Great experience with barbie. She is a wonderful tour guide took us all around central Taipei seeing major monuments and recommending terrific food spots.
Walking tour with Barbie who was a great tour guide. She gave us lots of context throughout and she was super friendly.
We booked this tour in advance and were asked if we could change from am to pm.We were visiting on a cruise ship and had very limited time in Tapei so this wasn't possible.I asked the tour operator a couple of days before arriving if our tour would be going ahead otherwise we could arrange something else.I was assured it would be going ahead as planned.The tour was due to start at 9am and at approx 7.10 am I received a message to say good morning so assumed everything was okay.Then at 8.30 am I received a message to say the tour guide wasn't available.I was so angry as I could have booked something else but not at 30 mins notice;A completely wasted visit to Tapei caused by the tour operators transparency.Dont use this operator.would be my advice,

Lily was an excellent tour guide! She was incredibly friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. She took the time to explain things clearly and helped us learn how to use the metro, which was very helpful. Lily also went out of her way to take photos for us, making sure we captured some great memories from the tour. Her positive attitude and expertise made the whole experience even better. We truly enjoyed our time with her and highly recommend Lily to anyone visiting! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Allow plenty of time to get around the city using train and metro, very cheap way to get around much better than expensive taxis. Lots of places to visit, 101 Tower, Memorial Park and changing of the guard, must sample the bubble tea and friend chicken etc Lots of shops available including all the top brands and some local ones. Our guide was great and explained lots of things about all aspects of Taiwan and the city of Taipei. We would definitely return but with lots more time so as to see all the island and its features 👍
Our guide, Barbie, was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and interesting. We opted for a tea tasting/ceremony which we truly enjoyed- the young Tea Master was perfect. Finished with Moon Cake tasting that we really enjoyed.
Steve was our guide, he was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend Steve and this tour to anyone with a few hours on their hands.
Melanie was a fantastic guide. Very entertaining, straightforward, informative, and helpful to what we wanted to do. We did a morning tour of Taipei. We hit the memorial to the first leader with the changing of Guard and then off to Taiwan 101, where she showed us around. She gave us my suggestions for food and other things to see. She went above and beyond to be helpful. She was a fantastic guide, and I highly recommend her.
