点评:Despite booking 9+ months in advance we found ourselves with a guide who did not speak English whilst we did not speak Spanish. There was no option to change the trip in any way so that we could go with an English speaking guide. The walking peak was very enjoyable, and the area was beautiful.
However, for the ascent of Alpamayo our guide gave no instruction of how we were to travel over the glacier or deal with the cravasse hazard. My partner became audibly scared and tired, which was completely ignored by the guide who was the whole time intent on carrying on up Alpamayo, rather than considering whether this was a good idea.
As we transferred to Huayana Potosi we had the bizarre experience of lunch in a garage. Our guide for Potosi was better, but the altitude prevented us summiting.
At the time of booking we thought it was a good thing to be using a local company, but on reflection an international company with robust service and safety standards would have been a much better decision!
翻译:尽管提前 9 个多月预订,我们发现我们的导游不会说英语,而我们也不会说西班牙语。没有任何选择以任何方式改变行程,这样我们就可以和英语导游一起去。徒步山顶非常享受,而且这个地区很漂亮。
然而,在攀登阿尔帕马约时,我们的导游没有告诉我们如何穿越冰川或应对冰裂缝的危险。我的搭档明显感到害怕和疲倦,导游完全忽略了这一点,他一直专注于继续攀登阿尔帕马约,而不是考虑这是否是一个好主意。
当我们转移到华亚纳波托西时,我们在车库里吃了一顿奇怪的午餐。我们前往波托西的导游更好,但海拔高度阻止我们登顶。
在预订时,我们认为使用当地公司是一件好事,但经过反思,选择一家拥有强大服务和安全标准的国际公司会是一个更好的决定!
