Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Onder leiding van een professionele gids kunt u een ontspannen wandeling maken langs het pad naast de prachtige waterval, zodat u de harmonieuze melodie van het water kunt ervaren.
Shifen is een stad rijk aan cultuur en geschiedenis die een mooie blik biedt op het prachtige natuurlijke landschap van Taiwan. Je kunt overwegen om een Chinese Lantaarn uit te brengen met een wens erop geschreven om hem de lucht in te laten gaan.
Oorspronkelijk gebouwd tijdens de Japanse koloniale periode voor mijnbouwdoeleinden, is dit historische treinstation sindsdien omgetoverd tot een populaire fotoplek voor bezoekers na het loslaten van hemellantaarns. Vanaf hier kunt u op de unieke trein van de Pingxi Line stappen en naar Houtong Cat Village gaan, een charmante bestemming die ooit door CNN werd aanbevolen.
Houtong begon in het verleden beroemd te worden door de mijnbouw, en nu is het meer bekend om de katten die in het dorp wonen.
Jiufen oude straat, een van de beroemdste attracties in Noord-Taiwan. Het is een goede plek om te genieten van de Taiwanese thee en te ontspannen in het theehuis. Wandelend langs de oude straat, kunt u het uitzicht op zowel de bergen en de zee zien

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!!
Travel guide with very friendly design, even when it had rained all day. Translation app in German.
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?

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.
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...

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!
