Crystal was a phenominal tour guide and an excellent organizer! I went to the tour a day after a typhoon and when we arrived in Yehliu, the place was closed. But she stayed calm and we went to the Heping Island geopark instead. I highly recommend this tour.

I was able to enjoy the nature of Jiufen and northern Taiwan in one day. The tour program was more thorough than I expected, so I didn't have to prepare anything special, which was nice. The guide was kind and provided me with a lot of local information.

From the meeting point to the end of the tour, Youngshim Guide provided valuable Taiwan information based on her 17 years of experience living in the area, local information on the travel destination (especially additional discount information and recommended usage of each store's products), accurate pick-up and drop-off, and especially the shuttle bus that allowed me to ride without waiting in the crowded Jiufen. I highly recommend Youngshim Guide to everyone around me. Thank you, Youngshim Guide. Stay healthy.👍🙏🍀
