Alex was a great tour guide. We got to see a lot of interesting places in Hualien. We also got a chance to practice our Mandarian with him throughout the entire tour. The places you will visit are stunning. Be prepared to walk and climb stairs.
Best part of our trip to Taiwan

We’ve been in Taiwan 10 days and this was the best part of our trip. Sam was our guide and we couldn’t have seen most of what we saw without him. This company was also super flexible on timing and itinerary. We already went to the sugar factory so Sam worked with us to show us something else we’d enjoy. Our friends we went with decided to stay in Taipei because Taroko is closed but they regretted it. There is so much majestic natural beauty to see here. Thank you Sam!!! We will come to Hualien soon!
