点评:I rarely leave negative reviews, but the Auschwitz-Birkenau tour we booked through this company (via HelloTickets.com) was such an appalling experience that I feel compelled to warn others: do not book with them.
We booked tickets 14 days in advance for an 8:00am entry. Instead, less than 12 hours before, we were told to be ready at 4:00am. We arrived at Auschwitz by 5:30am, two hours before the gates even opened and were left standing outside in the rain with no explanation.
When the gates did open, we queued for five more hours with zero guidance from our so-called tour leader. Only at the ticket window were we informed that the first available English-language tour wouldn’t begin until 1:00pm, five hours later than scheduled and completely different from what we had booked.
Exhausted and frustrated, we had to join a Polish-language tour (which we couldn’t understand) and ended up buying a guidebook just to follow along. To make matters worse, we were abandoned afterwards and had to pay out of pocket to get back to Krakow.
This was not the meaningful, respectful, or organized experience promised. It was chaotic, misleading, and disrespectful, not only to us as customers, but to the significance of visiting Auschwitz.
The service we received bore no resemblance to what we booked. We expect a full refund, but more importantly, we want to stop others from being misled the way we were.
Save yourself the stress and disappointment. Do not book with this company.
翻译:我很少留下负面评价,但我们通过这家公司(HelloTickets.com)预订的奥斯维辛-比克瑙之旅真是一次糟糕的经历,我忍不住要提醒大家:千万别通过他们预订。
我们提前14天订了早上8点入场的票。结果不到12小时前,他们就告诉我们凌晨4点就得准备好。我们早上5点半就到了奥斯维辛,比大门打开的时间提前了两个小时,却被留在外面淋雨,没有任何解释。
大门终于开了,我们又排了5个小时的队,所谓的领队一点指引都没有。直到售票窗口,我们才被告知,第一个英文导览团要到下午1点才开始,比预定时间晚了5个小时,而且和我们预订的时间完全不一样。
我们精疲力竭,沮丧不已,不得不参加一个波兰语团(我们听不懂),最后还买了一本旅游指南,勉强跟上。更糟糕的是,之后我们被抛弃了,不得不自掏腰包返回克拉科夫。
这完全不符合我们承诺的有意义、尊重他人、井然有序的体验。它混乱不堪,充满误导,而且不尊重我们作为顾客,也违背了参观奥斯维辛的意义。
我们收到的服务与我们预订的完全不一样。我们希望获得全额退款,但更重要的是,我们希望避免其他人像我们一样被误导。
避免压力和失望。千万不要预订这家公司。
