Scam by Alona Resort to watch Whale Shark Tour
Whale Shark Alona & Oslob的点评
点评：We were scammed by Aloha Resort which was right next door to the Whale Shark Tour in Oslob. Let me begin.
We took a bus at around 4am (292 pesos/person) from Cebu City to Oslob Whale Watching/Swimming Tour. We arrived about 7:30am. The bus conductor dropped us off at Aloha Hotel. He told us that this was the entrance to the tour (a lie). There, we met a guy named Narida (Aloha Resort Employee) who guided us. He could have easily told us that the Whale Shark place was right next door. He works for Aloha Resort which we were totally unaware because it was our first time. He charged us 700 pesos a piece (which he stated that the extra 200 pesos would be for an Environmental Fee). Then he walked us right next door to the tour. I knew something was strange because he asked us to go straight to the listening ceremony prior to the tour which was a red flag. Then as we approached the ticket counter at the Whale Shark place, a huge sign was in front of the window that stated,”Pay right here for tickets”. Once we boarded the boat, my friend asked the other tourist, “How much did you pay?”. They all stated,”It’s 500 pesos.” There was no Environmental Fee because it’s included in the price of 500. If you want to swim, you can rent their equipment and pay more. After the 30 minute adventure, We went next door to Alona Resort and asked Narida to return the extra 600 pesos because it was 3 of us. Narida insisted that the Whale Shark representative was lying. Once he refused to return the money, we talked to the Tourism Authorities which were located right at the counter near the Whale Shark place. The Tourism Authorities notified the police which was onsite also. They went next door and asked Narida (Alona Representative) to explain what happened. We all (me, my friends, police, tourism authorities, and Narida) entered a room at the Whale Shark place. Narida changed his story and told the police that the extra 200/person was the resort fee. However, he only wrote a receipt for 1400 pesos (100 pesos Senior citizen discount for one of the individuals which totaled 1400 pesos. We paid him 2000 pesos total. After the hassle, the police asked him to return the 600 pesos back to us. He did. (Narida is a guy)
I know it’s only 600 pesos but it’s the moral aspect. Stop cheating the foreigners!

翻译：我们被奥斯洛布鲸鲨之旅隔壁的阿罗哈度假村骗了。让我开始吧。
我们在凌晨4点左右（292比索/人）从宿务市乘坐巴士前往Oslob Whale Watching / Swimming Tour。我们大约早上 7:30 到达。巴士售票员让我们在 Aloha Hotel 下车。他告诉我们这是游览的入口（谎言）。在那里，我们遇到了一位名叫 Narida（阿罗哈度假村员工）的人，他指导了我们。他本可以很容易地告诉我们鲸鲨店就在隔壁。他在 Aloha Resort 工作，我们完全不知道，因为这是我们第一次来。他向我们收取每件 700 比索的费用（他说额外的 200 比索将用于支付环境费）。然后他就把我们带到隔壁去参观。我知道有些事情很奇怪，因为他要求我们在巡回演出之前直接去参加听证会，这是一个危险信号。然后当我们快到鲸鲨场的售票柜台时，窗前有一个巨大的牌子，上面写着“在这里买票”。我们一上船，我的朋友就问另一位游客，“你付了多少钱？”。他们都说，“是500比索。”没有环境费，因为500的价格里已经包含了。如果想游泳的话，可以租他们的装备，而且要多付钱。 30 分钟的冒险之后，我们去了隔壁的 Alona 度假村，要求 Narida 退还额外的 600 比索，因为这是我们 3 个人。成田坚称鲸鲨代表在撒谎。一旦他拒绝退还钱，我们就与位于鲸鲨附近柜台的旅游局进行了交谈。旅游局通知了也在现场的警察。他们走到隔壁要求 Narida（Alona 代表）解释发生的事情。我们所有人（我、我的朋友、警察、旅游当局和 Narida）都进入了鲸鲨场所的一个房间。 Narida改口告诉警察，多出来的200/人是resort fee。然而，他只写了一张1400比索的收据（其中一个人100比索的老年人折扣共计1400比索。我们总共付了他2000比索。纠结之后，警察让他把600比索退还给我们。他做到了。（成田是个男人）
我知道只有 600 比索，但这是道德方面的问题。别再骗外国人了！
