Everything was excellent! Barbie had great knowledge of all the places we visited and was able to answer every question I asked right away. She is also a very positive, friendly, and cheerful person who makes you feel completely comfortable throughout the tour. I really enjoyed my time with her and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Taipei!

    Basic Taipei 1/2 day...

    Martin_Z, Sep 2026
    Basic Taipei 1/2 day tour. Add costs for MRT, taxi or Uber. Tour guide was very friendly but had somewhat limited knowledge about the sights visited

    Best Tour Guide Ever!

    Barbie is an amazing tour guide! She is very knowledgeable, speaks perfect English and is so warm and engaging. We would spend time with her at any time we are in Taiwan.

    Great Tour!

    Loved this tour! Barbie was great. Very knowledgeable and fun. Would definitely recommend this to someone short on time in Taipei.

    Private walking tour Taipei

    consolatern, Sep 2026
    My tour guide, Barbie, was excellent, knowledgeable, and highly passionate. However, the tour structure itself was disappointing. This is my second Viator tour where the guide repeatedly asked what I wanted to do, despite booking a specific itinerary. As a tourist, I expect the pre-paid itinerary to be followed, but instead, I felt pressured to skip certain stops.The tour company does not factor in travel time between locations, making it impossible to see everything. Furthermore, you must pay extra for taxis/Ubers between spots, and some listed attractions were closed or poorly timed (such as a night market scheduled during a day tour). Finally, hotel pickup was not available as advertised, requiring a self-funded trip to the meeting point. While I enjoyed Barbie's guiding, the overall description was misleading and left me feeling like I missed out.

    Walking tour with Barbie who was a great tour guide. She gave us lots of context throughout and she was super friendly.

    Quick but great!

    Lily was an excellent tour guide! She was incredibly friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. She took the time to explain things clearly and helped us learn how to use the metro, which was very helpful. Lily also went out of her way to take photos for us, making sure we captured some great memories from the tour. Her positive attitude and expertise made the whole experience even better. We truly enjoyed our time with her and highly recommend Lily to anyone visiting! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Taipei experience from Keelung

    Kevin_S, Mar 2026
    Allow plenty of time to get around the city using train and metro, very cheap way to get around much better than expensive taxis. Lots of places to visit, 101 Tower, Memorial Park and changing of the guard, must sample the bubble tea and friend chicken etc Lots of shops available including all the top brands and some local ones. Our guide was great and explained lots of things about all aspects of Taiwan and the city of Taipei. We would definitely return but with lots more time so as to see all the island and its features 👍

    Our guide, Barbie, was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and interesting. We opted for a tea tasting/ceremony which we truly enjoyed- the young Tea Master was perfect. Finished with Moon Cake tasting that we really enjoyed.

    Taipei must see places and Taiwanese essentials

    Hanspeter_H, Feb 2025
    Tommy was my tour guide. He teached me in Taiwanese and Taipei essentials which I highly appreciated. These essentials were very helpful for me in the following days. Tommy brought me CKS Memorial exactly when the changing of the guard took place. Perfect timing! Tommy is an excelllent guide. Thank you!
