What To Expect
YehLiu Geopark
Yehliu Geological Park (野柳地質公園) resides within a cape 1.7km long and is home to some of the most famous eroded rock formations in the world.
Golden Waterfall
Golden Waterfall is located near the Gold Ecological Park (黃金博物園區) in Jinguashi. Although real gold flowing from these falls would be too good to be true, the water is certainly a beautiful gold color as a result of the combination of regular rainfall in this mining area and the abundance of heavy metal elements deposited in the riverbed.

5.00We had a great day with John as he drive us to the various sites. While we didn’t expect it, he provided us with context and assisted with navigating how to best take advantage of the places we visited. This was during a very rainy day. Thank you

5.00This is a great trip! It included more activities than expected! We visited the Geopark (absolutely stunning!) early to avoid the crowds, then made a wonderful little hike in the mountains in a beautiful surrounding (our guide even packed walking sticks for us!), went to the Shifen waterfall, got invited to a bubble tea by our perfect guide Martin, went to the sky lantern place, had a really good lunch in a food court, saw the golden waterfall and ended up in Jiufen (what we personally didn’t like so much as it was overcrowded, but Martin found a secret escape way for us!). We had the best driver and tour guide ever! Martin picked us up at the hotel and then a second couple as well. His car is very comfortable and clean and brand new. He provided water for us and even had some Chinese medicine for the throat of my husband! He was driving smoothly and always found a parking space nearby. Additionally we had perfect weather, sunshine all day. I highly recommend to do this tour with Martin!
A very enjoyable trip for our family of five

5.00The trip is well run. Our driver Kenny was polite, friendly and experienced. We are so glad that we booked this trip! It would be a lot more work if we were to take public transportation.
Excellent tour

5.00The geopark and old streets visit of jiufen and shifen is a definite must do - really unique and wow experience. Our tour guide was highly accommodative and friendly, making the trip really enjoyable. Mr leong even went the extra mile by bringing us to shenkeng and encouraging us to try stinky tofu. Shen keng old street visit was the icing on the cake

5.00James was very helpful and insured we had a great day and experienced everything that was included in the tour. Since it was the off season, our tour became a private tour. Although Jame's english was limited we were able to communicate easily with the use of google translate. He went out of his way to show us the sights. We really had a good time.
