Kavalan is worth the visit - Caleb was a great tour guide of the area and was easy to chat with. Kavalan is worth visiting if you enjoy good whiskey.

Amazing Tour Guide Experience✨ - I recently went on a whiskey tour with Vincent Lee as our guide, and he was fantastic! Out of all the tours I've been on, Vincent was the best by far. He was super friendly, very knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure everyone had a great time. The tour itself was really fun and exciting, thanks to his enthusiasm and expertise. Highly recommend!

Great Private Tour of Yilan - Really enjoyed the private tour. Got to see a different side of Taiwan, away from the big cities. The National Center for Traditional Arts was quite large and had many shops and exhibits. The whisky Distillery was a must visit as someone who drinks and collects whisky. They had a cafe with great lunch and coffee, and the whisky tasting menu had a lot of options. Also visited the beach, which was a nice way to end the tour. Most importantly, Steven was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Would highly recommend allocating a day for this tour, especially for anyone only staying in Taipei or other big cities during their trip.

Whiskey distillery is only part of a great day trip! - Our driver/guide Hicks Wang did an excelent job during the entire tour. From the drive through Taiwan's longest tunnel, at the distillery, the Traditional Arts Folk Park, the Fishermen's Harbor, Waiao beach and the Mr. Brown Coffee at the top of the mountain, he provided a fountain of information and background on each place. It was a great last full day in Taiwan and highly recomended. The five different Kavalan whiskies we tasted were pretty good, too!

A Great Introduction into Northern Taiwan - Our tour with Steven Huang was a great kickoff to experience Taiwan. Here is the itinerary he provided to us the day prior to departing: 10:00 Hotel pick-up 11:20-13:00 King Car Kavalan Distillery 13:30-15:30 National Center for Traditional Arts 16:10-16:50 Wushih Harbor 17:10-17:50 Mr. Brown Café - 1st Store 17:50-19:00 Back to hotel As you can see it was so much more than just the Kavalan Distillery Tour. We modified the tour a bit but still covered all of the attractions listed above. Steven was easy to talk with and provided a comfortable and enjoyable ride in between stops. He was a great photographer and provided us ample time to at each destination.
