点评:Hop on hop off bus this only applies to! We went as a family of 4 on the hop on hop off bus. In theory it sounds great. We were told every 20 mins and hop on and off where ever you like. So being a family we thought excellent we will get to see more of the island. The bus did not infact run 20 mins but 30 instead. And while we were told you may need to stand, we assumed for the premium price we paid, it would be maybe one or 2 standing. No we were packed in so tight you could taste the breath of the person next to you. You couldn’t see out of the windows to even just sit and enjoy the ride. The bus was so full we couldn’t stop at stops to let more people in. We decided not to get off as we couldn’t risk spending one hour in a location with a toddler if the bus came past and was too full all for a photo. We wouldn’t of purchased tickets if we knew if was half hourly as even that’s to long to wait even to take a photo and hop on hop off half hourly means you could only do a couple of stops anyway. Given the premium price you pay, the number of tourists buying them they should run the bus far more often or cap the number of tickets sold.
The driver was friendly and I’m sure he was told to pack them in as full as possible.
翻译:这种“随上随下巴士”服务就是专为我们这类游客设计的!我们一家四口乘坐了这种巴士。理论上来说这听起来很不错。工作人员告诉我们,巴士每20分钟一班,我们可以随时上下车。作为一家人,我们觉得这太棒了,这样就能游览到岛上更多的地方。但实际上,巴士每隔30分钟才来一班。虽然工作人员说过车上可能需要站着,但我们原以为既然支付了高价,最多也就一两个人需要站着而已。不,当时车上人挤得要命,你甚至能闻到旁边人的气息。窗户也完全看不见外面,根本没法坐着好好欣赏沿途风景。车厢里太挤了,以至于我们无法在站点停车让更多人上车。我们决定不下车,因为为了拍一张照片,我们可不想冒着风险带着幼儿在那种地方滞留一个小时——万一那时正好有一辆挤得满满的巴士经过呢。如果我们早知道班车是每半小时一班,我们就不会买票了。因为就算每半小时一班,等待时间也太长了——连拍张照、上下车都来不及。而且每半小时一班的话,实际上也只能游览几个站点而已。考虑到票价如此昂贵,以及购买人数众多,他们应该增加发车频率,或者限制售票数量才对。
司机很友善,我敢肯定他是被要求把车上挤满乘客的。
