Must do tour in Taipei! - Wonderful guide! Tour was perfect as all stops were excellent. We saw everything we wanted to see plus got some interesting information. Good timing for each location and never felt rushed. The vehicle was new and comfortable. Felt like a family member showing us the areas. Very happy with our booking of this tour.

Great private tour - Fun tour, saw everything we wanted and avoided the crowds. Comfortable ride plus umbrellas. Had as much time as we wanted at each spot, good explanation of each spot plus free time to roam around.

Great experience! - We had an amazing tour with Mr Berry as our driver and guide. Everything went smoothly and we had a memorable day thanks to Mr Berry’s great driving and expertise. We really appreciate how he provided history and context to each place we visited as well as tips for the best places to shop and have lunch. Also he is a great driver and we felt extremely safe with him at the wheel. It totally pays to have a private car as you can customize every detail based on your preferences. I wholly recommend this company!

Amazing experience with Phyllis's private tour! (Family travel with babies and grandparents) - Wonderful experience with Phyllis. We chartered 3 vans for 10 days (Taipei - Guguan - Taichung - Taipei) along with airport transfer to and from the airport. Phyllis was super super nice. I didn't request for non smoking/no cigarette smells driver but since I told her we will be traveling with 3 babies, she carefully selected the other drivers. She organized our meals too, and she catered to all of our needs. She helped us with the lost luggage in the airport as well as retrieving forgotten passport from our last hotel. She is AMAZING!!!! She really made our trip so relaxing and easy despite traveling with lots of babies. Thank you Phyllis, we will definitely contact you the next time we travel there. Thank you for Debbie and Paddy for being so attentive and nice too.

FULL Day of Sightseeing Splendor!! - What an amazing day!!! We saw SO much, and it was all 🤩🤩⭐️⭐️🌟🌟! We started at Yehliu Geopark, went to Shifen Waterfall, painted and released lanterns at Shifen Old Street, and had tea with the most breathtaking views at Jiufen Old Street. Everywhere we went was just amazing. Debbie was a great guide. While I’m not sure I’d label this a “guided tour,” she did make sure we were comfortable at each location, pointed us towards the highlights, took loads of pics, and helped us with ordering. If you are looking for someone who will walk everywhere with you and give you more of a historical, detailed tour, you probably want to request that when you book. We absolutely LOVED the day we had, and I highly recommend this tour!!!

Very Disappointed! - This was false and deceptive advertising. The van was not a Mercedes, very old with body damage from many accidents and repaired very poorly. It was dirty and the driver barely spoke any English. No umbrellas were provided as advertised ( we brought our own thank goodness) and he handed us 3 raincoats where 2 were for child size and we are 3 adults. He handed us $24 USD and said this was from the company because the van is not luxury. Hardly compensation for a $307 price we paid for what was falsely advertised.
