Top Taipei Private Sightseeing Tours - page 2

We are a family of five on a private tour. Tony, picked us up at our accommodation bang on time. He also communicated with us a day before the tour and gave us instruction what to bring. We didn’t feel rushed. We had been given ample time to enjoy the sceneries. Tony took us to a seafood restaurant. We didn’t have enough cash so Tony paid part of it and I paid him back after finding an ATM. This day trip is worth it. You feel relax with enough space to sit not feeling cramped. Tony treated us to Jiufen’s local delicacy of peanut ice cream wrap. It was delicious. I wish I had more. We missed the waterfall. It was our fault that we ran out of time. Tony was kind enough to compensate it, he allowed us to stop at Taipei 101 for a quick picture taking. I highly recommend booking your tour with Aviator. They are reliable.

We had such a great time on this private tour. The vehicle was big and spacious. Allen, our guide, showed us to the places where we could get the best photos and gave us a good background and history of the area. Allen was funny and knowledgeable. He made sure we beat the crowds and we got to see the best. Highly recommended ! I would recommend this tour over the mass joiner tours. The extra price is worth the VIP treatment and access. The joiner tours all ended early and did not get to see jiufen at night.

We booked the Jiufen, Shifen, and Houtong Cat Village private tour with Sean and it was one of the best decisions of our entire trip to Taiwan. Hitting three such different spots in one day could easily feel rushed, but Sean paced everything perfectly and made each place feel special. Jiufen was stunning — Sean knew exactly where to position us for the best views and helped us avoid the crowds. At Shifen, he made the sky lantern experience feel genuinely memorable rather than just a tourist checkbox. And Houtong? The cats basically came to us, which we’re pretty sure was Sean’s doing. Beyond the itinerary itself, Sean was just great company — friendly, flexible, and full of local knowledge that you won’t find in any guidebook. Having a private driver and guide made the whole day feel effortless. Highly recommend, don’t even think about doing this one without him.

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.

After exiting baggage claim, my private driver was at the designated area for passenger pick up service. He had a board up with my name written on it. I approached him. We greeted and he led me outside to a designated place to wait while he went to get his car. His vehicle was a clean comfortable minivan. He loaded my 2 luggage and we headed to my hotel. He gave me a bottle of water as I was seated. As we were riding along, he pointed out areas we were passing and made suggestions of places to visit in accordance to my interests, as well as places to eat, night markets info, etc. When we arrived at my hotel, he unloaded my bags and gave me a Taipei map of undiscovered places, in English and the native language guide, and a guide to Muslim friendly travel. I was very pleased with my experience with this company and my private driver.

This is easily one of the best tours or experiences I’ve ever been on in any country. Vicky had so much information and brought us SO to many incredible spots to try local specialties, providing recommendations for each and helping us to order. We learned and ate so much, and all for less than $10 USD per person. This tour simply cannot be missed!

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

I had an absolutely wonderful day with Charlotte. It was my fourth and last day in Taiwan, and she took me to many places and I hadn't seen yet, and encouraged me to try the things I'd heard about but didn't know where or how to try. So we had tea eggs (hard boiled eggs marinated in tea) a type of fruit I've already forgotten the name of, and various nut and sesame and tea infused treats. We went to a traditional market, and I got to ask all my many questions, mostly: what is THAT? I have traveled in Asia before, to Japan and Singapore and Indonesia, but it was a luxury to ask all my questions. We went the beautiful Grand Hotel built by Chaing Kai-shek to receive his guests, and also to a lovely smaller temple, My favorite thing was that we went to a tea house to have traditional Taiwanese tea. The Makong Gondola was closed for maintenance this week, and there wasn't enough time to go up the mountain, but Charlotte found me a tea house in town. It was very soothing to have the tea demonstration and then sit and enjoy it. I highly recommend the experience. I also highly recommend this tour and Charlotte!
