Ireland West Chauffeurs的点评
点评:I wouldn't call Patrick a Chauffeur, I'd say he's a very knowledgeable, flexible and pleasant tour guide and local expert on the West of Ireland - who also happens to do all the driving. Our experience with him was a solid 10 out of 10! Here's why:
1. We were made to feel like friends or family from the very start.
2. He anticipated all the needs of our party of 6 (2 parents, 4 kids ranging from 15-23 yo). For instance, when our first day started 2.5 hours late because of a flight delay, we were running up against late dinner times and fewer open restaurants/pubs for our hungry crew. He redirected us to a better, closer location in Loughrea, and even called ahead to get a copy of the menu - which allowed us to order dinner before the kitchen closed!!! What a relief (and delicious meal our tired hungry family were able to enjoy)!
3. He understood the needs of teenagers who prefer to sleep in later than their parents. He deftly made me aware of this with clear choices. For instance: "Well, if we leave at noon, you'll have time for A, then we can drive to B, finishing at C. However, if you need more time and want to leave at 1, we can still see A and C but we'll have to pass on B - it's your choice". This made everything easier for us.
4. He ability to sprinkle Irish history throughout the drive, leading up to our destination or simply to field questions on the fly made for a most enjoyable.
For parties of 2-6 look no further than Patrick Larkin. He's your man.
翻译:我不会称 Patrick 为司机,我会说他是一位知识渊博、灵活且令人愉快的导游,也是爱尔兰西部的当地专家——他也负责开车。我们与他的合作体验十分愉快!原因如下:
1. 从一开始,我们就感觉像朋友或家人一样。
2. 他预见到了我们 6 人团体(2 名父母,4 名年龄在 15-23 岁之间的孩子)的所有需求。例如,由于航班延误,我们的第一天比原定时间晚了 2.5 小时,我们遇到了晚餐时间较晚、开放的餐厅/酒吧较少的问题,我们饥饿的团队只能选择较少的餐厅/酒吧。他将我们带到了 Loughrea 一个更好、更近的地点,甚至提前打电话要了一份菜单——这让我们可以在厨房关门前点晚餐!!!这让我们松了一口气(我们疲惫饥饿的家人可以享受美味的晚餐)!
3. 他了解那些比父母更喜欢睡懒觉的青少年的需求。他巧妙地让我意识到这一点,并给出了明确的选择。例如:“好吧,如果我们中午出发,您有时间去 A,然后我们可以开车去 B,最后到达 C。但是,如果您需要更多时间并想在 1 点出发,我们仍然可以参观 A 和 C,但必须放弃 B - 这是您的选择”。这让我们一切都变得容易了。
4. 他能够在整个行程中穿插爱尔兰历史,直到我们到达目的地,或者只是即兴回答问题,这让我们的旅程变得非常愉快。
对于 2-6 人的团体,Patrick Larkin 是最佳人选。他是您的不二之选。
