整体不错,希望航行时间更长距离更远

自助餐很好吃,体验不错,只是感觉整个时间有点短,如果能航行更远那就太好了。唯一的遗憾就是当时天气不好,大风大雨。

冬天出游,自助餐是个好的选择

一整天的行程含自助午餐,如果是在冬天,那么自助餐是个好的选择。早上6:40在皇后镇集散点集合,7点发车,我们是一位女司机,全程主动聊天,每个拍摄景点都会停车,整个行车路线停车点有5-6个。我们在1:15pm登船,上船后就排队领餐盘,然后自己开始选餐,食材有肉类,炸鸡翅,蔬菜色拉,土豆,水果,面包,米饭,炒面,每人一份冰淇淋。游船看到了海豚,看到了瀑布,还有彩虹,甲板上风很大,靠近瀑布时小心会被淋湿。

很好。司机一路讲解,无中文服务。船上吃得很棒,据说是皇后镇排名第二好的公司。

不错的体验

风景很美 工作人员服务态度都不错 可惜我们去的时候下雨了没看到海豹 峡湾云雾缭绕 很有仙境的感觉 到大瀑布下大家都很high 总之非常值得一去
