5.00We had a great day with Trix exploring Shifen, Jiufen, and Yehliu. He speaks excellent English, is very knowledgeable, and made everything easy to understand and enjoyable. Trix was attentive, kept us safe, and ensured we stayed on time without feeling rushed. The whole trip was smooth and well-organised. Highly recommend Trix if you want a reliable and friendly guide to see the best of northern Taiwan!
Great tour and great guide!

5.00Josefina (NaNa) was a wonderful and helpful guide and very friendly. The tour started and ended on time and we stuck to the time well. Must say everything was a bit hurried but I guess it has to be to stick to the times. Jiufen requires more than 2 hours if you are planning to eat there and Yielou definitely needs more time to get to all the rocks. Shifen waterfall is not worth the time spend though it’s on the way. Maybe allocate more time to other attractions?
Happy day tour

From hidden gems to historical highlights, every stop was well-paced and interesting. Highly recommend this guide to anyone looking for a top-notch tour!”
The itinerary was ideal...

5.00The itinerary was ideal to see several parts of Northern Taiwan, and escaping from the busy-ness of Taipei. Really enjoyed each spot, especially old Shifen street where we got to light up the lanterns. Jeannie was a great professional guide. So skilled at switching back and forth between English and Chinese. Very appreciative that she pre-arranged food orders for us - the stuffed chicken wing is a must-get! Also, she went above and beyond to make sure we got back to the parking lot on time when the shuttle bus let another group on instead of us. It’s a very long tour with lots of walking but well worth the value.

5.0010/10 recommend!! Well worth the price! Full day event- met at 9am and finished about 5:30pm. Tour leader was fantastic and communicated well with everyone! Bring cash as no international ATM’s in these small towns.

Yehliu, Jiufen and Shifen tour
Mike R,Apr 4, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Amazing. I have taken many day trips around the world and this one is one of my favorites. The lantern experience and the waterfall experience at Shifen was amazing despite the rain falling. The Jiufen Old Town seemed to go on forever and the Yehliu Geopark was very unique. Our tour guide Lendl was just as amazing as the tour. Don’t miss this tour when traveling in Taipei.
