Hi, I'm Alice from Taiwan. I have been living in Taipei for more than 25 years. I'm happy to share this fantastic place and can cater my tour for anyone based on their interests, whether it's culture, exotic nature walks/hikes, foodie explorations of all kinds, etc. As a local native here, I am very familiar with Taipei and many other places. As a local host, I will make comfortable arrangements to meet your schedule, and help you find easy transportation that makes your trip as convenient as possible! With the amazing diversity here, it's possible to enjoy a wide range of activities, such as soaking in hot springs in Beitou, Wulai or Jinshan, experiencing trying on traditional Chinese clothing in Jiufen, going monkey watching in Kaohsiung city, or riding a scooter through Taiwan’s old streets. I will customize a unique journey for your cruise into all of the historic and beautiful areas in Taiwan, accompanied with bubble tea and desserts. I myself am an avid cyclist, I have taken a few trips cycling around different areas in Taiwan, so if you also like biking I would definitely be a great partner and tour guide for you in Taiwan.

My reviews

Alice took us off track to the electronics shopping malls by special request. We then went to the night food market. She explained the foods to us. We tried some classics like stinky tofu, oyster omelette and pork bun. Nothing was too much trouble. Alice was very generous and could not do more to make our food sampling memorable. We popped into a local temple and she explained to tradition. We also managed a sneaky light display on the river front. I would highly recommend Alice as a guide.

Alice was the best guide for a few hours. She took me slll the places I wanted to go and was very adaptable with excellent English. Would reach out to Alice to do another tour 100%

Alice was great! Texted me prior to ensure we did all the things I wanted to do and was waiting for me at the airport. We rode the city bikes and went to night market and could not have asked for a better time.

Alice did a great job! She listened to what we wanted to experience and tailored our time to that. I missed her first email so she did a great job following up with me on WhatsApp to make sure that we connected timely.
