点评:We arranged for a week-long safari for our family (2 adults and one child) and it was amazing! Our driver Julius was an excellent guide, an impeccable driver, and knowledgeable about Kenya’s history, animals, and geography. We saw and experienced so much in one week — more than I ever thought possible. Our accommodations were superb, meals delicious, and the staff incredibly friendly and helpful. The scenery and wildlife were awe-inspiring and have left an indelible mark in our memories; thank you. We even names our 5’ souvenir giraffe after our guide, “Julius Jr.”.
The walking safari was beyond words. Being centimetres from the wildlife, seeing a baby giraffe, and inhabiting the space of these wild animals was something that I won’t soon forget.
Hippos, elephants, cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, lions, hyena, and so many more incredible animals — seeing them in their natural habitat was surreal and simultaneously rewarding. Infinitely better than a zoo!
If there was one thing that we found off-putting, it was the tremendous pressure to buy trinkets, carvings, and beadwork at park entrances and specifically during our visit to a Masai village. That unrelenting pressure, after being told that there would be no pressure, was uncomfortable and distracting from what we had hoped would be an interesting interaction and exchange for which we had already paid. That is gladly omit from the tour, though seeing the village was interesting.
The time we spent on safari was an educational experience for us and our daughter unlike anything we could have achieved at home. Thanks to Faith for making this happen and to Julius, our trusted guide; it was great getting to know you. We talk of you often and think of you and our trip each time we see Julius Jr. in our living room.
翻译:我们为我们的家人(2 位成人和 1 名儿童)安排了为期一周的狩猎之旅,真是太棒了!我们的司机朱利叶斯是一位出色的导游,一位无可挑剔的司机,并且了解肯尼亚的历史、动物和地理。我们在一周内看到并经历了很多事情——比我想象的还要多。我们的住宿条件非常好,饭菜很美味,工作人员非常友好和乐于助人。风景和野生动物令人惊叹,在我们的记忆中留下了不可磨灭的印记;谢谢。我们甚至以我们的导游“Julius Jr.”的名字为我们的 5 英尺长的纪念长颈鹿命名。
徒步旅行是无法用言语来形容的。距离野生动物几厘米,看到小长颈鹿,住在这些野生动物的空间里,这些都是我不会很快忘记的事情。
河马、大象、猎豹、斑马、长颈鹿、狮子、鬣狗和许多其他令人难以置信的动物——在自然栖息地看到它们是超现实的,同时也是有益的。比动物园好多了!
如果有一件事让我们感到不快,那就是在公园入口处,特别是在我们参观马赛村庄期间购买小饰品、雕刻品和珠饰的巨大压力。在被告知不会有压力之后,这种无情的压力让我们感到不舒服,并且分散了我们原本希望的有趣的互动和交流的注意力,而我们已经为此付出了代价。尽管参观这个村庄很有趣,但很高兴在旅行中省略这一点。
我们在狩猎中度过的时间对我们和我们的女儿来说是一次教育经历,这与我们在家里所能取得的成就不同。感谢信仰让这一切发生,感谢朱利叶斯,我们值得信赖的向导;很高兴认识你。每次我们在客厅看到小朱利叶斯时,我们都会经常谈论您并想起您和我们的旅行。
