点评:We toured two glowworm caves in one day and Spellbound was clearly far superior in the cave itself and the overall experience. The other tour was extremely commercial, while Spellbound was personal and far more informative. Our guide Doug was clearly enthralled by the glowworms and pristine cave and shared his enthusiasm. While the other tour prohibited pictures, Spellbound allowed them and Doug was extremely helpful regarding how to get great pictures with a phone camera. In addition he took a very professional picture of each guest without charge. By limiting the number of people on each tour and the number of tours daily, the cave is clean and healthy. Doug pointed out eggs and pupae and described the life cycle of the "worms" in extraordinary detail. A highlight of our trip to New Zealand.
翻译:我们在一天内参观了两个萤火虫洞,显然“Spellbound”之旅在洞穴本身以及整体体验上都要出色得多。另一个旅游团显得极其商业化,而“Spellbound”则更注重个性化服务且提供的信息也更为丰富。我们的导游道格显然对萤火虫和这片原始的洞穴环境充满热情,并将这份热情传递给了我们。另一个旅游团禁止拍照,而“Spellbound”则允许拍照;道格还热心地教我们如何用手机拍出好照片。此外,他还免费为每位游客拍摄了非常专业的照片。通过限制每场游览的人数以及每日游览的次数,洞穴得以保持清洁且环境良好。道格指出了那些虫卵和蛹,并极为详细地描述了这些“虫子”的生命周期。这真是我们新西兰之行的亮点所在。
