Great Tour - Megan was a great tour guide. She is very knowledgeable and answered all our questions well. She was particularly helpful detailing vegetarian food options at a market.

Recommend - Laid back tour guide that tailored to our needs. I would recommend him to others for a general sense of Taipei (which is what I was looking for) however I would look elsewhere for the nitty gritty detail.

Night Food Market Tour With Alice - Alice took us off track to the electronics shopping malls by special request. We then went to the night food market. She explained the foods to us. We tried some classics like stinky tofu, oyster omelette and pork bun. Nothing was too much trouble. Alice was very generous and could not do more to make our food sampling memorable. We popped into a local temple and she explained to tradition. We also managed a sneaky light display on the river front. I would highly recommend Alice as a guide.

Great experience with Yui in Taipei - Yui was my City Unscripted tour guide in Taipei. She was a great listener, asked spot-on questions, and shared heaps of info. She made sure the tour was tailored just for me, which was tops. Yui chatted about the local food, how it's made, and the culture here in Taipei. She really got what I was after and made the tour exactly what I wanted. Yui gave me some bonza ideas for other things to do in Taipei, based on what she knew I was keen on. At the end, she took me to the train station and gave me clear directions to get back to my hotel – no worries there! I had a very good time with Yui, and I'm stoked I chose her as my guide. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch guide in Taipei.

Taipei Quicky - Our guide Kevin was great. We set a fast pace and seen a lot of great sites in a short 4 hours. Kevin worked us on and off the trains to get to a number of important sites. We went in without a plan and Kevin was great at finding out what we wanted to see and getting us there. I highly recommend our guide Kevin and Viator for a quick impromptu exploration of Taipei!

A wonderful overview of Taipei - My guide Charlotte spoke perfect English and had excellent communication skills following my booking to find out my interests and keep me informed about the tour logistics. She met me in the lobby of my hotel on time and had the day planned out. We used the MRT to get to the locations and then walked. I saw the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial, including the changing of the guard and the interesting basement museum and then on to the Bao’An Taoist Temple. We had local snacks along the way and finished the tour at an historical street with all sorts of local products and food. I learned a great deal about Taipei from Charlotte. She is an excellent ambassador for the city.
