点评:Fair warning: We visited as a group and expected to pay the advertised per-person admission fee. However, upon arriving at the entrance, we were surprised to see an additional 600 pesos added to our total. When we asked what the extra charge was for, we were told it was for a tour guide.
Since we were only there to have lunch, we politely declined the tour guide. After we questioned the charge a few times, one of the staff members abruptly took the admission receipts from the group member handling our payment and walked back to the entrance tent. The other workers then began giving our van disapproving looks, and one male staff member appeared visibly angry as our group member returned to the van.
Even our van driver questioned why a tour guide would be necessary just to eat lunch. While we were in the cafeteria area, I observed other visitors and noticed that although a few had tour guides, the majority did not.
From what we experienced, there also didn't appear to be any historical, cultural, or educational component that would make a mandatory tour guide necessary. We came to enjoy the scenery and have lunch, and there was nothing that suggested a guided tour was essential to the visit.
My main concern is the lack of transparency. We had researched the attraction beforehand and knew there would be an entrance fee. However, there was no posted pricing at the entrance and no sign indicating that a tour guide was mandatory—or even available as an optional service.
The experience felt misleading, and the staff's reaction when we declined the additional charge made it even more uncomfortable. I sincerely hope the admission fees are being used to maintain the cleanliness and beauty of the area, but the lack of clear pricing and communication left us with a poor impression.

由于我们只是来吃午饭,所以礼貌地拒绝了导游。我们反复询问后,一名工作人员突然从负责付款的团友手中拿走门票收据,径直走回了入口帐篷。其他工作人员开始用不满的目光打量我们的车,其中一名男工作人员在我们团友回到车上时显得非常生气。
就连我们的司机也质疑,为什么只是吃个午饭就需要导游。在餐厅用餐时,我观察了其他游客,发现虽然有些人请了导游,但大多数人并没有。
就我们的体验而言,这里似乎也没有任何历史、文化或教育意义,需要强制导游。我们来这里是为了欣赏风景和享用午餐,没有任何迹象表明参观必须参加导览团。
我最不满的是缺乏透明度。我们事先已经了解过这个景点,知道需要门票。然而,入口处既没有标价,也没有任何指示牌表明必须参加导览团——甚至连导览团是否作为可选服务都没有。
这次体验让人感觉被误导了,当我们拒绝额外付费时,工作人员的反应更是让我们感到不舒服。我真心希望门票收入能用于维护该地区的清洁和美观,但缺乏清晰的价格和沟通让我们印象很差。
