点评:We visited Veragua Park as part of a cruise ship excursion from the port of Puerto Limon. The entrance road is rough but the bus was comfortable enough.
The guide in the park was informative without being over-the-top. The park was busy so we ddi feel we were always being moved along to a schedule. I would have preferred longer to look at the wildlife.
The boardwalks and paths are ,mainly easy to negotiate, but this covers mainly captive fauna. The butterfly house was extremely warm. We saw some wild species including snakes, spiders, and monkeys. The guide helped us spot creatures and also pointed out where there could be danger.
The short cable car ride in the treetops took us down to the river. It is a reasonable but not great short ride. Walking to the waterfall is on uneven paths with steps but there are hand rails and it was not a challenging walk and only 300 metres or so. There were lots of people, so it was difficult to photograph the waterfall. It is quite small and there was little flow in the river.
Our trip included lunch in the on-site cafe and this was reasonable with a vegetarian option. There were toilets at the entrance and in the butterfly house. There are longer "hiking" trails but these need to be arranged with a guide.
This was an expensive commercial experience fitting with a cruise shift agenda. We enjoyed it but if we were travelling independently we would look to visit a different eco park.
翻译:我们乘坐游轮从利蒙港出发,参加了岸上游览项目,参观了维拉瓜国家公园。公园入口处的道路崎岖不平,但巴士还算舒适。
公园里的导游讲解详尽,但又不至于过于啰嗦。公园里人很多,感觉我们一直被催促着按计划游览。我更希望有更多的时间去观赏野生动物。
木栈道和小径大多都很好走,但主要展示的是圈养动物。蝴蝶馆里非常热。我们看到了一些野生动物,包括蛇、蜘蛛和猴子。导游帮助我们辨认动物,并指出了可能存在的危险区域。
乘坐缆车穿过树顶,到达河边。这段缆车之旅虽然短暂,但还算可以接受,只是体验一般。步行前往瀑布的小路崎岖不平,有台阶,但有扶手,步行距离只有300米左右,并不难走。因为人很多,所以很难拍到瀑布的照片。瀑布很小,河水水量也很小。
我们的行程包含在园内咖啡馆享用午餐,价格合理,还有素食可选。入口处和蝴蝶馆内都设有洗手间。园内还有更长的徒步路线,但需要提前预约导游。
这是一次价格不菲的商业体验,符合邮轮行程的安排。我们玩得很开心,但如果是自由行的话,我们会选择参观其他生态公园。
