This tour is truly amazing! It’s a fantastic time-saver as you get to visit numerous attractions in just one day. Our incredibly kind tour guide, Jerry, genuinely cares about his tourists. He was extremely helpful, providing us with valuable information and time-saving tips about the attractions while we were on the road. I highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to explore the highlights of Taiwan!

Why you must choose this tour: You can enjoy a comfortable premium trip by kiting out the length of stay with other tour companies. And with one click, they will buy you a meal at the best restaurant that is a 10-minute walk away from the attraction (the guide will go and come back while we are having free time or experiencing). In other words, one spicy chicken wing fried rice <- If you request this and take pictures and experience the place where they take you on the bus, they will buy you chicken wing fried rice with nougat crackers at the best restaurant in the area and bring it to you. They will also take you to the next place, feed you, drive you, and take pictures for you. Just choose this for the click-clack. Don't worry.

The Shuni tour guide is very professional. He explains the itinerary in both Chinese and English on the bus. He is not tired at all. He also actively assists tourists in taking photos and cares about them. He is very warm in the cold weather. It is worth recommending!

We arrived 15 mins earlier and there were already people in line. we found our guide Roben immideately. we hop on the bus at 11:25am and left at 11:33am. The itinerary was great and all the passengers were on time so we arrived back to Taipei Main Station on time. Roben our guide gave us information about the places we are going and gave us recommendations as well. He was really helpful with our questions. we love klook and will definitely use it again.

This is one of the best trips that I've had in Taiwan so far. We traveled to so many places: from Yehliu, Jinguashi, Golden Water, Jiufen Old Street, Houtong Cat Village, Shifen Waterfall, to Shifen Old Street. It was a long day: we started at 7:20 and reached home at around 18:30.
The driver was so friendly and knowledgeable in the history of those paces, though he could not really communicate in English (thankfully my Chinese was good enough to understand him).
Make sure to avoid December. It rained nonstop the day that I went.
