[Guaranteed Departure for 1] Jiufen Shuttle Transfer to & from Taipei City|KKday Express Direct Bus One-Way Ticket
Our family of four used this service for a round trip to Jiufen. They picked us up from our hotel in Taipei and dropped us off back at the same time. The driver was very kind and drove carefully, and communicated with us in English, broken Japanese, and using a translation device. They waited for us in the parking lot in Jiufen until it was time to return. The car was a Lexus SUV, and the ride was very comfortable. The journey was stress-free and pleasant, so we were very grateful for the service, which was well worth the price. Highly recommended!

Taoyuan Airport Private Transfer | All Taiwan
The contact information provided the day before was clear, the driver was friendly, and after picking up the luggage, I contacted him by phone. He quickly arrived at the designated pick-up/drop-off point and even helped put the luggage in the trunk. He navigated the route using Google Maps, was a good driver, and the car was comfortable and clean. He was also willing to let me know if I had any special needs. Overall, it was great value for money and highly recommended! 👍🏻

Sun Moon Lake & Cingjing Farm Tour from Taichung
The driver managed the itinerary very well, and we were able to reach the important performance at Cingjing Farm smoothly and see it. Although there was a section of heavy rain on the return highway, with torrential downpours so heavy that we could barely see the car in front! Everyone was exhausted, but the driver quietly and safely drove us to our destination. A big thank you to the driver for his hard work!

HAIFENG Dessert Train Ticket | Taiwan Railway
Both the sweet and savory meals were delicious, and the train stopped twice to explore, listen to historical stories, and take photos of Turtle Island. The interior of the train was upscale and comfortable, and the service staff were very friendly.

Nantou|Sun Moon Lake Pass, Includes Sun Moon Lake Cable Car Ticket, Lake Cruise Ticket, and Bicycle Rental Voucher
I bought cable car tickets and exchanged them at the port, which led me to the wrong place. The elderly staff at the ticket counter were also rude and dismissive, barely responding to my questions. Otherwise, everything was fine.
