5.00We had an amazing tour with Garen! She introduced us to lots of great spots and we got to eat a bunch of delicious items. We definitely ended the tour with extremely full bellies and also gained a lot of cultural knowledge! We liked that she tailored the spots to what we wanted and took feedback along the way. It was really fun and we'd recommend the tour to anyone!
Would highly recommend!!

5.00We had the best time with Kate our guide! We booked the tasting for later in the day so we ended up in a night market and it was fantastic! We were able to see all kinds of traditional food and the history behind it but we also got to try some new trendy night food. We also got to see some temples and saw the history of Taipei. Kate made us feel so welcomed and she just loves her city. She made sure to show us amazing stands that were DELICIOUS. I’m also writing this the next day and can confirm the food is all safe and did not give my husband and I an upset stomach.
Efficient and fun tour!!

5.00Great tour with Garen. She is multilingual and easy to understand. Great personality and really enjoyed the history and the food discussions. She made my mum really comfortable and the food selections are interesting even for someone who is familiar with Asian food. It's clear that she respected the local vendors and they are willing to work with her.
Great food tour

5.00Our guide was very informative, personal, punctual, patient , encouraging and great to first timers in Taiwan. We were a few minutes late, but she waited for us and she politely introduced herself and we went on to start our tour. We experienced different kinds of foods, from noodles, rice, dumplings, pancakes, fruit, tea and Boba, pineapple cakes, etc. Great job as a food tour guide.
An excellent foodie tour!

5.00Sonia is an excellent foodie guide! She walked us to several local spots to try local specialties like scallion pancakes, dumplings, noodle and rice dishes, and dessert specialties, including one of our favorite bubble tea! She shared a lot of information about local culture as well along our walk about! Thanks for a great evening of food and conversation 💕
