  • Green (Hung-Chi Wang) is a great tour guide

    Great to get a brief taste of the interesting City of Taipei. Best if your layover is minimum of 7hr (because it does take sometime to get into the City by express train- no problem though).

  • Perfect Layover Timekiller. Great Guiide

    Perfect layover activity. Green met us at an easy to find spot and was very knowledgeable with Taiwan. He presented an itinerary but was understanding and flexible when we needed to adjust it. Perfect mix of culture and history.

  • Taipei for the day!

    Guide was patient and very accommodating. Watched my belongings for me while I shopped. I think it’s important to know that the price of the tour only pays for transportation to and from airport. It does not pay for all the stops on the train between that time. I thought for the price, all transportation could have been paid.

  • Great few hours with Alice

    I had a very nice stay in Taipei. My local host Alice (Wen Yi) was able to show me a lot of Taipei despite my relatively short stay. She speaks very good English (perfect) and so we had a very nice conversation in which I learnt a lot about the city, life there and also about the history. The tour together with Alice was wonderful and I really can recommend her. My Time was excellent . I would give her 5 stars from 5 stars available
