⭐️Yes, the rainy season⭐️Dongdong Guide⭐️I knew that Taiwan's weather would be rainy, but when I experienced it myself, I thought the rain would ruin the trip. But thanks to Dongdong Guide, all my worries disappeared! Thanks to the meticulous consideration and cheerful explanation, my parents had a great time, and it became an unforgettable memory for my family. I sincerely thank Dongdong Guide for making me realize that it can be the best trip even when the weather is bad. Thanks to you, I was able to properly be filial to my parents! I definitely want to go with you again next time🫶🏻‼️

I visited 5 places last year and did a day tour each time, but this is the first time I've seen such kind and caring people. They told me about good restaurants, helped me make reservations, and took so many pictures for me. The Jiufen and Yehliu tour in Taiwan with Dongdong Guide was the best! The guide's information was really interesting and I never got bored because the explanations were so fun!! The pretty alleys in Jiufen and the amazing rocks in Yehliu were really cool, and I was able to see everything leisurely because we didn't have to go to too many places. Thanks to them, my trip to Taiwan was so comfortable and enjoyable! Thanks to the guide, my trip was more fulfilling, and I want to go again. I want to go with Dongdong Guide again next time! Highly recommended!

We had the pleasure of having Leon as our driver and tour guide, and we can't recommend him enough! From the very beginning, Leon was warm, professional, and attentive to every detail. Traveling with my 77-year-old aunt, I greatly appreciated his thoughtfulness and care. He went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable throughout the tour. Leon prepared raincoats because of the weather forecast and ensured that we were dropped off and picked up at locations that were easy for my aunt to access. Leon’s punctuality and promptness were also noteworthy, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. His dedication to creating a safe, memorable, and enjoyable experience for us was truly exceptional. If you're looking for someone who combines professionalism with genuine care, Leon is the person you can trust. He turned our trip into an unforgettable adventure!

Tickets were issued quickly, which is great. I really don't like the part about having to buy souvenirs. Not only is it not cheap, but you have to pick it up on the same day. When you get off the bus you have to rush to catch the bus, which is really inconvenient.
