  Our guide Allan was attentive, pleasant to communicate with, and managed to show an impressive amount of Taiwan in a very short time. Everything was clear, well organised, and on schedule, with careful attention to details throughout the trip. The itinerary was extremely rich and well balanced. It included Sun Moon Lake, mountain landscapes and forests of Alishan, tea plantations, scenic viewpoints, and a huge, impressive temple. We also visited Taichung Opera House, tried famous local ice cream, and had many opportunities to experience authentic local food along the way. Toward the end of the trip, the wetlands provided a calm and very beautiful contrast to the mountains. Alishan National Scenic Area does involve fairly active walking. There are many staircases and uphill sections, so it’s worth being prepared for a brisk pace during the climbs. Another thing I really appreciated was that Allan took many photos for me during the trip, which made the experience even more enjoyable and left me with great memories to take home. Overall, this tour delivered a very complete and genuine picture of Taiwan — efficiently planned, thoughtfully paced, and highly rewarding.

  It was a very nice easy trip for us. Our tour guy and driver were very tentative to our needs and whole trip was great. We also got a chance to visit the national museum in Chiayi which was awesome. We had great fun.

• Private Sun Moon Lake and Alishan 3 day tour

  I booked a private tour for myself, elderly mom and sister as my mom wanted to visit Alishan and I read how complicated it can be to get there by public transit. Very glad we booked the tour as getting there and Sun Moon lake involves two to three hour car rides and twisty roads. Communication with booking and payment was good and all in English correspondence. We had a nice van picking us up with all our luggage from Taipei and had a few rest stops along the way. Just FYI outside of taipei the toilet system is not modernized so bring your own toilet paper and sanitizers. It was hit or miss on those being available depending where we were. Our tour guide Liya was super friendly and spoke good English. Our driver Adam also handled the luggage and windy roads well but I got a bit of motion sickness in Alishan because of the elevation climb. We stayed in 5 star hotels. The Lalu in sun moon was great. The nice prince hotel after alishan was ok but I'm sure for the area it's considered the best. There are no sidewalks in Chiayi so we ate nearby at the mall next door for dinner. The tour itself was well organized and paced in terms of spending enough time at all the highlights and not feeling rushed at all by the guide. Alishan felt like walking in a fairy tale forest with the lush greenery and tall trees and fog. I've traveled a lot though and have seen plenty of spectacular landscapes like Banff, Patagonia, Iceland and norway. So for me this was a nice side trip but not as beautiful as other places I've been. Overall we had a good time w the tour and felt it was worth what we paid given the logistics and comfort to get around. In alishan I can't imagine if we went on our own w luggage given how hilly and how the locals don't speak much English (I'm Chinese american) we also really enjoyed the national museum in the south which was the last stop on the trip. Much better than the north one in terms of modern and having English translations. So if you're looking for an easy and comfortable private tour to sun moon and alishan and the national palace south museum yes I recommend this tour! We paid cash tip at the end (they give guidance) and felt it was a nice change from taipei. Everything went on schedule. However there are hotels in taipei where you can leave luggage for a few days if you plan to return to it after. We didn't know this but it was OK.

  Recently, I went on an amazing trip. Thanks to my guide, Mr. Golden Mao, and my driver, Mr. Huang, the journey became truly special. First, Mr. Golden Mao was incredibly knowledgeable and guided me to places rich in history and culture. His explanations were clear and fascinating. He kindly answered all my questions and satisfied my curiosity. His bright and warm personality doubled the enjoyment of the trip. Mr. Huang, the driver, was also a wonderful professional. Even on long journeys, he safely transported me to my destinations, and his driving skills were truly impressive. The interior of the car was always comfortable, thanks to his attentive care. Sun Moon Lake and Alishan were, of course, marvelous, but the highlight of the trip was being treated to various teas at a local tea farm and being able to purchase expensive teas at reasonable prices. All of these became unforgettable memories. Overall, this trip far exceeded my expectations. I am grateful for the teamwork of Mr. Golden Mao and Mr. Huang. Thanks to them, this journey became one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. I highly recommend this trip to everyone.

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Great Guide and Driver_ Poor Hotel and Price Point

  Our guide, Daniel, was outstanding, as was our driver, Mr. Wang. The itinerary was perfect for us. The sequencing was quite good and I am glad we booked this tour. The major drawback was the second hotel, which was a 2 star to perhaps a 3 star hotel masquerading as a 5 star hotel. The hotel we stayed at in Jiayi was nowhere near a proper 5 star hotel, in terms of service, interior design, furnishings, bathroom amenities, breakfast service or anything else. In fact, the hotel was overrun while we were there by a large group of junior high school or high school students, which compromised the whole experience. We were expecting something much more mature and much more sophisticated. So, we were extremely unhappy with the second hotel, which ultimately made the whole tour experience feel somewhat compromised and very, very overpriced for what it was. Having said that though, both our driver and our guide were top caliber and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them again. Given the disappointment and dissatisfaction we felt with the second hotel, I would be reluctant to recommend this tour at this price point. It is worth noting that we paid a two tier supplemental premium to stay at five star hotels.

  Everyone across three generations had a great time on the tour. Our guide, Jessie, and our driver did an amazing job. Jessie was always looking for ways to enhance the experience and was able to customize the trip to fit our extended family. We had some extra time on the last day and they were able to accommodate some special requests which made the trip extra special. The sites were amazing and the accommodations were great. We also really enjoyed the local cuisine along the way. Jessie and our driver went above and beyond!

  Even though we encountered some rainy conditions but our tour guide, James, made it a very pleasant experience! He went out of his way by making a dinner reservation for us at a local authentic restaurant for us to celebrate our friend’s birthday and even arranged to have a birthday cake from 85• for the occasion! Thank you, James!

  

• A wonderful tour in Taiwan

  On our long overdue family holiday to Taiwan we wanted to visit two picturesque areas on the western side of the country. We booked a three day private tour by Edison Tours and were delighted by our holiday. Sun Moon Lake and Alishan were even more stunning than we hoped - such a beautiful part of the country. We were looked after by Albert, our guide and Mr Wu, our driver. Albert gave us plenty of information on the culture and history of each area and heaps of suggestions on other places to visit while we were in Taiwan. His knowledge and passion added another level to our experience. Albert was sensitive to our needs and adapted our tour to suit. Mr Wu was very competent in negotiating the traffic, highways and mountainous roads, so we relaxed and enjoyed our travels. We would recommend taking this tour to see such beautiful places and in such a relaxing and enjoyable way.

  The tour was one of our best family vacations. The tour guide was good and the driver was amazing with excellent skills making our trip very relax and we enjoy the 3 days 2 nights trip very much. We travelled by the tour bus passing through mountain ranges and valleys with beautiful scenery. We were pleasantly surprised by the vineyard with so much local culture at Puli before visiting its night market and enjoyed some delicious local tribal delicacies. Then we had great experience walking and hiking through forest in both Sun Moon Lake and Alishan while stopping by at some of the interesting cultural spots such as Wen Wu temple, Ci En Pagoda, Sun Moon Lake Visitor Center. The Fleur de Chine Hotel facing the Sun Moon Lake was five star where we spend a wonderful night after enjoying the Christmas Eve dinner in the hotel. We were very happy to visit the Southern branch of Taiwan National Museum prior to the end of the trip. Indeed, it was a worth while trip.
