Top Taipei Private Sightseeing Tours - page 10

Ryan is a very experienced driver and tour guide. He took us to Jehliu Geopark, beat the rush and took some great photos before it poured down. Then we headed to Shifen and Jiufen, both wonderful villages, both unique in their own ways. One of the highlights for my kids was to write our wishes on the lantern and set it off, very memorable experience.

Booked online from the US and from the time of booking to pickup everything was perfect. I recommend downloading whatsup app, send a message confirming to the number provided after booking. They immediately confirmed my request. As my plane landed the driver messaged me with clear easy details where to meet. Very simple and highly recommended. The driver was excellent on communication and I felt very safe.

High into the hills of Taiwan. Whilst a bit of walking we didn't find it too onerous and we are in our late 70's. Our wonderful guide Howard devised a route which was faily flat as there are lots of uneven paths and many stairs Went to jifen Water fall which was lovely and had a sky lantern experience in the middle of a train track just before the train came. Great fun

Will worked with us so closely that we got exactly what we wanted to out of our few hours in Taipei! Our ship was leaving at 3pm, so Will made sure we got back by 2:35 so we didn’t worry a bit! Will was due to arrive at 9am. We arrived at the dock at 8:30am, Will was there early, so out trip began 30 minutes early so we were able to squeeze in even more! We had chosen 3 tiers of locations that we wanted to see which was based on many items on our ships excursions. We ended up getting more out of our trip than any one of the ship excursions, at a cost of less than the ship excursion. We LOVED the sky lanterns! Will helped us choose his favorite vendor, who videotaped the lantern and us for free on our phone. We loved the lantern stair step village of Juifen, even on our rainy day. Don’t miss it! Will knows a stop that misses half of the stairs, which was very helpful! The Chiang Kai Shek memorial square is extremely memorable. Don’t miss the souvenir shop below the memorial. Loved seeing the Presidential Palace and 101Taipei Tower. Great, comfortable vehicle. A wonderful value for your money; don’t miss Will!

This walking tour goes through Taiwan's history while walking around Old Town. Taile our guide did an excellent job explaining Taiwans history, she was very engaging, made the history come alive and was honest about the dark side of Taiwan's colonized past to the current situation today between Taiwan and China. If you are interested in Taiwans history, I recommend this tour.

Make sure you are hungry when you start this trip. The food tips are fantastic and the tastings were delicious and very inexpensive. York, our guide, was amazing, knowledgeable and fun. We laughed during the whole walk. Note: some of the best foods were at the end so don’t eat just anything. Be choosy and share items.

We had an excellent full-day private driving tour of Taipei and highly recommend it. Our guide Eddy was professional, friendly, fluent in English and knowledgeable, and made the entire day enjoyable and stress-free. He showed us a mix of major highlights and local spots, shared interesting history and made sure everything was comfortable and well-paced. It was an excellent way to see Taipei in a short amount of time.

Our tour guide Alex was great, friendly, spoke excellent English and looked after us through the day. We got to the yehliu geopark before the crowds too which was awesome so managed to get some pics of the queen's head before the hordes arrived Would love to spend more time in each of the locations but that will have to wait for our next trip, this was still a great day trip to the north of Taipei
