Great Tour; Highly Recommend. - Fantastic bike tour and experience. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable, funny, and helped make a good experience. We departed a bit late after waiting for another guest, so instead of having breakfast, we got dumplings halfway through the tour, which were delicious. The tour was a great way to see most of the top sites of the city, and we often stopped for a quick explanation, or stopped, locked our bikes, and walked around. The weather was quite warm, but we were given plenty of water and chances to refill our water bottles. While the bike was not electric, it was still very light and easy to use. There were no hills or difficult rides. The streets were a bit busy but not too difficult to navigate at all.

An excellent introduction to Taipei - An very easy, enjoyable, safe and informative way to be introduced to Taipei. Mike took us around central and westerns Taipei where we had lots of stops, including a great local breakfast. He was nice and relaxed, making it all very pleasant experience. It was so nice not to be walking or in and out of a car/van. Definitely recommend.

A fabulous 4 hour hour cycling tour in Taipei not to be missed !!! - Fabulous bike tour, we thoroughly recommend you do this as soon as you arrive in Taipei. Jonnie was a brilliant guide, very knowledgeable, informative and a great tour guide. We would never have been able to find, let alone see, everything we did in 4 hours. Riding in the traffic was hilarious , so much fun as a group, and it was also very safe. Unlimited water and beautiful dumplings for brunch were an added bonus and Jonnie went above and beyond, helping us to make a dinner reservation and suggestions for our quick trip. Loved our 48 hours in Taipei and have recommended my son and his partner to book this tour in January when they stop over. Thank you so much . Kate and Paul

Amazing! - I would recommend doing this on the first day of your trip to really get a first feel for Taipei. Our tour guide Mike was very knowledgeable on the culture of Taiwan and was very informative. He also gave us very good recommendations.
The trip was also very easy and not hard at all. As a person who doesn’t ride bikes very often I was a bit apreehensive, but it was a very easy ride.
Hope you enjoy!
