2.00We travel a lot and take a lot of private tours. This was unfortunately probably the worst we've ever taken. Our guide Henry is a super nice person and will be very successful in life - but touring with him is not ideal. When he speaks - he speaks only to one person - whoever is near him. He doesn't include everyone. Or try to find out more about you/ what you like. He doesn't involve the entire family. And there isn't the charisma that most great tour guides have. He also took us to a transpiration museum he himself had never been to. I've never been on tour where the person giving the tour isn't super knowledgeable about our destination. His outline of the schedule also didn't make a lot of sense. Meeting at one metro line just to transfer to another one? We contacted him to simply suggest meeting at 1st location rather than wasting time on the metro. We also ended up altering the plan he laid out and cutting the tour short. I hate leaving anything but glowing reviews. And I rarely do. But this tour operator should have more training and understanding of a guide's strength. I do not recommend this tour.

5.00Laid back tour guide that tailored to our needs. I would recommend him to others for a general sense of Taipei (which is what I was looking for) however I would look elsewhere for the nitty gritty detail.

5.00Our guide Kevin was great. We set a fast pace and seen a lot of great sites in a short 4 hours. Kevin worked us on and off the trains to get to a number of important sites. We went in without a plan and Kevin was great at finding out what we wanted to see and getting us there. I highly recommend our guide Kevin and Viator for a quick impromptu exploration of Taipei!
