Most of the accommodations were great, especially all the staff (the lovely receptionists explained things very clearly, responded quickly, and were very attentive; Mr. Wang, who picked us up, arrived early and was very attentive and helpful, chatting like a tour guide in the train carriage; and Mr. Wu explained every detail in a very humorous way, making us listen very carefully). The accommodations were very convenient, located near the train station with shopping malls and restaurants, though they were a bit old. The biggest regret was not seeing the sunrise because the weather wasn't as expected.
This April trip to Alishan is truly worth recommending! Xiao Jiang is not only a professional tour guide but also a meticulous driver, driving safely and politely, making the journey worry-free. He thoughtfully helped take photos, and his photography skills are superb, ensuring beautiful memories of the trip. Although it was cloudy that day and we couldn't see the sunrise, Xiao Jiang cleverly arranged for us to admire the blooming cherry blossoms and the natural scenery of the forest park, providing clear and vivid explanations that were thoroughly enjoyable. Lunch was also a delicious and authentic local meal. The entire trip was full of surprises and heartwarming moments, making it unforgettable and definitely worth recommending to anyone wanting a more in-depth Alishan experience!
Well informed by the travel agent on 2D1N activities. Both drivers were friendly, introduce the past history and culture around Alishan. The tour guide was knowledgeable whom brought us around Alishan forest to learn more on trees and history for 2.5 hours was good too. The hotel was clean and comfortable.
