点评:The castle itself was amazing. The historical significance was very important and it is a beautiful place! However our guide, Julianna, was quite rude. There were around 15 people in the group of which 10 spoke English. As soon as Julianna started speaking it became clear that the tour was only going to be in German. She spoke so fast there was no opportunity for anyone to translate. Another guest asked her if she could speak English since there was so may of us, and she said “No, they should have booked the English tour.” However, they, like us, didn’t even realize that was an option. The guest then asked if she could at least slow down so we could translate and she said “No.”
The guide did speak English very well so it wasn’t a matter of she could not, she clearly just felt to stick to the rules. However, then she neglected to tell us about certain things on the tour that I felt were significant (like the tools in the corner of the room which were original). If someone asked, she’d tell about it, but she seemed bothered by questions.
While I understand that this was a German tour, when paying people ask questions, the guide should offer answers without making them feel bad. And if ALL guests say they are fine if the guide speaks English, kindly pointing out there was an EN tour but still doing it, is just good customer service.
Julianna did not seem to enjoy the job, she was not enthusiastic about it, and should not continue to do the job if she hates it. VERY disappointing.
翻译:城堡本身就令人惊叹。它的历史意义非凡,而且景色优美!然而,我们的导游朱莉安娜却相当粗鲁。我们团里大约有15个人,其中10个人会说英语。朱莉安娜一开口,我们就明白这次旅行只提供德语服务。她语速飞快,根本没机会翻译。另一位游客问她,既然我们人这么多,她会不会说英语?她说:“不会,他们应该预订英语团。” 然而,他们和我们一样,甚至都没意识到还有英语可选。后来,这位游客问她,能不能至少放慢语速,好让我们翻译一下,朱莉安娜回答说:“不行。” 导游的英语说得很好,所以问题不在于她不会说,她显然只是想遵守规则。然而,她却忽略了这次旅行中我认为很重要的一些细节(比如房间角落里那些工具是原装的)。如果有人问起,她会讲,但她似乎对这些问题感到困扰。
虽然我理解这是德国之旅,但当有人付费提问时,导游应该给予解答,而不是让他们感到不舒服。如果所有客人都表示导游会说英语,那么礼貌地指出这是一次英语之旅,但仍然坚持说英语,这才是良好的客户服务。
朱莉安娜似乎并不喜欢这份工作,她对它没有热情,如果她讨厌这份工作,就不应该继续做下去。非常令人失望。
