点评:Kom, who led our trip to Doi Suthep-Pui, made the trip a grand success. Kom, of Akha heritage, speaks excellent English and is very knowledgeable about the flora, fauna, and people of the region. Although some of the yearly fires had begun early, making the visibility less clear than earlier in the month would have been, we still were able to enjoy some splendid views as we hiked through the mountain forest. The trail was a little more difficult than we anticipated as there are some very steep sections, but Kom made sure that everyone was doing OK as the hike progressed. The trip culminated with lunch in a Hmong village where coffee is grown, and the coffee we were served during lunch was the best I’ve had in Thailand. Our only complaint about the trip is that the journey to and from the trailhead, about an hour each way, was in a songthaew up winding mountain roads, so anyone prone to motion sickness should definitely take medication before each trip. Overall, a worthwhile trip, well worth the cost.
翻译:Kom带领我们前往素贴山-普伊山,这次旅行非常成功。Kom是阿卡族人,英语说得非常流利,而且对当地的动植物和居民都非常了解。虽然一些年度山火提前燃起,导致能见度不如月初,但我们在山林中徒步时仍然欣赏到了壮丽的景色。这条徒步路线比我们预想的要难一些,因为有些路段非常陡峭,但Kom始终确保每个人的行程顺利。行程的最后一站是在一个种植咖啡的苗族村庄享用午餐,午餐时喝到的咖啡是我在泰国喝过最好喝的。我们对这次旅行唯一的抱怨是往返徒步起点的路程,单程大约一个小时,需要乘坐双条车沿着蜿蜒的山路行驶,所以容易晕车的人每次出行前都应该服用晕车药。总而言之,这是一次非常值得的旅行,物超所值。
