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!!

Great tour. Chiara is fantastic, informative, funny, and accommodating.
Also, very grateful for assisting me with my forgotten bags. Contacted tour number and they were very helpful and pleasant about getting my forgotten bags to my hotel free of charge.
I would give the 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The tour was a great education into Taipei's landmarks and history. I certainly learned a lot and got some steps in. Vans are comfortable and there are several opportunities to grab souvenirs and food. Definitely take this tour if you have a whole day free.

We had a wonderful experience with Sharon, our guide. She was very efficient in explaining the various sites and offering a historical background. It was a very good overview of Taipei.
arnold_N, Feb 2026
Tony was tremendous everything was running like clockwork. We learned a great amount and enjoyed ourselves greatly.
Ricardo_M, Feb 2026
This was a thorough, informative, productive, well planned and considerate tour guide. Kia was patient with us, being that the Uber driver dropped us off at the wrong spot. She picked us up and we all went on the tour. Lunch time, bathroom breaks, etc was well planned. Bravo and good job.
Eric_V, Feb 2026

This was a complete tour of Taipei. Many stops, time for shopping. Our guide Kiari was excellent. She provided excellent background information before and after the stops. If you can pick your guide, pick her!
Melody_R, Feb 2026
We had a fantastic experience touring Taipei with Mr. Gordon! He did an outstanding job showing us the city’s highlights and sharing the history and culture behind each stop. His knowledge was impressive, and he explained everything in clear, excellent English, which made the tour easy to follow and very engaging.
Mr. Gordon was friendly, professional, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and included throughout the day. You can tell he truly enjoys what he does, and that enthusiasm made the experience even more enjoyable for us. We learned so much while also having a great time.
Highly recommend Mr. Gordon to anyone looking for an informative and enjoyable way to explore Taipei!

AlexanderHoskins, Feb 2026
Jennie was such an enthusiastic, accommodating, and informative guide! The transportation was timely and comfortable, and the sites were all very interesting - there was so much to see in such a short period of time that we went back to many places the next day! A great introduction to Taipei!
Marnie_B, Jan 2026
Loved this tour!! It was such a wonderful way to see Taipei! I really had only one day to see the city so I chose this tour for the variety. We saw the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, the Longshan Temple, Taipei 101 and various shopping districts! I don’t have a lot of experience navigating public transport in foreign countries or speak Mandarin competently so I wanted to go with a tour company to avoid any mishaps on. Would definitely recommend! We had a great older group from the States mainly! The guide, Chiara, was very knowledgeable and kind.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad to hear that the tour allowed you to see so many of Taipei’s highlights in just one day and made navigating the city stress-free. It’s wonderful that Chiara’s knowledge and kindness enhanced your experience, and that you enjoyed the company of your fellow travelers. We really appreciate your recommendation and are thrilled you had such a great time!

What a wonderful way to get a large picture overview of some of the notable landmarks of Taipei! I was in Taiwan for a two week Intrepid tour, but was arrived extra early as we were only staying one day in Taipei. I chose take this tour in order to see more of the city and I do not regret it one bit. Our guide was excellent, cheerful, and organized with great English. He was super organized and clear with his explanations and reallly klept our tour moving along. Edison Tours did a great job communication and providing clear directions. We made several notable stops during a very busy day, but it was particularly gratifying to visit Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall and beautiful Longshan Temple.

I love this experince trip. Me & firends were enjoy this trip so so much as our tour guide was so amazing. He informed us very detail about city of Taipei.
Israel_K, Dec 2025
The tour was very pleasant and informing about what happened in this country after the 2nd WW and milestones about how they manage to reach democracy. Tonny the guide was impressive.
dianemckinney96, Dec 2025
There is a lot packed into this tour, but it is great because you do see so much so quickly and really get an idea of downtown Taipei. Our guide Jenny was very knowledgeable and really tried to give us as much information as she could as we went, we also had someone who had limited walking ability and she was good with trying to get us in and out of places that were convenient Working with that. I would definitely recommend this tour to get a really quick glimpse of everything! We also had a driver along with the guy who is able to pull in and out of busy places. I like using Viator because we always feel safe using them in a foreign country knowing they are responsible and always keep us safe on tours.
Olga_R, Dec 2025
The best experience ever!
English expression outstanding!!! Kiara a professional with perfect communication and knowledge. Conveyed information easy to interpret. She showed around Taipe, Temples, garden, palaces. She took us to a family restaurant food experience was amazing.
Jan_R, Dec 2025
Great way to see the city sights. Our guide Kevin was excellent-lots of information given while travelling accompanied by pictures to help understanding, delivered enthusiastically.
The only slight negative is there is very little time to see the Taipei 101 Tower(extra fee). We were lucky as the queue was small & we literally went up, photo & down.
Monica_l, Nov 2025
Kira was amazing! Super patient and knowledgeable. She helped rearrange the day so we would not miss the changing of the guards. This change did not affect the tour at all, it really added to it and she made it so seamless.
