Our private day tour with Nicolas Ying was phenomenal. He showed us all the main highlights of Taipei- and was very informative. We learned a lot- and really had a wonderful day. Meticulously planned and well executed!

If you’ve got limited time in Taipei and want to see the city without running yourself into the ground, book a day with Sean. He picked me up directly from the airport and we went straight into the tour—no time wasted. We hit the major spots: Dalongdong Baoan Temple, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall (caught the changing of the guard), the National Palace Museum, and Taipei 101. The itinerary was well-paced, informative, and flexible enough to adjust when the jet lag inevitably showed up. We wrapped things up with a drop-off at my hotel, right on time. Sean kept the whole day easy and enjoyable. He shared just the right amount of info—enough to keep things interesting without turning it into a lecture. Knows the city well, keeps the vibe low-key, and makes it feel more like you’re exploring with a knowledgeable local than tagging along on a tour. Would definitely recommend.
Obvious to say but the tour experience greatly depends on the guide

James was our tour guide and while he was nice and accommodating, we struggled to understand about 50% of what he was telling us. Halfway through the tour we kind of gave up and just noddled politely when he tried to provide context to the landmarks. Also, we had just gone on a tour the night before with an AMAZING guide so we were unfortunately comparing him to that experience.
Very Thorough!

On our first day in Taipei, I thought a simple city tour would be relaxing. I was wrong. This tour was busy, thorough, and fast paced! We were fine with the pace, but we were go-go-go and got to see quite a lot! Nicholas was our guide, and a great guy! Made sure we got our money worth, that's for sure! Allowed us time to take photos, stroll on our own, and was conscious of the heat, and found time to get us in some air conditioned areas throughout the day! I would have left 5 stars if not for one reason. There was a point we were taken to a tea ceremony. The lady was very sweet, and I'm glad I got to see the ceremony, however, there was a tad bit of an expectation to buy. I did buy, and I love buying souvenirs, but anytime a tour builds in an "expectation to buy" without my knowing, I can't rate 5 stars.
