Great night - It was a great night. Our Guide May Ei is super fun, and helped us in everything. Including in the negotiation of the Shopping. It took us to a pretty cool restaurant, and was ready to take us to others, but we couldn't eat any more. The only thing I think can improve is the location of the meeting point. It was a little confusing for us. Made everything right at the end

Overloading the senses at Shilin Night Market - Apart from having a wonderful sense of humour and a sunny disposition. Ruby demonstrated a talent for seeking out the best food stalls and the tastiest local dishes. Along the way she related interesting facts about the culture and history of Taiwan and Taipei and there was even a temple visit. What an 5evening!

Great experience with Carol - Carol was a fantastic guide. We had a great time in the night market, the food explanations were really helpful and informative (and tasty) and the tour of the temple was wonderful. Thank you Carol.

A great tour of Shilin market! - Joseph did a fabulous job walking us through Shilin Market. We learned about various foods and Taiwanese cuisine more generally. We also talked about Taiwan’s history and culture. Joseph was energetic, informative, and very considerate. He also shared recommendations for other places to eat in taipei and must-see sights during our trip. We were one vegetarian and one meat eater and Joseph ensured we both had delicious bites to eat! Highly recommend.

Wonder Evening in Taipei - We did this tour the night of arriving in Taipei and it was the perfect way to spend our evening. We were quite tired from our flight but May Ei was such a delight from the moment we met at the station. Her upbeat personality gave us energy and we had such a fun evening with her. She took us to some really great spots and we saw other parts of the night market like the games and shopping. It was a really well rounded experience and she wasn’t pushy about anything and was always checking in to see if we wanted to eat or do anything else. We learned so much about Taiwan and had a great time. Highly recommend this tour specifically with May!

Into to Taipei Street Food - Joseph was an extremely knowledgeable and friendly guide. He shared lots of information about the area and its history. He was able to recommend food tailored to what I wanted to eat, both no meat but also not too much of any one thing. Only negative was I couldn’t try more as I was full. However, it was a great intro to things I might like to try later in trip. Joseph also shared some recommendations for other places to visit and eat in other places. Great way as a single traveler to experience the night market for the first time.

Fantastic Shilin Night Market Tour with Kelly! - We had an amazing time exploring Shilin Night Market with our guide, Kelly. She introduced us to a variety of unique street foods that we wouldn’t have tried on our own, including stinky tofu, which turned out to be a highlight! Kelly’s passion for Taiwanese culture made the tour both fun and educational. If you want an authentic and delicious experience at Shilin, I highly recommend this tour with Kelly!
