点评:We stayed in Thasos from 1st of August until 8th and since we prefer not to stay only on the beach we decided to go on cruise
We saw these company advertise in Potos and we came to decide between Blue Lagoon cruise with stops in Pachis, Port Vathi, Blue Lagoon and Glyfoneri and Undersee Explorer with stops in Salonikios, Arsanas, Alyki and Notos.
Since we stayed in Skala Kalirachis, we decided to go with Undersee Explorer, because we already explored Pachis, Skala Marion and Glyfoneri area by car
So, we started on 07.08 in the morning very excited to see the cliffs and the beautiful sightseeing around Giola, Archangel Michael Monastery and finally Alyki.
But, after the first stop, Salonikios, the captain announced that due to the very bad weather (? one of the crew members said that one day before there were 5 meters height wawes) we have to go the plan B, and instead of going to Alyki, the route will change to Notos, Skala Marion, Kefalas.
So, you can imagine that most of the people from this cruise were very disappointed, us included; instead of enjoying that part of the beautiful Thasos Island, with natural beauty, in the end we came to see actually the part that we already seen it by car, which was worse than if we had chosen the Blue Lagoon cruise
But, in the end, in my mind, although I was very disappointed, I said that safety comes first and it was like it was.
After 6 very boring and uninterested hours we returned to Potos, and we decide to go by car to at least see from the road that part of the island (it was not the same but… it was something)
So, we stop at Giola, and after we had a look at the beautiful natural pool, we decided to drink something at Giola Tavern; after we gave our order, I asked the personnel if the spectacle with the high waves was nice; and the answer was and I quote “which waves? “. So, you can imagine our surprise.
Afterwards we went to the Archangel Michael Monastery, we enjoyed the sightseeing and we bought something from the gift shop, where you can imagine, I put the same question: how big were the waves this morning; the answer was similar to the one we received at Giola Tavern.
So, now I wonder, it was really the bad weather who determined the crew to change to plan B or their greed for money and instead of going for a longer trip as it should, they gone for plan B for a shorter one (Skala Marion)
I really wonder how many people have been really to Alyki with this company
And another question which popped in my had after that was, if the bad weather was really there, they probably (just my opinion here) knew about it before we started the trip, but instead of announcing us about the change of plan, with maybe the options of postponed the trip to another day, or a refund, they decided to start the trip and afterward to announce the change of plan, leaving us with no option whatsoever
So, sorry about this long review about this company but I really want people who wants to deal/book with this company, to put all the questions and maybe get the right answers and not be in the same situation like we were
翻译:我们从8月1日到8日都待在萨索斯岛。由于我们不喜欢只待在海滩上,便决定去乘船游览。
我们在波托斯看到了这些旅游公司的广告,随后在两家公司之间做选择:一家是提供帕奇斯、瓦西港、蓝湖以及格利福内里等景点游览的“蓝湖号”;另一家则是提供萨洛尼基奥斯、阿尔萨纳斯、阿利基及诺托斯等景点游览的“海底探险号”。
由于我们住在斯卡拉卡利拉希斯,因此最终选择了“海底探险号”,毕竟我们已经去过帕奇斯了。驾车游览斯卡拉马里昂和格利福内里地区
8月7日早晨,我们满怀兴奋地出发了,期待着欣赏吉奥拉、圣米迦勒修道院以及最终的阿利基周围的悬崖与美景。
然而,在第一站萨洛尼基奥斯之后,船长宣布由于天气极其恶劣(有船员说前一天还有5米高的巨浪),我们不得不执行计划B:不再前往阿利基,而是改道前往诺托斯、斯卡拉马里昂和凯法拉斯。可以想象,这次游轮旅行中的大多数人都非常失望,我们也不例外;我们本想欣赏塔索斯岛上自然美景众多的迷人景色,结果却只看到了之前开车时已经见过的那些地方,情况甚至比选择蓝色泻湖游轮之旅还要糟糕。
不过,虽然当时我非常失望,但最后我想,安全才是最重要的,事情也就这样了。
在度过了6个小时极其无聊且毫无趣味的时光后,我们回到了波托斯。我们决定开车去,至少从路上看看岛上的那个区域(虽然和预期的不一样,但……也算有点收获吧)。
于是我们在吉奥拉停下车,欣赏完那个美丽的自然泳池后,决定在吉奥拉酒馆喝点东西。点完单后,我问工作人员巨浪翻涌的壮观景象是否值得一看,得到的回答是——原话是:“什么浪?”可以想象我们当时有多惊讶。
之后我们前往圣米迦勒大天使修道院。我们欣赏了沿途的风景,还在纪念品商店买了些东西。可以想象,我又问了同样的问题:今天早上浪有多大?得到的回答与我们在Giola Tavern听到的相似。
所以现在我在想,究竟是恶劣的天气促使船员们改用计划B,还是他们的贪财之心作祟,才没有按原计划进行一次更长的航行呢?他们改用了计划B,选择了一条更短的路线(斯卡拉马里昂)。
我真的很好奇,到底有多少人真的随这家公司去过阿利基。
之后我脑子里又冒出一个问题:如果当时天气真的恶劣,他们很可能(只是我的推测)在我们出发前就知道了情况。但他们却没有告知我们计划有变,也没有提供将行程延期到另一天或退款之类的选择。他们决定先出发,事后才宣布计划有变,让我们完全束手无策。
所以,很抱歉写了一篇这么长的关于这家公司的评论,但我真心希望那些想要与这家公司合作或预订服务的人能提出所有疑问,或许能得到正确的答复,从而避免陷入和我们一样的境地。
