Reviews of Our Taipei Experiences

Not only did we explore a night market, but we visited a couple of Taoist temples and explained the rituals and belief systems associated with them. Also, she was flexible about the itinerary; she did not make me repeat a market I had already seen.

Our night market food tour with Green was a highlight of our trip to Taipei! He was accommodating of our wishes, and extremely knowledgeable. He gave us tremendous insights into Taiwanese culture. A tour like this would not have been possible on our own. We did not see another Western tourist during the entire evening! The food was interesting, and delicious. Highly recommended!

Green was a knowledgeable foodie and led us to the best stalls for delicious local food. We learned about the culture while enjoying savory and sweet treats. He went out of his way to find food we liked.

Green was a good tour guide. We wanted more of a food tour, but were happy to visit Ximen district which is very dynamic and exciting.

We loved the food tour at the night markets. We visited two markets - one smaller and one larger. It was a great way to get a sense of the culture and taste amazing food. Our guide Charlotte was great - she took us to the best food stalls, provided background on the places and food, and made the tour fun and relaxed. She was flexible to accommodate our interests and very generous with her time. We definitely recommend this tour!
