点评:We had an outstanding day in the Blue Mountains with Jamie, as our guide. Although we knew that there were tons of other people there, evidenced by the busses, he took us to places where we felt like the Jamison Valley and environs were only ours. He identified native plants, as that is one of his many interests-- that was so unexpectedly interesting.
Once in the Blue Mountains, it was so exciting to hear the cicadas. SO MANY!!!! SO LOUD!!!! (and if you look at them.. actually beautiful.. in a gross kind of way.)
Jamie gave us a personal tour at the Sydney Zoo that made us feel like we were hanging out with an old (knowledgeable) friend. We got there before the crowd, so we had the kangaroos and others all to ourselves.
Jamie got to know us in a way that the tour was truly personal. I had walking issues and he took us to out of the way places that I could navigate that had great views. (I truly expected to wait at the top of the canyon while he and my husband hiked.) But he made the trip accessible.
The absolute BEST gluten free schnitzel for lunch and fun gallery hopping, as well. He even introduced us to his favorite chocolate shop.
If we are back in Sydney, there is no question we will call on Local Eyes for guiding. It was a great experience.
翻译:在 Jamie 的带领下,我们在蓝山度过了美好的一天。虽然我们知道那里还有很多人,从巴士上就可以看出,但他还是带我们去了一些地方,让我们感觉 Jamison Valley 和周边地区只属于我们。他识别了本地植物,因为这是他众多兴趣之一——这出乎意料地有趣。
一到蓝山,听到蝉鸣声就很兴奋。太多了!太响了!(如果你看它们……真的很美……有点恶心。)
Jamie 带我们参观了悉尼动物园,让我们感觉像是和一位老朋友(知识渊博)一起玩。我们在人群聚集之前就到了那里,所以袋鼠和其他动物都属于我们。
Jamie 以一种真正私人的方式了解了我们。我走路有点问题,他带我们去了我可以走路但风景优美的地方。 (我真的以为我会在峡谷顶部等他和我丈夫徒步旅行。)但他让这次旅行变得轻松。
午餐吃无麸质炸肉排,还有有趣的画廊之旅,绝对是最好的。他甚至向我们介绍了他最喜欢的巧克力店。
如果我们回到悉尼,毫无疑问我们会请 Local Eyes 来指导。这是一次很棒的经历。
