Shifen

Our guide, Mr. Hayashi, was a friendly and wonderful person. He was also interesting to talk to, so we weren't bored at all. The itinerary was a bit rushed as we spent little time at each location, but releasing sky lanterns and strolling around Jiufen were very enjoyable and memorable.

Thank you, Ouyangsen driver! 😊 The car was clean and the driving was smooth and comfortable. You were able to accommodate my last-minute requests, and I had a wonderful time. The lantern spot in Shifen was great. I am very satisfied.

The early booking plan was great value for money, costing just over 5000 yen per person and even including the famous tea in Jiufen. Our tour guide, Kaori, was humorous, easy to talk to, and very entertaining. She made reservations for the lanterns, peanut ice cream, and chicken wings in Shifen for us, even though there were about 20 groups in our group, which allowed us to make the most of our time. The hand-drawn map of Jiufen was also very helpful as it highlighted all the key points. At the end, we were even able to get off at the night market if we asked, so it was a truly fulfilling tour!

The weather was bad, so I was able to use the unlimited bus pass, which was a great help. I visited the National Palace Museum, Jiufen, and Shifen. I was also very happy to receive a cute cup as a gift.

The itinerary was excellent, and the tour guide was very friendly, helping us order delicious food, choose sky lanterns, and providing great explanations of the itinerary. Time management was also superb! The only downside was that we had to return to the bus early because the air conditioning wouldn't be turned on earlier if there weren't enough people! Everything else was great 👍! A great choice for a day trip!
