Interesting Tour, Interesting City!

5.00We had a great time with Keelung For A Walk! The tour was well-paced, informative, and taught us so much about Keelung's history and culture. We especially enjoyed getting to try some local snacks that we wouldn't have found otherwise, and getting to see interesting places all across Keelung. Our guide (Ilun) was incredibly knowledgable, helpful, and adept at her job.

5.00The tour we had in Keelung with Mila (assisted by Annie) was absolutely excellent and couldn’t be faulted! Extremely informative and gave us a good insight into Taiwanese culture, which we never would have known had we not done the tour. We have to say that Mila (and Annie) could not have done more, she went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable!

5.00During this tour I got to experience the variety of things Keelung has to offer all at once! The tour guide was really friendly and they had a lot of knowledge about the history of Keelung from the temples to the markets. We also had an elder from Keelung join us who shared many of their experiences growing up in Keelung. Overall, I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to see the variety of cultural sites in Keelung.

5.00It was a really fun, exciting and learning experience to walk through Keelungs streets with our local guide Ilun! We learned a lot about Keelung and saw exciting markets, beautiful temples and small unknown streets. Ilun could answer all our questions and was a very nice and skillful guide.

Great time despite the rain

5.00Our guide was very informative and provided a great walking tour despite the rain. She adapted the tour so we were under shelter most of the time. Keelung is an interesting city and we took the tour off of a cruise ship. The starting point was very close nearby. The use of an audio system was very helpful. At the end of the tour our guide dropped us off at a delightful tea house that had a view overlooking the harbor.
Keelung Tour Experience

5.00Tours are very informative! I learned a lot about the history and culture of Keelung. I have been on four tours: midnight fish market, city tour, heping island tour, and the food tour. Ilun, Mila, and Benny are all very kind, helpful, and professional. Every tour felt personal and I felt like I got to connect to the other guests on the tour. Each tour showed me a new side of Keelung and highlighted the beauty of the place. I would recommend for anyone interested in learning about history and local culture to come and enjoy! The tours usually come with snacks and goodies like postcards at the end. The food recommendations I received were very helpful during my time in Keelung. These photos are from the food tour.
