Really good. Our guide is knowledgeable about the area and has a very pleasant and helpful in all our needs.

We were a married couple visiting Taipei and booked this food tour. Megan, the tour guide, asked us if we were a couple. So, we said yes. No wonder, why she asked us, she ordered only one serving for most of the food that we tasted. The fee in booking this tour, was for each person. So, it is expected that the food order for each food tasted should be for each person. But no, she ordered only one serving of food for both of us. The tour fee is very expensive, compared to the food cost and the service provided. We even had to pay for our MRT fare, though it is minimal.
