I had very little time in Taipei, and my host understood what I wanted to see, curating my itinerary to fit all the important things.

Green met us at the hotel we were staying at in Taipei. He asked us what we would like to see and tailored the tour accordingly. We used the MRT so that we could see as many sites as possible which included the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, temple and dock. We also walked along streets to get a "feel" of what life was like in Taipei with Green pointing out interesting buildings along the way. Green shared his knowledge of the city with us. We had a very enjoyable experience. Would highly recommend the tour.
