Juifen

I considered chartering a taxi, but ultimately chose this sightseeing tour because the price was attractive. This was the evening session. [Good points] - Since the meeting time is in the afternoon, I didn't have to wake up late. - I didn't need to plan the tour schedule myself. - The tour guide explained the route and recommended places. - The tour bus was spacious with high ceilings, so it didn't feel cramped. [Unexpected points] - The sightseeing spots were crowded, so the free time was shorter than expected (especially Yehliu and Shifen). - When other tour members were late for the meeting time, it caused inconvenience due to the waiting time. - There are many similar buses, so be careful not to get on the wrong one. This tour is suitable for those who want to visit many famous landmarks rather than spending time sightseeing in one place. I used this tour with my family, who were visiting Taipei for the first time, and we were very satisfied. Thank you!

I had a reservation for 7:30 PM, but due to the large crowd, I arrived a little after 7:00 PM. Even so, the staff immediately attended to me, and I was able to enjoy a fantastic view from the balcony seating on the third floor. The tea experience was easy to understand because the staff spoke Japanese, and I thoroughly enjoyed the tea and sweets. Having made a reservation in advance meant I only had to show the voucher and didn't have to pay anything afterward, which was incredibly helpful. Thank you very much.

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.

After getting tired from walking in the rain, it was reassuring and a great deal to be able to sit down reliably on time. The driver was kind and polite, and the interior of the bus was very clean. Compared to driving in Japan, the speed was a bit too high, which was a little scary.

Two women in their 20s visited. We showed them a copy of our reservation and they showed us to our table right away. There were many staff members who could speak Japanese, so we felt at ease. We were able to relax in a seat with a view of the outside. The sweets weren't too strong in flavor, so I think anyone would enjoy them. It was raining heavily and it was around 2 PM on a weekday, so it was possible to use the restaurant without a reservation and there were several menu options to choose from, but I think it's safer and easier to understand if you have a reservation. The toilets are Japanese style, but they are much cleaner than the toilets near the entrance to Jiufen, so you should use them here.
