A Wonderful Cultural Experience - Violet provided an excellent tour at the Huaxi Night Market, the oldest with the most history in the city. She provided excellent background and a historical perspective of the market itself as well as the food we ate. It was a wonderful Taiwanese cultural experience.

Absolutely great tour with our beautiful guide Chester - So enjoyed the tour with Chester, great guide, spoke so clearly, very informative and funny. The food tastings were so varied and tasty, absolutely impossible for a tourist to find safely. I read very negative comments (from another reviewer with just ONE contribution on tripadvisor 🤔🤔🤔) that she hated almost everything but especially the visit to 7-11, this part of the tour was so unexpected but very interesting, as I have been into dozens of 7-11’s around the world but to be pointed out special tasty delights by a guide was invaluable. I bought the recommended chocolates and they were absolutely delicious. Readers please take note, I generally ignore extremely good or bad reviews from members who only have written ONE looks very suspicious. To conclude this food tour is really good with great foods, superb guide Chester, plus clear instructions on line where to meet before starting. Thank you so much.

If you’re in Taipei , you should do a night market fruit tour - The location was excellent. Tour guide was good. It was hard to understand if this was truly traditional, or simply a low budget tour. We sat down at two small restaurants and the tour guy brought food from surrounding vendors to the table. It was all very interesting, and some of the dishes were very good. The walking was not much at all.

Visit Taipei's Oldest--and Sketchiest--Night Market - I'm not sure whether the website indicated the night market to be visited was the notorious Huaxi. If I'd known, I wouldn't have signed up. Besides spending two hours in this depressing place, the food choices were questionable, particularly the two kinds of stinky tofu (one is sufficient) and blood cakes. The concept of the "Free tour of a convenience store" as an extra added attraction is an insulting head scratcher. The guide tells you to go into the store and you reconvene outside a few moments later. Is a tour of a 7 Eleven really necessary anyway? The only positive was spending a couple of hours with a lovely group of fellow travelers. My recommendation is to pay a little more money and take a quality food tour offered by any another company. If you do decide to try this tour, a word of caution. Eat before you go because you may well leave this tour hungry. Caveat emptor!
