    Bessy was very informative and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour! She told us so much about the history of Taiwan. I did this fresh off the plane and it’s a great introduction to the city!

    If you don't want to walk very much this is a great way to get some information about the history of taiwan. I wished we would have walked more to cover more ground but I don't think that was what this tour was for.

  • Great first day introduction to Taipei

    Great experience , lots to learn from Leo around the history of Taiwan and Taipei . The walk wasn’t too bad or too far , though the heat and humidity can take it out of you so the stop to have the icy honey lemon drink was great !! Leo was very gracious to stay back and give us directions on where to go and try next . I enjoyed this .

  • Excellent informative tour
