A good choice for going to Penghu. The vehicles are equipped with tour guides. There are discounts for electronic payment now, which will be cheaper than buying tickets, but you have to check the end date of the discount.

I needed to rent a car during the Chinese New Year to visit relatives. The price is reasonable and the service attitude is good. I have rented a car several times. It is a good choice to rent a car when returning to Penghu.

There are cocktails to drink, which is great, and the sashimi and seafood are also delicious. There are a variety of alcoholic drinks to choose from, and the fried foods are also delicious. The service staff collected the plates very quickly. Thank you.

For me, who was visiting Penghu for the first time, taking Penghu Travel was the right choice. Because the sea breeze is very strong in winter and riding a motorcycle is very dangerous. There were dedicated drivers and tour guides to take me to various famous attractions in Penghu. And introducing the history of Penghu is a great experience😊

Because our flight arrived a little late, we were worried that it would be difficult to connect with traffic, so we deliberately chose a rental station where we could pick up the car at Penghu Airport. We got the car, filled up the gas, left the airport, had dinner, and arrived on the first day. Waiting at the hotel can be solved in one go. Similarly, the return trip is the same. You can go all the way back to the airport, saving you the trouble of connecting. The boss is casual, helpful and easy to communicate with. There is no dispute between renting and picking up a car. You don't have to worry too much about the trivial situation of renting a car. The condition of the car is average. The boss looked at our needs and chose a larger model for us to use (consideration +1). However, it is very windy in Penghu this season. Ha, there are some sections where you have to be extra attentive when riding. In short, there are Taking a motorcycle gave us a convenient trip to Penghu, where we could walk around, see things, and rest our souls! ^^

A very affordable museum package, with one price, you can visit all the museums in Penghu and explore the culture and customs of Penghu. Collecting stamps can also be exchanged for small souvenirs (big heart). However, due to the time we spent this time, we originally wanted to explore most of the museums. However, the weather was nice on the first day, so we focused on outdoor activities. The next day was predicted to be cloudy and rainy, so we held on to various venues where we could hide indoors, exchanging leisure time for humanistic knowledge. Phew! But I forgot that the next day was Monday and most museums were on holiday, which became the biggest regret. Well, I have visited at least two of them, and I have gained a little bit. The full Penghu style is all in my sight. It is worth visiting and experiencing it~~~ (The waiters are very kind and friendly, which is very good. praise.....)
