I ran out of time at the village and did not eat lunch. I wish spent less time at the geo park and more at the village.

Very good small group tour with the fantastic James. Had a great day seeing the sights of Northern Taiwan. James seemed to be one step ahead of the bigger tours the whole day which gave us a good look at places before they got too busy

We had an amazing experience on the Yehliu, Jiufen & Pingxi Day Tour, thanks to our incredible tour guide, Kia. From the start, Kia was warm, professional, and exceptionally knowledgeable. She shared fascinating stories about each location, made sure we were comfortable throughout the day, and even helped us take great photos at key spots. Her pacing was perfect—never rushed, yet we covered everything without feeling tired.
