Taiwan

This shared tour was great value. Besides the 9-seater Benz, the driver also acted as a tour guide, accompanying us throughout the entire trip, providing commentary, and even finding great angles to take photos for us – the photos turned out beautifully. Luckily, the weather was nice that day. We ate at a famous tin box bento box restaurant along the way and finally rode a miniature train. Because some sections of the road have many curves, it's recommended that those prone to motion sickness take motion sickness medication beforehand.

Ease of booking (KKday's usability) ​Pros: ​The procedure was easy to complete in Japanese, and the purchasing process was smooth. ​I was able to get a good deal at a discounted price (stating the discount rate or specific amount would be more convincing). ​Were there flexible options for seat selection and time changes when booking (if you used this service)? ​Was it easy to enter the required information, such as your passport number? ​Concerns (if any): ​Were there any issues with using the website or app? ​Was it time-consuming or confusing to issue or collect your voucher? ​🎫 Ticket collection and redemption ​Pros: ​It was very easy to redeem your ticket at the station (did you use the counter or the automatic ticket machine?). ​Was it enough to just present your electronic voucher (the booking confirmation you received by email)? ​Was the waiting time for redemption short? ​Concerns (if any): ​It was difficult to find the redemption location, or the counter was crowded, etc. ​Did you experience any language barriers when redeeming your ticket (whether Japanese was available or not)? ​🚅 What was good about your experience riding the Taiwan High Speed ​​Rail? ​The interior of the train was clean and comfortable. ​The seats were spacious, so I didn't feel tired even on long journeys. ​The train ran on time, allowing for a smooth journey. ​I enjoyed the scenery from the train window, and other specific impressions. ​What were your concerns (if any): ​Inconveniences with the onboard services (Wi-Fi, food and drink, etc.). ​Dissatisfaction with the environment, such as the air conditioning being too strong.

Our guide, Moose, is very friendly and takes great care of the passengers. The Alishan tour is really focused on taking photos and enjoying the scenery, but I was happy that he took a lot of them. The scenery is truly beautiful, and the walking distance is less than I expected. There was some traffic on the way there and back, but he still drove us back to the city center quickly. It's a bit cramped for eight people, but it was comfortable and safe. I highly recommend this tour at least once during your trip to Taiwan.

I purchased a set that included a round-trip Airport Express ticket and an EasyCard. The EasyCard is useful for both buses and subways, making it convenient and economical. The card design is also cute. The Airport Express uses a strange coin-shaped IC chip, which feels like a toy. I couldn't figure out how to get through the ticket gate, so I got stuck, but it was fun to use.

This was my first time in Taiwan. Traveling with five girls, I had many concerns, so I researched this highly rated tour beforehand and decided to join it. Since it was such a special occasion, I decided to take the C Tour, which offered a full day of sightseeing. On the day, the five of us shared the ride with another family (maybe locals). The car was not cramped at all and there was little swaying, so it was so comfortable that my friend, who suffers from motion sickness, said she didn't even notice. I actually sat in the middle of the back seat, but it was so spacious and comfortable that I slept soundly throughout the entire trip. Our driver and guide, Mr. Okuma, was very kind and even went out of his way to use a translation app to guide us, even though we were Japanese. He also took lots of beautiful photos with his iPhone, which was very much appreciated. We also added the Amei Teahouse experience, but there was so much tea that we couldn't finish it all while visiting the other shops. The snacks were delicious, and the staff were very kind. While the lantern-releasing event wasn't on the train tracks, I was happy to see it in a more beautiful setting than the tracks. What's more, they even took the time to take photos on both our phones and Okuma's phone...we really appreciate it. If you join the LINE group listed in the contact information beforehand, they will send you a Japanese translation of the guide and add the photos they took to your album, which is very convenient. I think it's a good idea to contact them if you have any questions on the day. It was my first time in Taiwan, so I had a lot of worries, but my friends were really happy and said it was a good idea to join this tour. I would highly recommend this to anyone new to Taiwan!

Sun Moon Lake is breathtakingly beautiful, with the blue sky and azure waters creating a captivating contrast. The road to Cingjing is winding and requires considerable driving skills and patience. The sheep show was a bit hilarious, and the equestrian show was impressive but also dangerous. If we had more time, we could have walked around the grasslands. The cool, high-altitude air was refreshing. Thanks to our guide for making the trip safe and easy. He also took beautiful photos and sent them privately, never in a group. The three cars we drove together throughout the trip were very reassuring. My mother and I were also very satisfied with the itinerary.
