点评:The trip from start to finish was outstanding. We stayed on ‘Pepper’. A beautiful boat with two levels, two bedrooms, living area, large dining area, a large front deck, a sauna and a jacuzzi bath. We left the dock at 12:30pm and started our cruise around the backwaters. Lunch was served at around 1pm. It tasted amazing and there was more than enough for the two of us! We loved how the backwaters changed colours as the day progressed. It was unbelievably relaxing and so peaceful. Watching the locals going about their day was a wonder. We chose to have dinner at 7pm after taking a boat ride down one of the tributaries which cost only 2000rp for the two of us. Dinner was again lovely. You can choose to pay extra for fish but we had already had fish for lunch so opted out. We purchased a bottle of wine for dinner and a couple of beers for our trip as there is only water, tea and coffee included on board. The price was very reasonable. We requested these before arrival based on another review I read so I’m not sure if they would have been offered or not. Note that payment is either by cash or google pay only. We do wish we’d have brought more cash so we didn’t have to stress about tipping the staff. We ended up tipping in British pounds though which they were grateful for. There is no ATM nearby. The boat docks for the evening at 5:30pm at the spice route boarding point. We thought this seemed early when booking but the timings work out beautifully. After dinner we enjoyed the jacuzzi bath and sauna followed by a long sleep in a very comfortable bed. You have the option to add a massage or a village walk in the evening also. The boat departs for a shorter morning cruise at 7:30am so we were out of bed for 6:30am. A very tasty and hearty breakfast was served on our way back. All in all I cannot recommend this cruise enough! The staff were extremely attentive without infringing on your privacy to enjoy the experience. All were extremely polite and helpful. One night is enough to enjoy the experience for sure, but I think i’m with everyone else in saying you’ll always wish you stayed longer. It is definitely one of the higher priced cruises on the market but the quality and luxury you receive far outweighs the cost. On departing met three other couples/groups. Two of them had been revisiting spice routes for years and all could not speak highly enough of their experience. We really hope to be back so we can enjoy this cruise again. Book it! You won’t be disappointed.
翻译:整个旅程从开始到结束都非常棒。我们住在“Pepper”号船上。这是一艘漂亮的两层船,有两间卧室、客厅、大型用餐区、大型前甲板、桑拿浴室和按摩浴缸。我们于下午 12:30 离开码头,开始在回水区巡游。午餐在下午 1 点左右供应。味道很棒,而且对我们两个人来说绰绰有余!我们喜欢随着一天的进展,回水的颜色变化。这令人难以置信地放松和平静。看着当地人开始他们的一天真是一个奇迹。我们选择在晚上 7 点乘船游览一条支流后吃晚餐,我们两个人只花了 2000 卢比。晚餐再次美味。您可以选择额外支付鱼费,但我们已经吃了鱼作为午餐,所以选择不支付。我们买了一瓶葡萄酒作为晚餐,还买了几瓶啤酒作为旅行用,因为船上只提供水、茶和咖啡。价格非常合理。根据我读过的另一篇评论,我们在抵达前要求提供这些服务,所以我不确定他们是否会提供。请注意,付款只能用现金或谷歌支付。我们真希望我们能多带点现金,这样我们就不必为给工作人员小费而感到压力了。我们最终给了英镑小费,他们对此表示感谢。附近没有自动取款机。晚上 5:30,船停靠在香料路线登船点。我们在预订时觉得这似乎有点早,但时间安排得很完美。晚餐后,我们享受了按摩浴缸和桑拿,然后在一张非常舒适的床上睡了个好觉。您也可以选择在晚上增加按摩或乡村散步。船在早上 7:30 出发进行较短的早间巡游,所以我们 6:30 就起床了。回程时,我们享用了非常美味和丰盛的早餐。总而言之,我强烈推荐这次巡游!工作人员非常细心,不会侵犯您的隐私,让您享受体验。所有人都非常有礼貌和乐于助人。一晚肯定足以享受这次体验,但我认为我和其他人一样,总是希望自己能多呆一会儿。这绝对是市场上价格较高的游轮之一,但您享受到的质量和奢华远远超过了成本。离开时遇到了另外三对夫妇/团体。其中两人多年来一直在重游香料之路,他们都对他们的经历赞不绝口。我们真的希望回来,这样我们就可以再次享受这次游轮之旅。预订吧!你不会失望的。
