Fantastic Experience. Thank you Evelyn!!

Great tour! We had Evelyn as our guide. She was incredibly communicative, professional and knowledgeable about all of the places we went! She was so friendly and made sure we all understood where we were going and what we were looking at. We really enjoyed hearing about the history of all of the sites we visited, and you can tell she was very proud and excited to share these experiences with us 🙂. Definitely would book with this company again, and thank you Evelyn!!

The no train train tour

So the guide Evelyn was very good, energetic and informative. The tour did not meet my expectations and I blame poor communication from the tour company for this. I booked the tour around 6 weeks ago, before the hurricane damaged the railway. The company did not inform me the train ride was now impossible. If I had known this I would have cancelled because sitting in a bus visiting places suffering from over tourism was not really my agenda. I only really wanted to see the cat village and ride the train. I knew nothing of the cancellation until departure from Taipei. Also please think before sending the lanterns into the sky. Remember they come back down, look in the trees around and in the river. Nobody cleans them away, they just take the tourists money and do not care. Is a myth worth this kind of pollution? We’re on holiday having fun but should nature not be allowed to thrive without human disturbance and ignorance?

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that Evelyn provided an energetic and informative experience. Regarding the train ride, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, the railway closure due to the hurricane was beyond our control, and we understand how this affected your expectations. We recommend checking with the booking platform or our team for the most updated information before the tour in the future. We also appreciate your concern about environmental impact. Your comments regarding lanterns are valuable, and we will continue to remind guests about responsible practices to minimize environmental effects. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Unflexible, not customer-centered company

Nothing about the trip itself. The trip was nice. But I accidentally paid twice the day before the tour because the system prompted me twice. Instead of showing any goodwill and refunding the duplicate payment, they kept referring to their policy. Very disappointing. I ended up paying twice for the exact same tour on the same day. The company is s...

A Unique Experience in Taiwan!

Our tour of Taiwan with May Ei was a truly pleasant and unique experience. From the very beginning, she made us feel welcomed, and her friendly, approachable nature made it easy to engage with her throughout the trip. My favorite part of the tour was iur experience at the Shifen Old Street. Loved the food too! Highly recommended!

Josefina AKA Nana is the bossy Taiwanese grandma I needed in my life. I'd follow Nana to the end of the earth. The tour moves fast but at least you see a lot!
