点评:We used Green Discovery as we were staying at the
Inthira Hotel (nice place to stay). We were glad we did as our afternoon tour (3 hour Kayak and cave) was excellent. Whilst we had booked a group tour it ended up being just the 2 of us. Si (hope that is spelt correctly) was probably the best guide we've had on our month + long Asian adventure.
We were transported out of the lively Vang Vieng, up river by our spritely driver, a well known individual in VV. The first part of the tour we were totally on our own on the river, gently paddling /steering the canoe through stunning scenery and the odd gentle rapid, whilst Si in his canoe provided commentary, and answered our questions.
We arrived at the caves, walked a short distance, swapping canoe for rubber ring. We pulled ourselves through the amazing cave, before doing the second half walking (some in ankle deep water so glad of our water shoes) still through this large cave system. We were SO fortunate to be totally on our own the whole time. There were 50+ tubes at the start, waiting to be used! After a short walk we were back in canoes heading back to VV. At this point we passed several of the pit stops with music and drinks for the younger set who were tubing down the river. Been there, done that, but many years ago now. It was the perfect way to spend a VV afternoon with a sufficient breeze on the river to make it relaxing rather than hard work.
翻译:我们住在 Inthira 酒店(不错的住宿地点),因此使用了 Green Discovery。我们很高兴我们这样做了,因为我们的下午之旅(3 小时皮划艇和洞穴之旅)非常棒。虽然我们预订了团体旅游,但最终只有我们两个人。Si(希望拼写正确)可能是我们一个月多亚洲冒险之旅中遇到的最好的导游。
我们被活泼的司机送出了热闹的万荣,顺着河流而上,他是万荣的一位名人。旅程的第一部分,我们完全独自在河上,轻轻地划着/操纵独木舟穿过壮丽的风景和偶尔的缓缓急流,而 Si 则在他的独木舟上提供评论,并回答我们的问题。
我们到达洞穴,走了一小段路,将独木舟换成橡胶圈。我们自己穿过了神奇的洞穴,然后进行了第二段步行(有些人在脚踝深的水中,很高兴我们穿着水鞋),仍然穿过这个巨大的洞穴系统。我们非常幸运,整个过程都是独自一人。起点处有 50 多个橡皮艇等着我们去使用!走了一小段路后,我们又坐上独木舟返回 VV。这时,我们经过了几个停靠站,那里有音乐和饮料,供正在顺流而下的年轻人享用。我们去过那里,做过那件事,但已经是很多年前的事了。这是度过 VV 下午的完美方式,河上有足够的微风,让人放松而不是辛苦。
