点评:Once our pick up and drop off transfer were arranged (see comments below), this was a very pleasant full day of walking in Chilean National Park. Our guides, Mr Ram and Anan (??) were extremely knowledgable and attentive. We saw many types of plants and birds and ended the afternoon watching a rhino finish up his snack before laying down for a snooze.
About a month prior to the tour, I had contacted the tour operator regarding a transfer. The booking said transfer was included, but I suspected because we were in Kassra (a 50 minute drive from Sauraha),, we would have an additional fee. I didn’t hear from them. Repeated messages through TripAdvisor did not yield any response. The night before our tour, I had to have our hotel contact CANTravels (we did not have phone capacity with our data plan) and at 6 PM, while we were at dinner, the first communication came in. From then until near 11 PM, I was back-and-forth with them being quite annoyed at their lack of communication until the last minute. It was finally settled, but I was not impressed with the lack of response when I messaged them 23 days prior.
If you are looking to see animals, this is not the tour for you. If you were looking to spend a day walking as opposed to riding on a vehicle, this is definitely the tour for you! We had come to Chitwan after a 10 day trek and really enjoyed the walk.
My final comment is on the lunch included. A huge amount of stir fried rice and mono. Very poor quality and packed in containers that leaked in our packs. I would suggest to the tour operator to use something better for carrying, like a sandwich and fruit.
In conclusion, for an active day of walking this is great. But if you are here to see animals, do the jeep tours (which we also did and had an amazing experience with!)
翻译:接送安排妥当后(详见下方评论),我们在智利国家公园度过了非常愉快的一天。我们的向导Ram先生和Anan(?)知识渊博,热情周到。我们看到了许多种类的植物和鸟类,并在下午结束时目睹了一头犀牛享用完点心后躺下休息。
大约在行程开始前一个月,我联系了旅行社询问接送事宜。预订信息显示包含接送,但我怀疑由于我们住在卡斯拉(距离索拉哈50分钟车程),可能需要额外付费。之后我一直没有收到他们的回复。我通过TripAdvisor多次留言,也没有任何回应。出发前一晚,我不得不让酒店联系 CANTravels(我们的手机流量套餐不够用),直到晚上 6 点,我们正在吃晚饭的时候,才收到他们的第一条消息。从那时起一直到晚上 11 点左右,我和他们来回沟通,因为他们直到最后一刻才回复,这让我非常恼火。最终行程安排妥当了,但我对他们 23 天前发信息后却杳无音信的态度非常不满。
如果你想看动物,这个旅行团不适合你。但如果你想花一天时间徒步旅行而不是乘坐交通工具,那这个旅行团绝对适合你!我们徒步 10 天后来到奇特旺,非常享受这次徒步旅行。
最后我想说说包含的午餐。一大份炒饭和莫诺(一种用豆制品做的菜)。质量很差,而且装在漏水的容器里,弄得我们背包里到处都是。我建议旅行社提供更方便携带的食物,比如三明治和水果。
总之,对于喜欢徒步旅行的人来说,这里很棒。但如果你是为了观赏动物而来,那就参加吉普车之旅吧(我们也参加了,体验非常棒!)
