Pingtung

The tour guide was very professional, and the itinerary was perfect for exploring scenic spots. The tour bus driver was also very responsible, ensuring passengers got on and off at the closest possible points without taking long detours! The tour was also very punctual! The most special parts of the trip were Sand Island and Longpan Park, but Longpan might be more special for stargazing at night; during the day, it's all about the sea! The Pingtung Aquarium, which I visited sixteen years ago, hasn't changed much since then, so I didn't have high expectations. It might be more suitable for younger children, though it would be more novel for first-timers! Aquarium tickets cost $420 per person, but it's cheaper to buy them online through KKDAY! The tour guide also offered to help with ticket purchases! The Eluanbi Lighthouse ticket was $70, and it was my first time there, so I bought a fridge magnet with the symbol of Eluanbi on it! There's a convenience store nearby that you should check out. The owner is very hospitable! The store is filled with seashells, wind chimes, and fridge magnets—perfect souvenirs for friends! Then I chose a Chinese-speaking tour guide, but the whole bus of about 40 people were from Hong Kong and other foreign countries, and the guide spoke English the whole time. There were very few Taiwanese people! Haha 😂 I treated it as practice for my English listening skills!

The scenery is beautiful, the journey is relaxing, and the diverse geological features make it suitable for travelers of all ages.

Picking up tickets at the pier once gives you a round-trip ticket, which is very convenient. The car rental company is very close to the pier, and the rental process is quick. The only downside is that you have to leave your driver's license with the rental company. Buying this package on KKday is much cheaper than the original price.

Overall, this Kenting day trip was a great experience. The itinerary was plentiful yet not too rushed, allowing us to visit several classic attractions in one day at a comfortable pace. The scenery at Sail Rock, Eluanbi Park, and Longpan Park was absolutely stunning, with expansive ocean views that made for beautiful photos – perfect for those who love nature and photography. Hengchun Old Street also had a lot of local character, offering a great opportunity to stroll and eat. A special shout-out to our guide, Wei Ge! He was fantastic! He was incredibly enthusiastic and responsible, sharing lots of local information and thoughtfully reminding us of meeting times and important details, making the entire trip easy and worry-free. In short, this kind of shared day tour is incredibly convenient for those who don't want to plan their own transportation. It saves time and effort while still allowing you to see the main attractions, offering excellent value for money. Highly recommended! 🌊☀️
