What to expect

Most Taiwan visitors tend to stick close to the attractions in the capital. But did you know that the southern half of the country, particularly Kenting, is where the real treasure trove of culture and history resides? Kenting also boasts a friendly weather year-round, making it a popular tourist destination. On this tour, you'll visit the National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium (NMMBA), arguably Taiwan's best aquarium. Here you'll see fish, seals, penguins, puffins, and more, and you'll walk through the underwater tunnel. You'll then head over to Nanwan, one of the beaches of Kenting coast. It's a fishing village that boasts soft white sand stretching 600 meters long. You'll also explore the Chuhuo Scenic Area. Gas leaks to the surface and ignites in this area. Longpan Park, Eluanbi Park, and Kenting National Forest Recreation Area are some other attractions you'll visit on this tour.

Review for: Kenting Attractions Tour

I was the only non-Chinese in the group (it seems this tour is more popular for hongkong/singaporean guests). Although I can speak Chinese so I let them run the tour in full Chinese, if you are the only foreigner, you can request translations into English (the driver will use google translate, but its still understandable). Do note that the tour price does not include the tickets, you have to pay for your own tickets (its not too expensive tho). Other than that the tour was good, gave me an insight to rural Taiwanese life in Pingtung and the beautiful southern coasts.

The guide's Korean language skills were quite high, so the quality of the tour was very high. At first, I was worried when I looked at the schedule and made a reservation, but it was a really great day. Aquarium, beach, lighthouse, historic sites, temples, etc. I learned more about Taiwan and had a different experience. It was a happy day with good scenery and fresh air. Come back to the city in the afternoon, eat hot pot, visit the night market, and go shopping.

Overall I really enjoyed this tour for Kenting. There was a bit of a struggle to understand the english of the tour, but you can tell that the guide actually loves the place and is trying her best effort. You can use on speaker translation, or samsung interpreter if ever. I also think that the language used for the tour is based of the majority of the tourists. I think we have 1 Japanese at the tour that time and the guide only spoke Chinese/English so I am not sure if she enjoyed it. The travel was smooth too and the schedule is accurate. If you want to venture the whole museum of biology though, I suggest you book a different tour. Still, the different stops were worth the time. The view was so nice and I get to learn a part of Kenting's history and culture. They also give free water for the travel.

If you're going to Kaohsiung, it's worth experiencing at least once, but the long travel distance is a drawback. It seems like it would be better to depart an hour earlier, and you don't need a lot of time for the local tour, as the scenery is magnificent.

Review for: Kenting Attractions Tour

This trip was on my third day in Kaohsiung. I wasn't sure if going to Kenting was the right choice for a 3-night, 4-day trip, but the result was very satisfying! Guide Lee Seol-hwa was so kind and explained about southern Taiwan, so I gained +1 knowledge about Taiwan. After visiting the beautiful sea and Longpan Slope, which was Windy Hill, my heart felt open and it was a cool and fulfilling day.

It felt like a good opportunity to see the key highlights in a busy day. The guide was kind and the explanations were appropriate. The bus ride was comfortable. It was my first time doing a day tour alone, and I had a really good time. 👍🏻
