We had the same driver, James, as the day before. As usual he took us to some great places for coastal walks and photographs and was the same enthusiastic, energetic guy. When he learnt of my interest in temples he took me to a few of those too. And brought my reading glasses back to the hotel when I forgot them in the car. Overall a great driver and great service.
Many attractions in Hualien are far from the city center, making chartered car tours ideal for tourists who don't drive themselves. Our driver, Mr. Weng, contacted us in advance to discuss the itinerary. He picked us up at the hotel at the agreed time on the day of the tour. The entire drive was very smooth and safe, and he also reminded us of things to be aware of at the attractions. Our visits to several attractions—Songyuan Villa, General's Mansion, the fairytale-style Starbucks in the A2 Waterfront area, Liyu Lake, and Yunshanshui Dream Lake—went very smoothly. Only the Blue Tears Lasoë Ecological Park was inaccessible due to damage caused by the Guangfu landslide dam.
Showing the QR code to the counter staff allowed for quick entry. The supplies and equipment were all quite new, and much cheaper than buying them on-site.
