On March 7, 2026, our driver, Mr. Cai, took us to Shanlinxi. Because of the winding mountain roads, we found his driving quite stable and safe, and he didn't overtake recklessly. Mr. Cai was rather quiet and didn't give us any special introductions to the sights, but he answered all our questions. The car rental coordinator was also very thoughtful; he even called Mr. Cai that day to ask me to check his messages and proactively inquired if we needed help booking lunch at Manyilou Restaurant. I had asked for dining recommendations for Shanlinxi on Line the day before, so the overall service was very attentive. Wishing everyone a happy trip and a safe return home!
We chartered a car to take us to our hotel at Sun Moon Lake the day after arriving in Nantou from Taipei. We had almost no worries from the start, as we were able to communicate our situation and requests via a group chat using LINE's translation system before the pickup.♫ Our driver, Ms. Zhu, was a woman. From the start, she was always smiling and trying to put our family at ease, which immediately put our children at ease. We spoke a little English with each other, and for the more detailed conversations, we used LINE's translation chat to discuss the details in Chinese, so it was no problem at all.♫ She accommodated all our requests, and on the way back, she shared many stories about the indigenous people, Taiwan, and nature. It can be difficult to communicate the finer nuances, but now that we can communicate using translation tools, I think it all comes down to the driver's personality, compatibility, and love for the local area. This was what made Ms. Zhu so wonderful for our family. It was our children's first overseas trip, and the day became a precious memory. Thank you so much!★
