点评:My husband, our 18-year-old daughter and I went on a private sunset tour which we booked fairly last minute- we were grateful to be able to do this. We did not have any particular expectations going in, but we were blown away by our experience. I am so glad that we did not try to see Monument Valley on our own, and had a knowledgeable guide with deep roots in the Navajo community. Gary was able to address our particular interests, and also go well beyond them. We were all enriched by this experience, and left feeling peaceful and very satisfied. I appreciate this family-run business very much, and look forward to another visit in the future to spend more time in this special place and maybe experience one of the other tours I’m reading about here. If you’re considering whether or not to book a guided tour, definitely do it- you can get to places that you can’t on your own. You also need someone who knows what they’re doing in those roads. It really makes a difference to have someone connected to the place to tell you about things as you are seeing them as opposed to driving the loop yourself. And finally, once you decide to do a tour and not go it on your own (this is a decision process my family went through)- I cannot recommend Navajo Spirit Tours highly enough. This is a family business with wonderful people who take great pride in their work.
翻译:我和丈夫以及18岁的女儿参加了一次私人日落之旅,预订的时间很晚——我们非常感激能有这次机会。我们一开始并没有抱有什么特别的期望,但最终的体验却让我们大吃一惊。我很庆幸我们没有独自游览纪念碑谷,而是选择了一位知识渊博、扎根于纳瓦霍族的导游。加里不仅满足了我们的兴趣,还让我们的理解远超预期。这次体验让我们受益匪浅,离开时感到内心平静,非常满足。我非常欣赏这家家族企业,期待未来再次造访,在这个特别的地方多待一段时间,或许还能体验一下我在这里读到的其他行程。如果你正在考虑是否预订导览游,一定要预订——你可以到达一些你独自一人无法到达的地方。你还需要一个熟悉这些道路的人。有一位与当地有密切关系的人,在你所见的地方为你讲解,而不是自己开车兜风,真的会有很大的不同。最后,一旦你决定参加旅行团而不是独自旅行(我家就经历过这样的决定),我强烈推荐纳瓦霍精神之旅 (Navajo Spirit Tours)。这是一家家族企业,拥有优秀的员工,他们对自己的工作感到非常自豪。
