The staff will also give you advance reminders, which is very thoughtful; with Badouzi bicycles, you don't have to worry about sun exposure or rain, making for a safe and unique experience.
When I arrived at the venue, the line to purchase tickets was quite long, so I quickly purchased one from KKday while waiting in line to enter. I asked the ticket gate attendant, who instructed me to use the ticket machine in front of the gate. I held the QR code on my smartphone up to the machine, then used the paper QR code issued to enter through the gate. The Maokong Gondola was longer than I expected, and I was able to fully enjoy the magnificent mountain views below and the view of Taipei city in the distance. The ride was long, but it was a very satisfying experience.
I wanted to go to Yehliu, so I requested a charter. The person in charge was very nice, and it was a fun day. Along the way, they stopped the car to show me beautiful scenery and take photos for me. We also went to Jiufen, where we enjoyed ourselves. After returning to Taipei, they also stopped at Sunny Hills, which is hard to get to. The 8 hours just flew by. The charter allowed us to go to the places we wanted, and we were able to relax with our family without worrying about time. The tapioca milk they treated us to was also delicious. I would definitely request their services again on my next trip to Taipei.
Tour guide Peggy is very nice, beautiful mountains and a good tour. Peggy would show us how to pose for pictures and she also made them into slide show. I recommend this day tour.
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.
Our family traveled from Kaohsiung to Taoyuan Airport to catch our flight. Instead of taking the High Speed Rail, we opted for a chartered car. Because it was a long weekend, we left a little earlier. There were many vehicles on the road, but the driver was very steady and paid close attention to the traffic. He didn't overtake recklessly or honk his horn because of traffic jams, ensuring a smooth ride for us. He also kindly asked if we needed to rest or use the restroom. The car was spacious and clean. This way of getting to the airport saved us the energy of carrying luggage, and we arrived at the airport not drenched in sweat – a great choice.
