《说着英语“趣”旅行》第015集：自助旅行好有趣

本期对话：

ERIC：The summer holiday is coming. Do you have any plan for it?

DENNY：I will take my mom to Bali.

ERIC：Oh, the scenery there is marvelous. Are you going with a tour agency or independent travel?

DENNY：The latter, of course. In a package tour, what I really hate is that we are forced to spend lots of time shopping even if we have little interest in the goods they recommend.

ERIC：Yes, another disadvantage is that the tourists have to follow the travel agency’s schedule.

DENNY：I know, but in an independent travel, we can make our own itinerary.

ERIC：And besides that, it’s great to choose your own travel mates.

埃里克：要放暑假了。你有什么打算吗？

丹尼：我要带我妈去巴厘岛。

埃里克：哦，那里的景色美极了。你是跟旅行团还是自助游？

丹尼：当然是自助游。跟团最讨厌的地方就是我们要被迫花时间购物，哪怕我们对他们推荐的东西一点兴趣都没有。

埃里克：是啊，跟团还有一个缺点就是游客必须听从旅行社的日程安排。

丹尼：我知道，但要是自助游的话，我们就能自主制定行程。

埃里克：不仅如此，能自己选择旅伴也是件很棒的事。
