Green was a phenomenal tour guide! He catered the itinerary to my needs and showed me some amazing parts of Taipei. A walking tour is the best way to see/feel a city and Green delivered. Hats of to you, sir! Until next time!

Had a great time with my guide. Ben was outstanding and knowledgeable. He tailored the tour to what I wanted to see and made accommodations based on some attractions not being open. Food recos were great...

After meeting Ben and being shown the sights of taipei, I have no doubt what so ever this is the only way to visit new places. No more coaches full of people. The personal guide is the way forward. My daughter and I were met at the cruise terminal by Ben, complete with umbrella as it was raining. We found Ben to be polite, knowledgeable, courteous and a pleasure to spend time with. Nothing was any trouble to Ben, we had a wonderful time together, ate great food, visited many place we would never have found and did it with a man who we could have been friends with for years. All in all a great experience. Thank you city unscripted and a bigger thank you to Ben who made out day in Taipei feel special.

What you’ll do

You’ll join one of our local Taipei hosts to hit the streets and discover for yourself exactly what makes the capital of Taiwan so unique. You couldn’t possibly see all of its must-see sights in just one day, so what we want is that you get an authentic feel for the place.

You might want to tick off some famous sights, like Bao’an Temple, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, and Dihua Street, and let’s not forget that Taipei is all about street food. In fact, so entrenched is this daily ritual into the fabric of life here, that some apartments are built without kitchens - sample some pork belly buns and bubble tea to see why this would make perfect sense!

Taipei plays with a fusion of many flavors, both in its food and heritage - note the imported influences from Japan, Southeast Asia, and even America! Get to know your host and chat with them about what life is like in the capital. The day is waiting, and yours to command.
