Awesome Day Exploring Taipei with Aaron!

Awesome Day Exploring Taipei with Aaron! We had such an amazing day exploring Taipei with Aaron! He was incredibly friendly, thoughtful, and funny, sharing lots of interesting fun facts and local knowledge along the way. He took the time to customize the tour based on our interests and preferences, making the experience feel really personal and special. He also gave us great local recommendations that will help us explore Taipei on our own over the next few days. We had so much fun and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend Aaron!

Amazing experience with Francis

I took this tour one day ahead of a monster typhoon. Francis and her backend team were amazing. She was able to keep our group organized and getting from place to place. The bus was very comfortable, and her instructions on how to get back to the bus (in picture form) were super clear and appreciated! The stops were great and we'll worth seeing. I loved the lanterns, and Jiufen was beautiful. Due to the typhoon, we had to divert to another geological park - but this one was just as beautiful, and Francis always maintained a positive and can do attitude. We really appreciated her and this tour!

Solo Traveler experience

Alan is a Great Guide - hopefully you will be with him ! I chose the English / Mandarin tour group rather than the English / German and got him … he explains every detail even how to get to the spa on the hotels ( which sometimes can be challenging ) showing in the bus pictures of what to do and what’s included ! That also reflects on the rest of the tour … and you may think it might be too much but he gives it a very light funny approach making all very so easy ! Everything is thought in detail … even meal options as those are not included ! It made it feel really easy … The group was also amazing everyone from different backgrounds but friendly and funny the whole 5 days … the only thing not so good is the price as they charge a lot for solo travelers making it less accessible but if you are travelling in two - it’s quite a bargain to be honest for all that’s included and the quality of accommodations and tour itself !

Taipei and Taiwanese Food.

Kaspar was a great guide. He was very flexible and we were able to turn this into a food tour. How lucky we were that Kaspar has a great knowledge and appreciation of Taiwanese cuisine and we went to several eateries to try different dishes. We also saw and heard about the major attractions in Taipei. The itinerary had to be adjusted somewhat to accommodate my disability but Kaspar handled everything so well. Thank you.

Thousand Island Lake and Pinglin Tea Plantation from Taipei

MARIE_W, Oct 2026

A great half day tour

Thank you to Molly for a wonderful tour! It was a pleasant drive out to Thousand Island Lake. We had lots of time to take in the beautiful views from different vantage points. From there we continued on to Pinglin where we had a lovely tasting of 3 local teas at Mr Huang’s tea shop. Then we finished at the Pinglin Tea Museum, which gives lots of interesting facts about the rituals of tea. This is a great way to spend an afternoon outside the city and especially so if you enjoy tea!

Unique sightseeing tour with highly skilled tour guide

My husband and I had a fantastic day with our tour guide, Nicolas Ying. Nicolas started communicating with us a few days before the tour and was well prepared for the day: umbrellas, bottled water, and a carefully timed agenda. His English was very, very good too. Our tour was on a busy Saturday, but Nicolas easily navigated us through the traffic and busy attractions. Be prepared to wear your most comfortable shoes. You will walk a lot and there are several staircases. We came home with a ton of stunning photos and videos, thanks to our experienced tour guide who knew just where to stand for the perfect angle. This tour does not disappoint and gets you outside of the city for some unique sightseeing. Highly recommend!

A day with our guide James

I enjoyed my day with James. He has a rich knowledge of Taiwan and Chinese history that made the tour more enjoyable. We got the 6 hour tour as we we didn’t know if we would last longer but we ended up going over an hour over time because we wanted to spend more time at the stops. Knowing this I would definitely recommend the full day tour.

This was an amazing day...

This was an amazing day trip planned as a result of my twenty one hour layover in Taipei bound for DFW. It was a scheduled group tour and fortunately for me I was the only registered participant. David was the most informative tour guide. I loved the museum and to see Taipei 101 was breathtaking. Highly recommend this day tour.
