mt Cook once you've reached on top. But no, we'd to rush back cos we started getting calls saying everyone was waiting. Ofcourse we were panicked n started walking back as soon as we can but I'd a couple of falls n hurt my right knee which I'm nursing even today, 2 weeks later. It was really unfortunate but I think this could be avoided had it not been the race against time. That day was so beautiful, nice and sunny & aoraki was absolutely stunning but we couldn't even sit there 5 mins and cherish the Beauty of this gorgeous maunga. Mind you we did not even get a chance to freshen up or go to the toilet after the long walk which was unethical. The van was waiting for us & drove away instantly. On the way back, we just drove straight to Queenstown and reached around 5.35. I mean the trip said we should be back latest around 7.30 but thanks to our driver who was in such a hurry, we were put back 2 hours early & unsatisfied with the whole experience. I heard a fellow passenger saying maybe she need to get somewhere. I really don't know the truth as a matter of fact. I still think about that day & feel it could have been such a memorable experience for us had we not taken the altitude tours n preferred some other service rather. 2 days later we did Milford sound (ofcourse with another provider, I would not do the mistake of taking altitude tours again if the first experience was not nice) and we had the best time, I can clearly say Milford sounds has to be the best trip & the experience has to be the best day of our lives. It's truly majestic. A sincere suggestion, we pay hard earned money & choose you so we can have a memorable experience but today even after 2 weeks when I think about the altitude trip I feel we could have had a much better experience if we had chosen another provider who wouldn't rush us into things for no reason (we'd time in hand as we were back 2 hours early) I just feel it was no value for money and very risky as we were made to run back on gravel roads to our vehicle which was definitely a hazard. Thanks.
翻译:嗨,我对这次旅行感到非常兴奋,说实话开始的时候感觉很好,但是我们是一个小团体,我觉得我们太匆忙了,这似乎不公平。我们为一对夫妇支付了 515 多美元,我觉得整个旅行只是为了早点回到 Q'town。巴士司机(Shanay)很可爱,但我认为她太匆忙了,太糟糕了。在路上我们只有一次上厕所和一次喝咖啡的时间,大部分时间都花在排队上。我们从来没有停下来观看任何提到的景点。没有。一旦我们到达库克山,我们就有 3 个小时的时间回来。这只是一个公平的意见,如果团队中的每个人都在走胡克山谷步道,需要 1.5 小时才能到达,再花 1.5 小时才能回来,那么你怎么能如此严格地要求在 3 小时内回来。有时会有路障,桥上有交通堵塞,需要休息一下,或者只是到达山顶后看看美丽的库克山。但没有,我们不得不赶回去,因为我们开始接到电话说大家都在等我们。当然,我们很慌张,开始尽快往回走,但我摔了几次,伤了右膝,直到 2 周后的今天,我还在护理。这真的很不幸,但我想如果不是与时间赛跑的话,这是可以避免的。那天天气如此美丽、晴朗,奥拉基山绝对令人惊叹,但我们甚至无法在那里坐 5 分钟,欣赏这座美丽的芒加山的美丽。请注意,在长途跋涉之后,我们甚至没有机会梳洗或上厕所,这是不道德的。面包车在等我们,立即开走了。在回来的路上,我们直接开车去了皇后镇,大约 5.35 到达。我的意思是,旅行社说我们应该最迟在 7.30 左右回来,但由于我们的司机太着急,我们提前 2 小时回来了,对整个体验很不满意。我听到一位乘客说,也许她需要去某个地方。事实上,我真的不知道真相。我仍然会想起那一天,觉得如果我们没有参加高海拔之旅,而是选择了其他服务,那对我们来说可能是一次难忘的经历。两天后,我们去了米尔福德峡湾(当然是和另一家供应商一起,如果第一次的体验不好,我不会再犯参加高海拔之旅的错误),我们度过了最美好的时光,我可以清楚地说米尔福德峡湾一定是最好的旅行,这次经历一定是我们一生中最美好的一天。它真的很壮观。一个真诚的建议,我们付出了辛苦赚来的钱并选择了你,这样我们就能拥有一次难忘的经历,但今天,即使过了两周,当我想起那次高海拔之旅时,我觉得如果我们选择了另一家不会无缘无故催促我们(我们提前 2 小时回来,所以时间是可以掌握的)的供应商,我们可能会有更好的体验,我只是觉得这不值得,而且非常危险,因为我们不得不在碎石路上跑回我们的车,这绝对是一个危险。谢谢。
