5.00I considered this tour for weeks and kept telling myself I could just do it on my own. While going solo would have afforded me more time in each place, it also would have added on so much more stress. Our tour guide, Kate, was such a character. I enjoyed her stories and suggestions. Loved the food options she recommended, especially at Shifen. One thing I wish I knew ahead of time (though I’m sure reviews probably mentioned and I just overlooked) was that an umbrella wouldn’t be enough to deal with the rain in Jiufen and especially the Geopark. My stuff in my backpack got pretty soaked at Jiufen. Luckily, there were lots of poncho options outside of the Geopark so that helped me get less soaked than I otherwise would’ve been. The tea at the famous A-Mei Teahouse exceeded my expectations, and I actually really loved doing the lantern activity at Shifen. Highlights of the day for sure. Lastly, I love that they dropped us off at Raohe Night Market. It was the perfect ending to the day. Look, I get it, I’m one of those people often reluctant to do this type of touristy tour but I actually think this one was so worth it. So just book it already!
Highly recommend for time efficient and Sam is a great guide

5.00Sam was a great tour guide and was very friendly, and provided lots of good information and recommendations for each location. For a smaller group, the van was clean and comfortable. The tour was a great way to see several places in 1 day, without having to navigate public transportation. I would highly recommend this tour!

5.00Our guide Vivian was charismatic and very organized. She sent clear information and gave good recommendations. These are places I wouldn’t have been able to get to on my own. Vivian would order items if requested (such as lanterns) so they were ready and waiting for you. She also made lunch reservations if you wanted to go to a busy place. The time spent at each location was perfect.
A must
