点评:I booked this excursion with Holland America and would have loved it except for the fact that the cruise line description didn't explain it was a hike -- they called it a 2 mile walk. I walked for the first 15 min of the walk and it was about a 40 degree 'hike" not a pleasant 'walk'. I stopped after about 15 min. and I ended up coming back down the path to the dock and waited for the others to return. Just too strenuous.
I love bird watching and photographing birds which is why I booked the excursion. The path we followed was mostly pea gravel which made it difficult when we came back down that you feet didn't slip. There were 4 of us waiting at the dock because we couldn't do the hike. The volunteer was great and she walked me back down to the dock as she was afraid I would fall.
I did see and hear some birds while waiting at the dock. The tui, New Zealand Bellbird, welcome swallows, silvereye, and European Goldfinch.. Good birding day but not good for my knee which I hurt coming down and was laid up for 2 days.
No I would not book this again.
翻译:我通过荷美邮轮公司预订了这次短途旅行,本来很喜欢它,但邮轮公司的描述中没有说明这是一次徒步旅行——他们称之为 2 英里的步行。我走了 15 分钟,大约是 40 度的“徒步”,不是一次愉快的“徒步”。大约 15 分钟后我停了下来。最后我沿着小路回到码头,等待其他人回来。太费力了。
我喜欢观鸟和拍鸟,这就是我预订这次短途旅行的原因。我们走的路大部分都是豌豆砾石,这让我们下山时很难不滑倒。我们四个人在码头等着,因为我们不能徒步旅行。志愿者很棒,她把我送回码头,因为她担心我会摔倒。
我在码头等待的时候确实看到和听到了一些鸟。tui、新西兰钟鸟、迎燕、银眼和欧洲金翅雀。观鸟的好日子,但对我的膝盖不好,我下来的时候伤了,躺了两天。
不,我不会再预订这个了。
