点评:The Abel Tasman Coast walk is absolutely stunning, and Abel Tasman Guides made the experience easy. They organised accomodation, water taxis, breakfast and lunch and snacks each day - the only thing we needed to do was walk!
Merisha, our guide, was fantastic. Greeting us with a warm smile each morning, talking us through the track we would be taking, telling us which sights were worth seeing, and reassuring us that yes, we would make the water taxi at the end of each day! Our first day of walking, it rained pretty persistently (the track is still absolutely worth it in those conditions). and Merisha sent through a message to let us know she'd organised an earlier water taxi for us so we didn't need to wait in the wet. She also organised a booking for us at Hooked cafe when she discovered its opening night for the season was our second night of the walk.
Our accomodation was the B&B each night, and it was perfect - the bed was comfy, the heater was small but mighty, and tucked away as it was, at night there seemed to be nothing at all between the sliding door and the stars. Breakfast was simple, but just what we needed to get going.
The lunches were great - perfect hiking fuel, delicious fresh wraps, a wedge of amazing slice, and the freshest tastiest apple I've had in ages.
This was our first multi-day hike in NZ, and based on the experience created by Abel Tasman Guides, it most certainly wont be our last.
翻译:阿贝尔塔斯曼海岸步道美得令人惊叹,而Abel Tasman Guides让整个体验变得轻松愉快。他们负责安排住宿、水上出租车,还每天为我们准备早餐、午餐和零食——我们唯一需要做的就只是步行而已!
我们的向导梅里莎棒极了。每天早晨,她都面带温暖的笑容迎接我们,为我们介绍当天的徒步路线,告诉我们哪些景点值得一看,还让我们放心:没错,我们每天都能及时赶上最后一班水上出租车!我们在徒步的第一天,雨下得很大(即便在这样的天气下,这条路线依然绝对值得走)。梅里莎发来消息,说她为我们安排了更早一班的水上出租车,这样我们就不用在雨中等待了。当她得知Hooked咖啡馆本季的开业日正好是我们徒步的第二天时,还亲自为我们预订了位置。
每晚我们都下榻在民宿,那里简直完美——床铺也非常舒适。那个取暖器虽然个头不大,但供暖效果极佳。由于它被安置在隐蔽的角落里,到了夜晚,滑动门与星空之间仿佛再无任何阻隔。早餐虽简单,却正好为我们提供了启程所需的能量。
午餐也非常棒——堪称徒步的理想补给:美味新鲜的三明治、一块美味至极的蛋糕,还有我许久以来吃过的最新鲜可口的苹果。
这是我们在新西兰的第一次多日徒步之旅,而阿贝尔·塔斯曼向导公司为我们带来的绝佳体验无疑会让我们今后继续选择他们作为向导。
