点评:Starting with the positives, swimming with the whale sharks is amazing, it's a little bit rushed but that's the nature of swimming with whale sharks, it's a privilege to even get a chance to swim with the beautiful creatures. The guide we had for the majority of the day was a pleasure to be around, Oscar was kind, explained everything and made us laugh. Our boat captain and crew were also lovely! We only swam with them once but that was not for a lack of effort the team tried their absolute best to get us in the water more but you can't organise nature to do what you want so I have no issues there the swim we got was great.
The issues we had mainly centered around our guide who took us to and from our hotel. Jonathan was on time and waiting for us which was great, however, he didn't really talk to us other than a hello the whole journey. We met the team at 6 AM which was also fine we were told it was early. However, it was unnecessary as after the initial transfer we sat waiting for an hour for other groups to arrive despite having enough people to depart. During this hour Jonathan said nothing to us despite other groups getting briefed by their guide we sat there feeling forgotten. After we got back from the tour we also sat at the hotel for another 45 minutes sorting photos out, which could have been done in the bus on the way back. The final frustration was I went to the loo quickly Jonathan just walked to the taxi without waiting for me so when I got back to the hotel no one was there everyone had left and I had to search the car parks to try and find my guide... Which was really not a great end to the day.
翻译:先说优点吧,和鲸鲨一起游泳真是太棒了,虽然有点仓促,但这就是与鲸鲨一起游泳的乐趣所在,能有机会与这些美丽的生物一起畅游也是一种荣幸。我们当天大部分时间都和导游在一起,Oscar 人很好,讲解了所有事情,还逗我们笑。我们的船长和船员们也都很棒!我们只和他们一起游过一次泳,但这并不是因为他们不够努力,团队竭尽全力让我们更多地参与水中活动,但你无法掌控大自然,让它随心所欲,所以我对此没有意见,我们游得非常棒。
我们遇到的问题主要集中在接送我们往返酒店的导游身上。Jonathan 很准时到达并等着我们,这很棒,然而,除了一路上打招呼之外,他几乎没怎么和我们说话。我们早上 6 点就和团队见面了,这也很正常,因为我们被告知时间还早。然而,这是不必要的,因为在最初的换乘之后,尽管已经有足够的人可以出发,我们还是等了其他团体一个小时。在这一个小时里,乔纳森什么也没对我们说,尽管其他团体都听取了他们的导游的介绍,但我们坐在那里感觉被遗忘了。旅行回来后,我们在酒店又坐了 45 分钟整理照片,这些本来可以在回来的路上在公共汽车上完成的。最后令人沮丧的是,我很快就去了趟厕所,乔纳森没有等我就直接走向出租车,所以当我回到酒店时,那里一个人也没有,大家都离开了,我不得不在停车场里寻找我的导游......这真是一天美好的结束。
