The tour was well organized and Kenny the tour guide was very accommodating of my parents who gets distracted and wanders off to look at various things! The highlights are taking the old railway train, walking around the traditional market and the DIY thunder tea which was delicious and worth the effort.

We had a great day with Kenny our guide and Jason the driver from Edison travel service who had good English and could understand all the information he told us about the Hakka ethnic group in Taiwan. Although, the weather was abit cloudu and rainy it was something that we will put into the great banks of memories as we we learnt alot of new things about Taiwan and grinding our own special Hakka tea! Highly recommended tour for those wanting to learn more and outside the hustle and bustle of Taipei!
