Thank you, Howard! :)

My husband and I had a short layover in Taipei and wanted to get out of TPE to see some of the city, knowing it would need to be short. Our guide Howard went above and beyond to make this a reality and use our limited time wisely! He was there at the arrivals gate to meet us when we landed, drove us to Longshan Temple and Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, the two spots we prioritized seeing most! He was extremely knowledgeable about Taipei, pointed out other notable sites as we passed them, gave us a good window of time to see what we wanted, and got us back to the airport with plenty of buffer time for a smooth check-in, customs, and boarding experience. Howard really made the trip, and we are extremely grateful to have met him. His flexibility, friendliness, excellent time management, and great communication before and during the tour were of the highest standard. We would be thrilled to recommend him to anyone we know visiting Taipei!

Great experience

The tour was a lot of fun and the guide Tony showed us the city with a lot of commitment. The program has deviated (presumably due to the timing of the tour) from what was described. Tony made sure we were back on time at the airport. He also took great photos for us. For us it was a perfect way to bridge our time at the stopover and get to know Teipeh at the same time.

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed your layover tour in Taipei and that Tony’s enthusiasm, helpfulness, and photography made the experience memorable. A short stopover can be challenging to plan, so we’re glad the tour helped you make the most of your time and still return to the airport comfortably and on schedule. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the slight adjustment to the itinerary. With shorter tours, we sometimes adapt the program based on timing, traffic conditions, or guest preferences to ensure the best possible experience. Thank you again for choosing our tour during your stopover, and we hope to welcome you back to Taiwan for a longer visit in the future!

Excellent

Eda was great. She was knowledgable and kind. She was helpful in deciding what to do and where to go and gave us freedom to explore at each destination.

Nice tour, but be prepared to pay

Our tour guide, Stanley, was great. Super nice and informative, though sometimes a bit hard to understand. That being said, this is an expensive tour. No where does it say that on top of the 480 dollar price you should be prepared for paying for your own meals. Every other tasting tour we’ve taken has included the food in the price. We were caught off guard and had to use an ATM. Had we known we’d be paying, we probably would have chosen another tour company that included the food.

Perfect layover trip

Joseph was a wonderful guide and I will definitely book with him again. I was able to see the highlights of Taipei and learn the next places I want to see when I have more time.

Taipei 4hr Layover Tour

I’m writing this one year later. My tour guide, Spencer, picked me up from the airport. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I enjoyed my 4hr tour around Taipei. And Spencer bought me breakfast, though it wasn’t apart of the tour. Thank you for your hospitality ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Operator response

Thanks a bunch! Your review made our day and Spencer's brighter than a disco ball at a rave!

Chia Jung was a great guide. He speaks English well and knows his stuff.

We went to the 89th floor observaton lounge of 101 in Taipei. We had a nighttime panoramic view of the city. Then, our guide took us to the famous Taipei night market to sample delicious street foods and soak up the local culture.

We didn’t get to Taipei...

We didn’t get to Taipei because of traffic so actually spent most of our time in a car chatting with our guide who was great but pretty limited as to what we could see or do.
