Very "touristy" experience, not what we were looking for
Cancun Adventures - Luxury Sailing & Snorkeling的点评
点评:Our main issue with this trip was just how "tourist" it was. We booked a "luxury catamaran" cruise via a third party agency, expecting this to be on a private catamaran with under 25 people on board. However that was a fault of the third party and not Cancun Adventures. However we were still disappointed with the trip.
We were expecting that we would have a decent amount of time to snorkel however, what we were not expecting was to have to hold onto a rope and be pushed along like sheep behind the leader. We are all certified divers and had I known that the "snorkel" was actually going to be more akin to a 20 minute route march in the water, I would never have booked this trip. I was expecting there to be two stops but the second stop merely consisted of a 20 minute splash around in 7ft deep water off the Playa del Norte for which I was obliged to wear a buoyancy aid which made it impossible to swim. At all times all they really seemed interested was getting people back to the boat so they could make their schedule on time.
We were then dropped off with 3 hours to kill on Isla Mujeres which was the most ghastly tourist trap with people approaching you every two minutes trying to flog you total tat.
The "luxury lunch" made with "local ingredients" was a very large sandwich.
The crew were really friendly and if you don't have much experience of snorkelling and diving in the caribbean and aren't too bothered about swimming in the sea then the experience of the catamaran itself was lovely. My husband had a great time kicking back with a G&T wiht the wind in his hair. However, as a keen scuba diver, I prefer my boat trips rather less regimented and quieter.
翻译:我们对这次旅行的主要不满在于它太“旅游化”了。我们通过第三方旅行社预订了一艘“豪华双体船”游轮,原本以为船上会是一艘私人双体船,最多载25人。然而,这完全是第三方的错,而不是坎昆探险公司(Cancun Adventures)的错。然而,我们仍然对这次旅行感到失望。
我们原本以为会有充足的时间浮潜,却没想到竟然要抓着绳子,像绵羊一样被领队推着走。我们都是持证潜水员,如果我知道“浮潜”实际上更像是在水中进行20分钟的循序渐进,我绝对不会预订这次旅行。我原本以为会有两站,但第二站只是在北海滩(Playa del Norte)7英尺深的水域里嬉戏了20分钟,期间我不得不穿着救生衣,这导致我无法游泳。他们似乎始终只关心如何让乘客回到船上,以便他们能准时完成行程。
然后,我们被送到了女人岛,那里还有三个小时的空闲时间,简直就是最可怕的旅游陷阱,每隔两分钟就有人过来兜售各种奇葩商品。
用“当地食材”烹制的“豪华午餐”是一个超大的三明治。
船员们非常友好,如果你没有太多在加勒比海浮潜和潜水的经验,也不太喜欢在海里游泳,那么乘坐双体船本身的体验也非常棒。我丈夫喝着金汤力,头发随风飘扬,玩得很开心。不过,作为一名潜水爱好者,我更喜欢轻松安静的乘船旅行。
