点评:We booked and took the Dominguez Escalante tour. We were very excited to take a combination paddleboard/kayaking tour that included a hike and waterfall. 8 hours seems long, but no where did it mention that more than 2 of the hours would be spent in a van traveling to and from the water. Nor were we told the trip would not include the waterfall advertised on their website and why we chose this specific tour. Our guide, Deja, indicated she was very concerned about safety and gave a long talk about safety procedures, but then when we approached rapids, just told us to follow her like ducks and went her merry way. When one of our paddleboarders got stuck, she was so far gone, she had no idea. When later one was injured again, no where near to assist. The first aid kit was dried up and unusable. The paddleboard and kayak equipment was sound, but no carabiners were provided to hold items to boards. We lost one water bottle to the rapids. On the positive side, the lunch was delicious and had a good mixture for both our vegetarian and our meat lover. We were also required to carry the boards, kayak, paddles and other supplies up a steep bank, over a railroad track and to the truck while Deja stayed at the river to rinse the equipment in the river. We would recommend staying away from this trip. Shame on them for not divulging that the trip itinerary was modified and shame on us for not confirming they were sticking to the trip on their website.
翻译:我们预订了多明格斯埃斯卡兰特 (Dominguez Escalante) 的行程。我们非常期待参加包含徒步和瀑布游览的桨板/皮划艇组合行程。8 个小时似乎很长,但行程中没有提到超过 2 个小时需要乘坐面包车往返瀑布。我们也没有被告知行程中不包含网站上宣传的瀑布,以及我们为什么选择这个行程。我们的导游 Deja 表示她非常关心安全问题,并详细讲解了安全规程,但当我们接近急流时,她只是告诉我们像鸭子一样跟着她,然后就高高兴兴地走了。我们的一个桨板手被困住了,她已经完全失去了意识。后来,又有一个桨板手受伤了,附近却无人救援。急救箱已经干涸,无法使用。桨板和皮划艇的装备完好无损,但没有提供将物品固定在桨板上的登山扣。我们的一个水瓶在急流中丢失了。积极的一面是,午餐很美味,对于我们素食者和肉食爱好者来说,都是不错的选择。我们还得把冲浪板、皮划艇、桨和其他用品搬上陡峭的河岸,翻过铁轨,再搬到卡车上,而Deja则留在河边冲洗设备。我们建议不要参加这次旅行。他们竟然没有透露行程安排已被修改,真是太可耻了;我们竟然没有在网站上确认行程安排是否保持不变,真是太可耻了。
