What you'll do

You’ll join one of our local Taipei hosts for a take to the streets, or mountains for that matter, of Taipei - your wish is our command!

 

Amidst the hustle and bustle, you’ll fall in love with the flavors, sounds, colors, and inherent spirituality of Taiwan’s capital. It’s like a concentrated hub of intoxicating extremes, and your host can’t wait to share the very best of their home city with you.

Depending on the timing of your experience, you might like to check out the Shilin and Raohe night markets, climb Elephant Mountain for stellar views over the city, shop in trendy Ximending, or get close to nature in Yangmingshan National Park.

It’s all about doing Taipei, your way, remember? Our hosts provide insight, giving your adventures some local authenticity, but you dictate the pace. We’re excited. Are you excited?

Reviews

    It was our fist time and first day in Taiwan, and we got a best experience with a beautiful, kind and extremely nice guide Daphne.everything was easy - meeting point, transportation around and so on. We were surprised how much we could see during the tour. She also gave us recommendations about dining, shopping etc. Thank you, Daphne, we immediately got best impression of Taiwanese people and Taipei!

    Daphne was a great guide - she provided lots of information but also allowed me to linger or to ask further questions depending on my interests.

    I had a last minute trip to Taipei, and needed some help exploring. I booked this tour last minute and was contacted right away to help build my itinerary for the next day. I met with Daphne at Liberty Square and, and she showed me the Chiang Kai Shek memorial where we witnessed the changing of the guards which was a very cool sight to see! We then made our way to various shopping centers and night markets. The food looked very delicious, it was also amazing to see the hustle and bustle of the night market streets. Daphne is extremely knowledgeable about the intricate history of Taipei and I learned a lot during this tour. I highly recommend if you're ever in Taipei!
