Beautiful area. It’s essentially driver service to Sun Moon Lake. Included in the tour is a ferry ride which stops in 2 other areas around the lake with local food and craft as listed in the tour description. There’s not really a guide. Just a driver to get you to the sight for sightseeing.
Awesome guide Joseph

The 12-hour tour involved 6 hours of travel to and from Taipei to sun moon lake. Not much else, except for the bike ride. It would have been better if the tour inclyuded an optional activity for those who do not want to do the bike ride, for example, a tea ceremony since the Sun Moon Lake area boasts of exceptional tea.
Beautiful day!
