点评:Good driver, but pricing was inconsistent and increased multiple times
We used Walter for transfers and excursions during our trip in Costa Rica. He was communicative, punctual, and a very good driver. His vans were clean, and overall the transport side of the experience was comfortable and reliable.
However, the main issue we encountered was with pricing. We confirmed rates in advance, but once we arrived, prices were increased by about 30%, with various explanations given. This made things feel uncertain and difficult to plan.
We also noticed that excursions arranged through him came with a noticeable markup compared to booking directly. For example, activities that were around $45 per person were offered at significantly higher rates.
At the end of the trip, we had also agreed on a $75 airport transfer, but upon arrival, the price was raised by $10. We declined to pay the additional amount, and to his credit, he handled it politely—but it was still disappointing given the prior agreement and the amount we had already spent on transfers and excursions.
Overall, Walter is reliable in terms of driving and logistics, but I would strongly recommend confirming all prices very clearly in writing ahead of time and reconfirming them throughout your trip.
翻译:司机技术不错,但价格不稳定,而且多次涨价。
我们在哥斯达黎加旅行期间,一直使用沃尔特的接送服务和短途旅行。他沟通顺畅,守时,而且驾驶技术非常好。他的面包车很干净,整体来说,交通出行体验舒适可靠。
然而,我们遇到的主要问题是价格。我们事先确认了价格,但到达目的地后,价格却上涨了约30%,并给出了各种不同的解释。这让我们感到不确定,也难以安排行程。
我们还注意到,通过他安排的短途旅行价格明显高于直接预订的价格。例如,一些原本每人约45美元的活动,他提供的报价要高得多。
旅程结束时,我们还约定了75美元的机场接送服务,但到达后,价格却上涨了10美元。我们拒绝支付这笔额外的费用,值得称赞的是,他处理得也很有礼貌——但考虑到之前的约定以及我们已经在接送和短途旅行上花费的金额,这种情况仍然令人失望。总的来说,沃尔特在驾驶和后勤安排方面都很可靠,但我强烈建议您提前以书面形式非常清楚地确认所有价格,并在整个旅程中再次确认。
