点评:What a relaxing 2-day riverboat cruise. We loved just listening and watching the beautiful scenery pass by and being able to see sights we couldn't see any other way than being on the Mississippi. Spectacular landscapes on both the Illinois and Iowa river banks.
All the while, captain Kevin continuously announced information on all the towns along the Mississippi river. He told us about the different barges, tugboats and lock and dam system that we passed on our trip.
The staff was excellent, what an amazing group of hard workers. Everyone was friendly and cheerful making all feel welcome. We especially enjoyed the humor & conversations we had with our waiter and the bartender.
The trivia contest was fun and a great way to learn interesting facts about the river. By just listening carefully to the captain’s informative narration about the history and mystery of the river throughout the trip you managed to learn the answers as we went up and down the river.
The historic Dubuque Trolley tour after we arrived in Dubuque was very informative and well worth it.
How blessed we are to have a tourist attraction like this in Eastern Iowa.
翻译:多么轻松惬意的两天游船之旅!我们喜欢一边聆听,一边欣赏沿途美丽的风景,还能看到只有在密西西比河上才能看到的景色。伊利诺伊河和爱荷华河两岸的景色都美不胜收。
船长凯文一路都在播报密西西比河沿岸城镇的信息。他向我们介绍了沿途经过的各种驳船、拖船以及船闸和水坝系统。
船员们都非常棒,他们真是一群勤劳能干的人。每个人都热情友好,让人感到宾至如归。我们尤其喜欢和侍者以及调酒师的幽默交谈。
趣味问答环节既有趣又能让我们了解关于这条河的奇闻轶事。只要认真聆听船长在旅途中对河流历史和神秘之处的讲解,就能在顺流而下的过程中找到答案。
抵达迪比克后,我们参加了历史悠久的迪比克有轨电车之旅,收获颇丰,非常值得。我们真幸运,爱荷华州东部能有这样一个旅游景点。
