Taichung

I always buy coupons before shopping at Uni-President Department Store; they're accepted at almost every counter, super convenient! 💕💕

It was as comfortable as Japan's Shinkansen bullet train. I was glad I could use it at half price for a one-way trip. Booking was also smooth.

The store was small and a little hard to find, but I was able to find it by asking various people! The YuYu Card didn't have many options, and they were all anime character designs! But it was cheap, so it's totally fine!

The contact information provided the day before was clear, the driver was friendly, and after picking up the luggage, I contacted him by phone. He quickly arrived at the designated pick-up/drop-off point and even helped put the luggage in the trunk. He navigated the route using Google Maps, was a good driver, and the car was comfortable and clean. He was also willing to let me know if I had any special needs. Overall, it was great value for money and highly recommended! 👍🏻

At first, it was a bit choppy and unresponsive, so I contacted their customer service. They taught me how to use it, and after that, watching shows was no problem. I really appreciate their customer service; there's always someone there to help. Highly recommended!

The driver managed the itinerary very well, and we were able to reach the important performance at Cingjing Farm smoothly and see it. Although there was a section of heavy rain on the return highway, with torrential downpours so heavy that we could barely see the car in front! Everyone was exhausted, but the driver quietly and safely drove us to our destination. A big thank you to the driver for his hard work!

I used this service for a round trip from Taipei to Kaohsiung. I used both online booking and ticket counter booking, but I found it more convenient to have my seat reserved at the counter. You can't enter without having your ticket and passport checked by a station attendant, so it might not be suitable for people in a hurry. The included 2-day unlimited Taipei MRT and bus pass, and unlimited Kaohsiung MRT pass were great.

I also participated in a tour in January, so this was my second time. I feel bad about the difficulty of communication on local tours because I don't speak Chinese (and my English is quite shaky), but when I participated in January, I was able to communicate fairly well using a translation app on my phone, so this time I also informed them in advance that I couldn't speak the language before signing up. I usually go alone wherever I can (I've been to Alishan once by Taiwan Tourist Shuttle bus), but tours are definitely more efficient for sightseeing. Our driver this time, Wang Wang, used LINE's translation function to communicate frequently in the group chat, and he also shared a lot of local information during the hike, which made it incredibly enjoyable. Thank you so much for your kindness. The group from Hong Kong who were in the same car were also very cheerful, and we had a wonderful day. Alishan truly has beautiful scenery, and walking there feels like a cleansing experience. It has become a precious memory.

I was really curious about Takami Wetlands. The weather was great, and I'm so glad I went. The guide called out to me at photogenic spots and took lots of pictures for me, which was fantastic! They even drove me back to Taichung Station for the Shinkansen, so it was a really great day trip! For those planning to go, be aware that the toilets in the Takami Wetlands parking lot don't have tissues, so you should bring your own.
