Thank you Sophie for being an awesome tour guide! Fuss-free trip, and we managed to visit 4 different locations in one day, making it super worth it for those who want to maximise their trip. While it would have been nice to have a longer period to explore certain places (like jiufen), overall it was well planned and there was still sufficient time to eat/ shop around. While not included as part of the fees, the tour guide also suggests certain pre-orders (e.g. park tickets, lantern purchases, local food) we can make so that we minimise waiting time at each stop (considering that the trip was on a Sunday). Would recommend to anyone looking for a day trip to popular/hard to travel to places while in Taipei!

Mavis Guide was so cheerful that I had a lot of fun with the schedule. Jiwoofun is complicated, but you gave me good directions and told me about many good restaurants, so I went there and tried them, and they were really delicious!^^ I highly recommend it^^

This was our second tour with our guide Peter during our short stay in Taipei and we had a wonderful day out to see four stops: Jiufen, Shifen, shifen waterfalls and Yehliu Geopark. Both times were equally entertaining and I’m impressed by his ability to manage the interests and group size while at different stops. I really enjoyed the Yehliu geopark and stuffed chicken wings with fried rice! Only wish was that we had a bit more time at Jiufen to enjoy more of the food and snacks they had to offer.
