点评:We had booked a Southern Adventure Buggy Tour Coral Coast Tours for three people in a 4 person buggy and we turned up on time on 4 October for our tour. The middle aged couple who seem to run/own the business, told us immediately in no uncertain terms that three adults cannnot travel in a 4 person buggy as it will overload/unbalance it.
We explained that the people concerned were aged 75 (the driver) 17 and 16. No! They insisted it states on the website that only two adults and two chidren can travel in a 4 person buggy so one of our party will have to travel with the guide in his buggy.
But we pushed back and said that we had booked a 4 person buggy and we all wanted to travel together. When we pointed out that were talking about three people who weighed 74kg, 70kg and 50kg they eventually relented and we then enjoyed a very pleasant tour with John from Cornwall as our Guide.
But a check later of the Coral Coast Tours website showed no mention of only two adults and two children in a 4 person buggy, or any other 4 person buggy limitation, except a maximum capacity of 350kg. The all up weight of our party was less that 200kg!
So all quite weird and totally unnecessary.
But the worst aspect of this whole experince was the attitude of the two persons dealing with us. They were patronising and aggressive. So a great tour but a very unpleasant experience.
You have been warned.

翻译:我们提前预订了南方探险卡丁车之旅——珊瑚海岸旅游公司提供的服务,三人乘坐一辆可载4人的卡丁车。10月4日,我们准时前往参加行程。那对似乎是经营者/老板的中年夫妇立刻斩钉截铁地告诉我们:三个成年人不能同乘一辆四人卡丁车,否则会超载并导致车辆失衡。
我们解释说,同行人员年龄分别为75岁(驾驶员)、17岁和16岁。但他们还是拒绝接受。他们坚称网站上明确写着:一辆四人乘坐的观光车只能搭载两名成人和两名儿童,因此我们一行人当中必须有人和导游一起坐在他的车里。
但我们据理力争,表示我们预订的就是一辆四人车,而且我们希望所有人能待在一起。当我们指出我们三个人的体重分别仅为74公斤、70公斤和50公斤时,他们最终同意了。随后,我们在来自康沃尔的导游约翰的带领下,享受了一次非常愉快的游览。不过后来我查看了Coral Coast Tours的网站,上面并没有提及四人马车只能搭载两名成人和两名儿童这一规定,也没有任何关于四人马车的其他限制条件,仅说明了其最大载重为350公斤而已。而我们一行人的总重量还不到200公斤呢!
所以说,这一切都相当奇怪且完全没有必要。
不过整个经历中最糟糕的,就是接待我们的那两个人的态度。他们既居高临下又颇具攻击性。虽然这次旅行本身挺不错的,但体验实在令人不快。已经警告过你了。
