点评：Beautiful but be cautious of persistent guides
They are truly beautiful — a natural wonder of Madagascar. My daughter loved it, especially being able to play in the mud. The admission fee was worth it for the experience and scenery.
However, be cautious of the guides. They often insist on accompanying you, even if you say no. It really isn’t necessary to have a guide, especially if you speak English, as most can only point, take photos for you, or tell you where to stand. Despite saying no several times, one guide kept taking my daughter’s hand and showing her where to go. I didn’t want to cause a scene, but it was uncomfortable. He followed us the entire time and wouldn’t let us leave until we paid him.
While we were there, we were also approached repeatedly by people offering to rub mud on us, give foot massages, or paint our faces. It became overwhelming, and we left earlier than planned because of the constant touching and pressure to accept services.
That being said, I would still highly recommend visiting — it’s a stunning and unique place. Just be prepared to say “no” firmly unless you’re happy to accept the extra attention or massages.

翻译：风景优美，但要小心执着的导游
它们真的美极了——马达加斯加的自然奇观。我女儿很喜欢，尤其是能在泥巴里玩。考虑到体验和美景，门票还是很值得的。
不过，要小心导游。他们经常坚持要陪你，即使你拒绝。其实没必要请导游，尤其是如果你会说英语的话，因为大多数导游只会指路、拍照或告诉你站在哪里。尽管我多次拒绝，但一位导游还是牵着我女儿的手，给她指路。我不想引起什么骚动，但那感觉很不舒服。他全程跟着我们，不付钱就不让我们离开。
我们在那里的时候，还不断有人主动上前，主动提出给我们抹泥巴、足底按摩或脸部彩绘。我们感到不知所措，因为不断的触摸和被迫接受服务的压力，我们比计划提前离开了。
话虽如此，我仍然强烈推荐去参观——这是一个令人惊叹且独一无二的地方。除非您乐意接受额外的关注或按摩，否则请做好坚定地说“不”的准备。
