点评:We booked the deluxe package as part of our anniversary trip to the area. It was the perfect couples activity! Being 3+ hour drive away I was nervous when we started to run behind on the road. I called ahead and the staff were more than helpful and reassuring. What I didn’t expect was to be prepared for all the dad joke our tour guides, Jack and Diane, had for us. They were great! I would recommend staying as close to the front as you can. It’s hard to hear in the cave and you don’t want to miss all the history and cool facts. I would also suggest bringing 2 pairs of socks in addition to the ones you wear. Once you get to the dock you will need to remove your shoes before boarding your kayak. Not only is it cold in the cave but inevitably your socks will get wet. I kept 2 pairs in my hoodie and it paid off. I used 1 pair to layer up and the other on my hands during the excursion! Then once we got out I put my dry “hand socks on my feet and took my wet ones off. We also splurged and got the add on picture package. I thought this would be a great idea so we wouldn’t have to take our phones and risk them getting wet. In retrospect I would forgo the package and just take my water proof phone lanyard instead. They do make an effort to take individualized pictures on the tour and some of the things in the cave. However, you get ALL the pictures from that groups time slot sent to your email at the end and it was a lot to go through. Being “hands free” did allow me to be more present and take in all the cave has to offer. I just felt like more personalized pictures of us, in the tandem kayak, could have been better. Either way it made for a memorable adventure that was worth the money.
翻译:我们预订了豪华套餐,作为周年纪念旅行的一部分。这真是一次完美的双人活动!因为距离目的地有三个多小时的车程,当我们在路上开始延误时,我非常紧张。我提前打了电话,工作人员非常热情友好,让我安心不少。让我意想不到的是,我们的导游杰克和黛安给我们讲了好多老爸式的笑话。他们太棒了!我建议大家尽量坐在靠近洞口的位置。洞穴里听不太清楚,你肯定不想错过任何历史故事和有趣的小知识。我还建议除了自己穿的袜子之外,再带两双袜子。到达码头后,你需要在登上皮划艇之前脱掉鞋子。洞穴里不仅很冷,而且你的袜子肯定会湿。我把两双袜子放在连帽衫里,事实证明这个决定非常明智。我用一双袜子来保暖,另一双在游览过程中用来戴在手上!上岸后,我把干爽的“手套袜”套在脚上,脱掉了湿漉漉的袜子。我们还奢侈了一把,加购了拍照套餐。当时觉得这个主意很棒,这样就不用带手机,也不用担心手机被水弄湿了。现在想想,我应该放弃这个套餐,只带个防水手机挂绳就行了。他们确实会在游览过程中和洞穴里拍一些个人照片。但是,最后所有照片都会发送到你的邮箱,而且数量很多,需要仔细查看。解放双手确实让我能更专注地欣赏洞穴里的一切。我只是觉得,如果能多拍一些我们俩在双人皮划艇上的个人照片就更好了。不管怎样,这仍然是一次难忘的探险,物有所值。
