An amazing day in Keelung! - Our guide, Leo, was awesome! He picked us up where we were getting off of the ship and took us all over Keelung and the surrounding countryside! He was a wealth of information and informed us about all of the history of Taiwan. Visiting a few temples and street markets as well as a couple of waterfalls was an amazing experience! The topper of the day was the temple at the top of the mountain! Thank you, Leo!!

We visited Geo Park, Shifen, lantern & waterfall & Juifen. Chia managed the time to see all points of interests - On 09/09/2024, we met with CHIAI JUNG our tour guide at Keelung Cruise Terminal. We were 6 persons in our group Chia was an exception guide. He spoke excellent English & we conversed with him on many subjects during our 8 hour tour. He was a very good driver & he went over & above to make sure we were cared for. He had a happy & jovial disposition which we all loved. His Knowledge of Taiwan was exceptional. The day was very hot & humid & he made sure we were hydrated & made time for rest breaks. We would have no issue recommending Chia Jung to any other persons. Well done Chia Jung

Terrific full day tour. - The market street, the larger waterfall, and sending the sky lantern up with our prayers. It would have been a little smoother if Charky, our guide, were not also the driver, but he made it work. So nice to have the flexibility of spending a little more or a little less time at each stop. Even with the rain, it was awesome.

Wonderful experience and great guide. - Our guide was excellent! He kept a good pace for us, customized our experience, and helped us avoid crowds while catching some really high points. The tour kept getting better. The waterfall was small, but nice. It did involve quite a bit of stair walking. The sky lanterns were a nice experience, and the town was quirky with good street food. Jiufen was really fun. Interesting shopping district and great views. The tea house was amazing. The temples in the area were spectacular.
