Taichung

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.

The driver was very kind and considerate, giving us many helpful tips that made our journey smoother. We were also able to see the sunrise at Gaomei Wetlands, which we really appreciated. Gaomei Wetlands is very windy, so I recommend bringing a windbreaker. Unfortunately, there was no lavender in the Lavender Forest this season, and there wasn't much else to see, but we spent more time there. Xinshe Flower Sea had more flowers and was more beautiful and photogenic.

Traveling alone, with 3 Japanese wives, 4 people form a group. The tour guide and driver Xiaobin was very good, enthusiastic to help, and helped take pictures, and set the right time to each attraction. It takes 1.5-2 hours to drive from Taipei to Taichung, departing at 10:30 am, leaving from Gaomei at 6 pm and returning to Taipei at 8 pm. Go to Rainbow Family Village and Iron Man will help you take some funny photos! Another key point is the high beauty wetland, be sure to take off your shoes into the water, soft wetland, warm water temperature, very comfortable! It’s so beautiful to take pictures of the sunset! No matter how long you sit in the car, you can get it back!

The tour guide was very friendly and helped us take beautiful photos and videos. The shuttle service was very convenient and the stay time was sufficient. The Gaomei Wetland is very beautiful and worth a visit.

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.
