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.

I think it’s super convenient and great. It’s cheaper than the original price and it also comes with a lot of coupons that can be used with your itinerary. I’ll order again if I need to take the high-speed rail.

The cp value is very high in conjunction with the shareholder rights, and it is also very suitable for everyone to use together. The disadvantage is that you cannot get other snacks with the full set meal.

Not every station can collect it, only 2.3 stations can collect it. Please pay attention before going to collect it. I collected it at Ximen Station this time. It is very convenient overall. Just give me the code.
