龍山寺の詳しい解説は、とても良かったです。ガイドブックでは分からなかったことをいろいろ教えてもらった。ただし、英語のスピードが速く聞き取れなかったことも、多々あった。まあ、それは自分の問題。司馬遼太郎の「街道をゆく台湾紀行」を読みながら旅したが、ガイドさんの説明の些細なところから、いろいろと歴史を感じた。

Great tour! I’ve been to temples before, but did not know how to walk through them or participate. This tour answered all of my questions and gave us an opportunity to learn about this unique religious experience. Also, you get a glimpse into old Taipei!

Manu was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and a great storyteller. I enjoyed learning about early Taipei, Chinese mythology, and how the locals worship at Longshan Temple. It was very hot and he generously got us samples of iced herbal tea and iced wintermelon tea at a tea stall. Must-do tour your if you're new to Taipei.
