This is one of the few tours that combines Jinshan Old Street and Jiufen. With the professional and humorous explanations of the tour guide and the time management, you can enjoy visiting the key scenic spots and shops at your leisure, saving a lot of time searching online, waiting and transferring. It is a very cost-effective and convenient day trip to Fenglu!
I made a reservation for 17:30 (sunset) on Friday, October 17th. I arrived 15 minutes early, but there was a huge queue! I showed my voucher and was seated right away. What's more, I was seated in a corner seat on the terrace! It was amazing! The staff patiently taught me how to make tea, and I had so many laughs. It was so beautiful watching the lanterns light up as the sun gradually got darker while I was looking out at the ocean at dusk. The tea was delicious, and I was able to relax. I'm so glad I made a reservation!
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!
