Hsinchu: Smangus Stargazing Camping / High Mountain Wilderness Private Chef Experience / Primitive Forest Secret Realm

Thanks to the team leader Daniel and the entire team 1 for driving very gently, which made me feel dizzy when going up the mountain and was determined to vomit. We did not actually vomit on the way out or back. But of course I was a little dizzy ~ the overall experience was beyond imagination! 2. Daniel's style of leading the group is relaxed but he does everything he needs to remind and take care of. He also tries to dissuade someone from smoking in the camp. He has good handling and coordination skills. 3. The dinner, afternoon tea and midnight snack at the camp are all great, no I felt satisfied when I thought that I could have such a great meal on the mountain. 4. Although I didn’t go to Yulao in the end due to time constraints and there were no hot springs in Xiuluan due to the weather, I can save it for the next time. 5. The Giant Tree Trail is easy to walk and is a simple route that can be tried by people who don’t often climb mountains. 6. Everyone often talks about the problem of unstable hot water. Because the cold wave came that day and it was only 4 degrees, we didn’t take a shower!

Worth a visit to Smangus! I would say no regrets travelling up the mountains. We were fed very well for dinner and breakfast. The dinner included dessert as well and the food was delicious. Highly recommended!

highly recommended to join the tour! the tour guide and driver are professional and friendly! The arrangement is great 👍🏻 Worth to visit there.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The family traveled to Simakus on the third day of the Chinese New Year to experience private chef camping. Although it was raining, it had a different beauty and was very relaxing and comfortable. The children could be free-range. The adults and children had a lot of fun chopping wood and feeling the beautiful outdoor scenery. There was a professional Daniel who prepared rich dinner and snacks, and a delicious breakfast in the morning. His cooking skills were great. After a good meal and sleep, the weather was good the next day, so we took a leisurely walk in the mountains.

This was a very interesting trip, and we even saw a sky full of stars at night. However, hiking was really, really tiring. I highly recommend this trip! It was very cold at night though, so those who get cold easily might want to bring extra warm clothing! Experience: Hiking was tiring, but there were also many beautiful sights. Coach: Very professional, and the food they cooked was super delicious! 👍

The itinerary was very relaxing and flexible, with plenty of time at each stop, and the hiking wasn't too difficult. The leader's driving and cooking skills were excellent, and we had a generous afternoon tea, dinner, and breakfast. The tent was also clean and comfortable. The free high mountain cabbage picking and wood chopping were fun and made for a great experience!

There is no need for any preparation, a special car and a dedicated person to prepare the camping with luxurious food, coupled with the natural beauty of Simacus, it is very chill❤️. The tent is also very fool-proof, and even a novice can complete it in 10 minutes. Someone had a birthday that day, and the guide was very considerate and prepared a surprise birthday celebration with great care.

We were so fortunate to visit the beautiful Smangus in wonderful weather. We met Brother Hui, who was very familiar with the road conditions, had excellent driving skills, and a great sense of humor, ensuring our safe and pleasant arrival in Smangus. During our two-day, one-night camping trip and hike in Smangus, we fully experienced Daniel's superb culinary skills, from afternoon tea to dinner, and even warm herbal jelly. At night, there was an additional hunting excursion, and those who didn't participate could enjoy stargazing and roasting marshmallows at the campsite. It was truly a perfect itinerary! Daniel's tour leading style was relaxed yet well-organized, and his thoughtful care made my husband and I feel that it was excellent value for money. After hiking down from Smangus, he even prepared snacks for us, fearing we might be hungry. If you're considering a trip to Smangus, I highly recommend this itinerary. Having the good fortune to stay at Brother Hui's campsite, ride in his car, and experience Daniel's perfectly guided tour will create wonderful memories for your journey.

I was unlucky that it rained in the evening, but thanks to Brother Mao Daniel for taking care of me, the dinner was delicious! Breakfast is also very rich! This trip allowed our classmates who have graduated from college seven years ago to regain many memories.

Thank you Daniel and Maomao for taking good care of us. We didn’t get motion sick during the drive. It was fun to set up tents and chop wood. There was also a stargazing activity after a delicious dinner. On the second day, we enjoyed an indigenous special meal after the Giant Tree Trail. Ma Gao The iced tea is amazing!
