This was a last minute decision on my part & I’m glad I did it. I was in Taipei for work & only had a few hours to spare before I flew out. I was matched with a lovely local girl called Charlotte. I loved how the walk was tailored to my interests. Everywhere she took me it was things I was interested in. Charlotte is a really friendly personable girl, so easy to ask her questions & have a great conversation with her, I really appreciated her local knowledge but also her bright bubbly personality. Such a great way to see a city being guided by a local, I thoroughly recommend it!

David was very friendly and explained everything in detail about the culture and the city. He went out of the way to make me and my wife see hidden gems which was not in the walking tour. Overall it was fun and we are glad we took this tour!

My tour guide Alice was amazing in organizing everything we could do in three hours, and she was also cognizant of me getting to the airport for my flight. I saw historic sights, ate amazing breakfast and lunch. She was such a kind and informative guide! I truly enjoyed my experience my last day in Taipei.

Alice was very communicative first the start regarding what my interest could be and how she would be planning the time we had together. She did everything in her ability to make this tour include everything that I wanted to see and eat! She was amazing and made my last day in Taipei really fun and amazing!

Quick little tour with good insight on government, history, food, culture and the sights downtown. Need to be fit enough to walk the adventure and ride the metro.
