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.
It's convenient to reserve your seat online. Just show it to the driver when you arrive and you're on the bus. The location is also easy to find, just a short walk from Hsinchu Train Station, though you'll need to carry a few stairs with luggage. The bus seats are very comfortable and sleep-inducing, and the ride to Taoyuan International Airport takes just an hour.
This was my first time renting a car through kkday. Overall, the service was very efficient and excellent. From the instant responses from kkday customer service (usually within a day) to the follow-up contact from the rental company, it was easy to adjust and manage my itinerary. I'll definitely book a car through this platform again. The only caveat is that the platform only displays the rental amount, without specifically mentioning the potential mileage and the cost of purchasing zero-deductible insurance. It also doesn't clearly explain the billing methods for late returns or returning the car to a different location, making it easy to miscalculate your budget. During the holiday, I rented a car for 24 hours. The platform listed the rental price as NT$1,750, but I actually had to add NT$267 in ETC tolls, NT$1,885 in mileage fees, and NT$450 in zero-deductible insurance. For a total of 29 hours, the cost was NT$4,352. While it's still not cheap, the overall service was excellent, and the car was in excellent condition. The above information is for your consideration before booking a car.
