点评:Worst experience ever. Arranged to charter a boat with a captain 2 weeks in advance. Owner Jill McKenna recommended Baird as the best captain for us. (Later learned that he is her son.) Had a few calls with Baird in the days before the charter trying to figure out the best pick-up point. He finally texted me the night before to say we should meet him at Moon Dunes Beach. I attempted calling and texting him several times the morning of the charter to clarify the pickup point. He didn't answer, but I assumed maybe he was on the water and didn't hear his phone. We arrived at the spot 10 minutes in advance and waited & waited but he never showed and still wasn't answering his phone. Texted with Jill who said she would call him & call me right back. When she hadn't called 15 minutes later, I texted her again. She said she couldn't get in touch with Baird or his girlfriend. Said "this is just awful" and said she would try to see if there was another captain & boat nearby. When she hadn't called back in 10 minutes, I texted that we had to leave and expected a full refund, to which she replied "Absolutely. I'm so sorry." Not only did she never refund us, she ghosted me when I attempted to reach her after that to inquire about it. Disputed it through American Express, and she told them WE were the ones who no-showed. Still going through the dispute process to get our $1500 back (it's been over 2 months now). Absolutely NEVER use this company! After this happened, I checked reviews online -- and most all of them are similar to mine. I obviously should have checked them before booking with Jill McKenna, Baird McKenna and Tahoe Family Adventures.
翻译:这是我经历过的最糟糕的体验。两周前我预订了一艘带船长的船。船主吉尔·麦肯纳推荐贝尔德,说他是最适合我们的船长。(后来才知道他是她的儿子。)在出海前的几天里,我和贝尔德通了几次电话,想确定最佳的接船地点。他终于在前一天晚上发短信告诉我,我们应该在月亮沙丘海滩碰面。出海当天早上,我多次尝试打电话和发短信给他,确认接船地点。他没有接,但我以为他可能在海上,没听到电话。我们提前十分钟到达了约定的地点,等了又等,但他始终没有出现,电话也一直无人接听。我给吉尔发了短信,她说她会打电话给贝尔德,然后马上给我回电话。十五分钟后她还没打来,我又给她发了一条短信。她说她联系不上贝尔德或他的女朋友。她说“这太糟糕了”,并表示会看看附近是否有其他船长和船只。10分钟后她没有回电,我发短信说我们必须离开,并要求全额退款,她回复说“当然可以,非常抱歉”。她不仅没有退款,之后我试图联系她询问此事时,她也杳无音信。我通过美国运通提出争议,她却告诉他们是我们没出现。现在还在走争议流程,希望能拿回我们1500美元(已经过去两个多月了)。千万不要选择这家公司!事后,我在网上查看了评论——发现几乎所有评论都和我遇到的情况类似。显然,我应该在通过Jill McKenna、Baird McKenna和Tahoe Family Adventures预订之前就查看评论。
