Important points of interest in Taipei - This tour features places that should not be missed. In particular the CSK memorial was an amazing place. Also worth mentioning that our guide Tony was very patient with our tour group.

Taipei in a Teacup - Following a N Taiwan tour, we decided to join the Taipei City tour the following day. Hotel collection was spot on time and we had a mini-city tour to collect other folks. Our guide Yuki, was knowledgeable, entertaining and a great personality for an introduction to another culture. Our driver, Vincent, expertly navigated the warren of streets around the city. We visited a diverse collection of temples, monuments, museums, markets and shopping malls. Yuki respectfully explained the cultures at the sensitive shrines and museums and gave us lots of time to wander around. We feel like we are experts on Taipei and had a great day out

Taipei in a day! - James and the driver were very friendly and knowledgeable about Taipei. James would explain the history about each place we went to visit. When we asked questions they were able to provide information very quickly. James showed us where to shop in the market and gave us many possible options of where to have lunch. Our traditional Chinese lunch was delicious. They also went out of their way to help me exchange some US dollars to Taiwan dollars. The tour was very well planned but James also asked us what we would like to see.

The best half day tour to see the National Palace Museum, along with other points of interests - We couldn't have asked for a better guide during our tour! Her name was Molly and she was well versed in the history of each of our locations. She spoke perfect English as well as gave us good tips on where to stand for the best views. The driver was very punctual and between Molly and the driver, they coordinated drop-offs and pick-ups perfectly. I would highly recommend this half-day tour!

Taipei Palace Museum and Chiang Kai Shek Memorial - The museum is the main reason for this tour. Sharon showed great knowledge and enthusiasm showing the Chinese artifacts of centuries and millennia past. The Palace hotel is grand and shows the beautiful Chinese architecture. The Chiang Kai Shek Memorial is open to everyone and you can visit anytime, however, Sharon timed it to the changing of the guards, which added an extra layer of memories.
