Daphne provided an outstanding tour of Taipei, making my first visit to Taiwan an enriching and memorable experience. Her extensive knowledge of Taipei and Taiwan's culture brought each location to life, and I appreciated her willingness to tailor the tour to my interests. At the delightful tea shops, she patiently allowed extra time for me to explore, taste, and eventually select a beautifully fragrant Taiwanese tea – a challenging choice, given the variety! As a vegetarian, I was especially grateful for her helpful tips on ordering in restaurants and finding vegetarian options at the night market.
Daphne’s tour also revealed some fascinating “hidden secrets” of Taipei, little gems that only a local would know – but you’ll need to take her tour to discover these for yourself! She even took the time to teach me how to navigate the subway, making me feel more comfortable exploring on my own afterward. Her additional recommendations for things to do and see post-tour were much appreciated as well. In short, Daphne was an exceptional guide, and I would highly recommend her tour to anyone visiting Taipei.

Thank you Garen for a great tour. We learnt so much about Taiwan and it’s history. Garen is so knowledgable and really took the time to answer all of our questions. We’re so glad that we did this tour as part of our trip to Taiwan and feel that we would have missed a lot had we not done it.
As well as being a fantastic tour guide, Garen was very friendly and also offered to take lots of photos of us at the various sites we visited. We now know a lot more about Taiwan and also have some great photos from the day! Would recommend!
