Berry Tsai is the best - Berry is an outstanding driver and tour guide. His English is outstanding. He explained the history of Taiwan, and explained every place on the tour. He walked with me through every place to explain things and take amazing pictures. He provided plenty of water in the car (it was a hot day). For lunch, he suggested a restaurant that had a beautiful view, and worked hard to get a table with a great view. I feel so lucky to have been assigned Berry for this tour.

Outstanding experience! - We had a wonderful day with Berry as our expert guide. He picked us up at the hotel promptly, accompanied us to the various destinations and shared a wealth of information throughout our journey. We visited Shifen old Street and waterfall, stopped at the old gold mining facility to see the outflow of water mixing with the ocean, visited and lunched at Jiufen, and then went to the beautiful and insoiring geological park. All were excellent and we were so glad to have a guide to efficiently take us to the best spots and accomplished much more this way. Overlap an awesome experience that we would highly recommend!

Sightseeing done right! - With Kevin as our tour guide we got to experience the wonderful island of Taiwan, absolutely worth it. He was a first class guide, we had an amazing time. Nature was breathtaking, and we also shared many stories and a lot of laughs. Pick-up and drop-off at our apartment was also easy and effortless. And you definitely have to try the stinky tofu in Shifen 😁

Fantastic 1st Trip to Taiwan - We had a great time in all of the locations despite it raining all day and it is definitely a must-see activity. Our guide Kevin was fantastic and provided us with umbrellas and ensured we had a good time despite the rain. His English was very good and he was very easy to communicate with and took us to some really good food spots.

Great day in taiwan - Excellent way to spend a day exploring the countryside outside of Taipei. Phyllis our driver/tour guide was very good. Beautiful Mercedes van and excellent driver. Phyllis was able to tailor this tour to our needs and was great at giving insights to the various stops on the tour she is a well informed and interesting conversationalist. Weather was rainy and Phyllis provided umbrellas and even stopped an to buy us hot Coffee/tea/bubble tea. When we were getting hungry she found us great place for local food and did great job translating. Phyllis was there when we needed but gave us space to enjoy on our own..perfect guide. I would have no problem recommending this tour to friends and family!

Not a tour, just a private driver - Not really a tour. Just a private driver taking us to places.. driver was professional and courteous and car was clean. But do not expect a walking tour guide.
