点评:This 1-Star review is for Kili Beyond Adventures and Albert Lima. I had booked a room at Sopa Lodge Tarangire. However, the lodge does not do safaris and they referred to Stephen Arwa. Stephen and I negotiated a price for my desired itinerary.
The day before departure, I got a text from Albert Lewa of Kili Beyond Adventures. He told me jStephen Arwa was based in Kenya and that he had would be handling my itinerary. I thought all was well.
FIFTEEN minutes before my scheduled pickup, Lewa of Kili Beyond Adventures texted me that he would not honor the price agreed to with Arwa and I must pay an additional $125. I said no; he sent a rep to discuss the matter. The rep said I must pay the additional $125 or the trip would be canceled.
So,in the presence of the Kili Beyond rep, I used my phone to contact companies I had spoken to earlier about this itinerary. When I showed him that another company could pick me up in an hour at the agreed—upon price, Lewa agreed to an additional fee of only $25. For simplicity, I agreed but regretted giving this many any business.
If trying to renegotiate the deal and gouge me wasn’t enough for a 1 star, my guide and I arrive at Tarangire NP to learn the registration was incorrect: the number of days was wrong. Thus, we had to return to main gate in traffic and dust of day trippers to fix it. THEN we had to to swap vehicles because Beyond Kili needed the one I started with. This waste of MY time and the inconvenience was not considered.
I highly recommend finding providers other than Kili Beyond and Albert Lewa.
翻译:这篇 1 星评论是针对 Kili Beyond Adventures 和 Albert Lima 的。我预订了 Sopa Lodge Tarangire 的房间。但是,旅馆不提供狩猎旅行,他们推荐了 Stephen Arwa。Stephen 和我协商了我想要的行程的价格。
出发前一天,我收到了 Kili Beyond Adventures 的 Albert Lewa 发来的短信。他告诉我,Stephen Arwa 住在肯尼亚,他将负责我的行程。我以为一切都很好。
在我预定的接机时间前十五分钟,Kili Beyond Adventures 的 Lewa 给我发短信说,他不会遵守与 Arwa 商定的价格,我必须额外支付 125 美元。我说不;他派了一名代表来讨论此事。代表说我必须支付额外的 125 美元,否则行程将被取消。
因此,在 Kili Beyond 代表的陪同下,我用手机联系了之前就此行程谈过的公司。当我告诉他另一家公司可以在一小时内以商定的价格来接我时,Lewa 同意只收取 25 美元的额外费用。为简单起见,我同意了,但后悔给了这么多生意。
如果试图重新谈判交易并敲诈我还不足以获得 1 星,那么我和我的导游到达 Tarangire NP 时发现登记不正确:天数是错误的。因此,我们不得不在交通拥堵和一日游游客的尘土中返回大门来解决这个问题。然后我们不得不换车,因为 Beyond Kili 需要我一开始用的那辆车。这浪费了我的时间,而且没有考虑到不便。
我强烈建议寻找 Kili Beyond 和 Albert Lewa 以外的供应商。
