It was my first time to go to Pingxi. When I went to Pingxi, I discovered that the lively place is Shifen. There are many people putting up sky lanterns in Shifen. The store holding the sky lanterns is very enthusiastic. The overall experience is great. It is worth experiencing again!

Thanks to our guide, Youngshim, I had a great day on the tour today. Thanks to you, I learned more about Taiwan. The peanut ice cream and chicken wings that Spun recommended were also delicious. I hope to see you again next time. Thank you for your hard work today.

The itinerary is well planned. The tour guide Libby LI is very familiar with the route and has a lot of experience. On the road where parking is difficult, she will contact the driver to find the most convenient pick-up point, making the whole journey very smooth. You can also ask her about food, drink and entertainment on other days, and she can give some local recommendations.

Yehliu Geopark was a good place to visit and see the wonderful natural formations. Jiufen night market was too crowded on the weekend

Pick up from hotel was on time, this is not a tour but an arranged driver with agreed sights for drop off and pick up. But limited to approx 8 pax so it is somewhat customised. Long day to cover sights and can be dropped off anywhere at end of day.
