点评:Unfortunately my expectations of the experience from the booking description and the cost were poorly met.
I expected it to be just me and a guide when I booked in for a solo ride given there was an extra cost per rider for going solo, the description of a ‘private’ experience, and you could only book for a solo or couple ride.
So it was incredibly unexpected and very very disappointing for the price that there ended up being 2 other people booked in with me! I’m sure it wasn’t the romantic ride the couple was going for either. Horrified to find out I had paid $190 to third wheel a couple that were there for $260.
I also ride regularly so the only reason I was willing to pay so much to do this was to have a private experience learning specifically about how to ride the different paso gaits since these horses are so rare in Australia. The ride around the small farm was pleasant but there was a lot of stopping and standing around and not much of an opportunity to really experience the paso horses, and again, it certainly wasn’t a private experience despite advertising that it would be.
It also would have been nice to get a video of riding such a unique mount.
Rodrigo was very nice though and I hope he is able to grow the business how he would like to include longer trail rides that are more scenic off-property with the beautiful Peruvian paso horses.
翻译:遗憾的是,预订描述和价格与我对这次体验的预期相差甚远。
我预订的是单人骑行,但考虑到单人骑行每位骑手都要额外付费,而且描述中说是“私人”体验,而且只能预订单人骑行或双人骑行,所以我以为只有我和一位导游。
所以,最终和我一起预订的竟然还有另外两个人,这真是出乎意料,也让我非常失望!我敢肯定,这肯定不是那对情侣想要的浪漫骑行。结果我震惊地发现,我竟然花了190美元,却让那对花了260美元的夫妇当了电瓶车。
我也经常骑马,所以我愿意花这么多钱来参加这次活动的唯一原因是想获得一次私人体验,专门学习如何骑不同的帕索马步法,因为这种马在澳大利亚非常罕见。在小农场里骑行很愉快,但经常有人停下来或站着,没有太多机会真正体验帕索马的魅力。而且,尽管广告宣传说是私人体验,但这绝对算不上什么。
如果能拍一段骑着这样一匹独特坐骑的视频就更好了。
不过罗德里戈人很好,我希望他能把生意做得更大,加入到更长、风景更优美的户外骑行路线中,与美丽的秘鲁帕索马一起驰骋。
