点评:Booked the seven villages tour as it was advertised as being 2.5 hours with just 30 mins of pick ups.
We got on at the first stop and had no option but to all cram into the first carriage 4 to a seat. As most of the tour was middle aged people this meant we were really crammed in.
Seats are incredibly uncomfortable after half an hour especially as there is no wriggle room at all. Being in the first carriage was really noisy as well as we were directly behind the engine.
Pick up took 65 mins driving along the main coast road. So dusty, noisy and polluted.
We’d expected the villages to be pretty with good views and photo stops. How wrong were we.
The first stop was basically a sales opportunity for a small cafe/shop. With two full trains there must have been over 100 people trying to cram into a small space. All the focus was on selling their goods so no opportunity for a drink. With only one toilet the longest queue was for the loo!
Second stop had an ok church and cafe but nothing that you’d choose to stop at. No views or anything pretty.
Third stop has a taverna but was pretty bleak and people resorted to watching workmen re cable a telecoms box!’
The fact that everyone bar those queuing for toilets were always back in the train 5 mins early just sums it up.
Highlight was the maximum security prison and the cement works where they filled up the cement mixers.
To add insult to injury the tour took 3 hours 45 so there went the afternoon plans.
Wouldn’t recommend at all.
翻译:我们预订了七村之旅,因为广告上说全程2.5小时,接送时间仅需30分钟。
我们在第一站上车,别无选择,只能挤进第一节车厢,四个人挤一个座位。由于大部分游客都是中年人,所以我们真的非常拥挤。
半小时后,座位就变得极其不舒服,尤其是一点活动空间都没有。而且,由于我们正对着火车头,第一节车厢噪音很大。
接送花了65分钟,沿着沿海主干道行驶。尘土飞扬,噪音很大,污染也很严重。
我们原本以为这些村庄会很漂亮,风景优美,还有拍照点。结果大错特错。
第一站基本上就是一个小咖啡馆/商店的推销点。两列满载的火车,肯定有超过100人挤在一个狭小的空间里。所有人的注意力都集中在推销商品上,根本没时间喝点东西。只有一个厕所,排队最长的竟然是上厕所!
第二站有个还行的教堂和咖啡馆,但没什么值得停留的地方。景色一般,没什么好看的。
第三站有个小酒馆,但很冷清,人们竟然在那儿看工人重新铺设电信箱的电缆!
除了排队上厕所的人,其他人都提前5分钟回到车上,这足以说明一切。
亮点是最高安全级别的监狱和水泥厂,他们在那里给水泥搅拌机加料。
更糟糕的是,整个行程花了3小时45分钟,下午的计划全泡汤了。
完全不推荐。
