点评:The GAP and C & O Trail is fantastic, wonderful deciduous forests and rivers all along the way and marvelous birdlife and other wildlife. The trail grade was very good for the most part. We also happened to have fantastic weather, not too hot not too cold.
The lodgings could have been better. For example, in one place (forget where) there was construction going on and it was very noisy when I arrived in my room. I complained to the desk and they were not accommodating at all. In another town, our booking was at a former morgue, which had a certain interesting vibe, but the rooms were weird. This would all have been less irksome if I hadn't paid such a steep single supplement -- $900. I don't think that my rooms as a single were that much higher than for a double occupancy. I feel that that many companies, including this one, pad their costs by charging such high single supplements.
The guides were great and I had a wonderful time.
翻译:GAP 和切萨皮克和俄亥俄步道 (C&O Trail) 非常棒,沿途遍布着美丽的落叶林和河流,还有各种珍稀的鸟类和其他野生动物。步道大部分路段的坡度都很好。我们遇到的天气也恰好,不冷不热。
住宿条件本来可以更好一些。比如,在一个地方(忘了是哪里了)正在施工,我到房间的时候非常吵。我向前台投诉,但他们一点也不热情。在另一个城镇,我们预订的房间以前是停尸房,氛围很有意思,但房间很奇怪。如果我没有支付那么高的单人房附加费——900 美元——这一切或许就不会那么令人恼火了。我觉得我的单人房价格并没有比双人房贵那么多。我觉得很多公司,包括这家,都在通过收取如此高的单人房附加费来虚报成本。
导游很棒,我玩得很开心。
