Private Taroko Gorge National Park Day Tour

Quan_T, May 2026

Good tour with a friendly tour guide

My partner and I had a great time on this tour. Even though all the trails were closed due to the big earthquake in 2024, our tour guide, Steven, was still able to show us quite a few good spots to explore and take photos. Steven was very friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and didn’t rush us and let us take our time to enjoy the beauty of Tarako Gorge National Park. Highly recommended.

We initially tried to get a public bus to Taroko Gorge however the system is quite unreliable. We instead booked a private tour and couldn't be happier. Jimmy was outstanding, he catered the trip for us as we enjoyed taking photos and took us to some very scenic spots not many other people were stopped at and allowed us extra time. Also the hand made mochi and lemonade was the icing on top. We were so thankful for Jimmy having great local knowledge and helping us with this great experience.

Fabulous tour - would highly recommend

This was a fabulous day tour, with lots to see and do. Our tour guide, Isabella was fantastic, very detailed and easy to understand. We loved the sky lanterns and the Geo Park. My only suggestion is It would have been nicer if the group could have eaten lunch together at a nice restaurant since the tour took 9 hours and not much time to each. The tour provided water and the coach was very comfortable and great AC.

Perfect day trip to Pingxi area from Taipei!

Perfect day trip from Taipei to Pingxi area to see Shifen, Jiufen and Yehliu in one day. These are must see places and this tour allows all to be visited in one day from Taipei with the convenience of a driver and guide. Walter was a friendly, knowledgeable guide who kept an excellent schedule and ensured everyone was on track with timings, food, and toilet breaks, and we all had a great time. The Shifen waterfall was beautiful including the walk to it, with plenty of time to admire and take pictures. The sky lantern experience at Shifen old town was a highlight of my whole Taiwan trip, writing on the paper lantern and releasing it into the sky on the train tracks. Juifen had lots of great food shops and also the Spirited Away teahouse. Yehliu Geopark was something different with very interesting rock formations.

Yangmingshan, Yehliu, Jiufen & Shifen Private Tour From Taipei

Ana_L, Apr 2026

Reliable tour operator

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.

Amazing Private Tour !!

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.

Awesome Tour! Reina is the BEST!

Excellent, very informative tour - especially because Reina, our guide, was like a walking history book! Her knowledge was very impressive, as well as her people skills. Very professional tour, and our driver, Mr Chan, was an expert driver. Reina speaks great English and was easily understood. Recommend this small group tour (there were only 3 of us) and hope you get Reina!!

Thousand Island Lake and Pinglin Tea Plantation from Taipei

Pamela_A, Dec 2025

Tea tasting and scenic views

Casual drive through the mountains just south of Taipei. Saw local tea fields over looking the thousand island lake. Guide was helpful, especially answering questions about the fauna. The highlight was the tea tasting with a tea master: three teas of which two were locally grown.
