点评:Tom was incredible. He picked us up, gave us water shoes and drove us to the trailhead, and led us to a very pretty waterfall at Makaleha. He even brought us bananas picked from his house! He led us through trees, roots and river crossings and pointed us cool trees, flowers and rocks and stories about then. Though I'm sure you can do this hike without a guide, having Tom was really helpful for us as the trail isn't really obvious and when it is obvious, there are multiple routes you could take and end up in wrong trails. My wife and I was able to enjoy this hike without being worried and checking alltrails or any maps! Throughouly enjoyed this hike of jungle gym with bamboo forests, rocks and the stream crossings. And this was all before we even reached the waterfall, which was really pretty and Tom even guided my wife on where to climb and how to jump which was really helpful to her as she mentioned she avoided getting bruised by unseemingly shallow rocks on the side! Overall 10/10 recommend.
Also, Tom is a pretty interesting person and very easy to have a conversation with, so there was no awkwardness in the whole hike! He checked and made sure we could follow his pace.
翻译:汤姆真是太棒了!他开车来接我们,给我们准备了涉水鞋,然后带我们去了马卡莱哈 (Makaleha) 一个非常漂亮的瀑布。他甚至还给我们带了自家摘的香蕉!他带领我们穿过树林、树根和河流,一路给我们指点那些奇特的树木、花朵和岩石,还讲解了它们背后的故事。虽然我相信不用向导也能走完这条徒步路线,但汤姆的带领对我们来说真的非常有帮助,因为这条路并不十分明显,即使看起来比较明显,也有很多岔路,很容易走错。我和妻子完全不用担心,不用查地图,就能尽情享受这次徒步之旅!我们非常享受这段充满挑战的徒步之旅,沿途有竹林、岩石和溪流,就像在丛林里一样。而这仅仅是我们到达瀑布之前的经历,瀑布本身就非常漂亮,汤姆还指导我妻子哪里可以攀爬,哪里可以跳跃,这对她来说真的很有用,因为她提到自己避免了被看似很浅的岩石划伤!总而言之,强烈推荐!
此外,汤姆是个很有趣的人,很容易相处,所以整个徒步旅行过程都很轻松愉快!他还会留意我们,确保我们能跟上他的步伐。
