Půldenní výlet do staré ulice Jiufen v Tchaj-peji

A short but interesting trip to Jiufen. It was quite touristy (probably because it was a holiday), but still a nice experience overall. Big shoutout to our guide, Ms. Coco, she did an amazing job and was super nice. She really made the trip better.

Barbie byla velmi laskavá a vstřícná. V naší skupině byli převážně japonští turisté, ale dokázala s námi všemi komunikovat současně v angličtině i japonštině, což bylo super. Také nám dovolila jít se sami projít po městě s pomocí mapy, kterou vytvořila. Kromě ochutnávání jedinečných občerstvení z Jiufenu jsme si pořídili zázvorový čaj a speciální kaligrafické suvenýry s vlastním příjmením. Vezměte prosím na vědomí, jak přeplněné toto místo může být, ale přizpůsobte se tomu a nenechte si tím zkazit výlet. Děkujeme za prohlídku, Barbie! Můj manžel a já jsme si celou návštěvu vlhkého, mlhavého Jiufenu užili.

Frances was an amazing tour guide. She’s bubbly and a genuinely happy soul, and she was very informative throughout the trip. I really enjoyed my experience — without her help, it wouldn’t have been the trip I had imagined. The trip was awesome, and I hope I get the chance to join one of her tours again when I return to Taiwan.

Very good tour, tour guide was thorough, thoughtful, caring and informative (Ms. Chen?) ½ day was perfect for me. I would have preferred the night tour but I could imagine how busy and crowded it would have been. The daytime tour started with just the right amount of people but as the time passed, it got busier and busier with students from school, other tour groups, etc. The best part is that the tour guide explains just enough and then you're on your own to do whatever you want at your own pace. No need to wait for others, walk in large groups, etc. Highly recommend if you like to do your own thing for the most part.

We were a small group of 6. I was impressed by the guide who spoke Japanese, English, and Chinese throughout the trip. The map of Jiufen that she gave us was very useful. I also liked that it was focused on just Jiufen and the time is perfect because we arrived 4:20 pm, just before the crowds arrived. We had time to see Jiufen without the crowds. We also spent a good 2.5 hrs in Jiufen so was able to explore it in my own time and at my own pace, and I didn't feel like I missed anything. For first timers, would highly recommend this trip. Jiufen itself has too many gift shops in my opinion. I wish it had more food stalls and tea houses instead.

I highly recommend this tour for those who want to explore Jiufen at your own pace. Our tour guide Chen was so kind and thoughtful. She gave us a map she drew and explained the major sights and shops in three languages. She took the time to take care of everyone and answer their questions. We arrived around 4:30pm and had to return to the bus by 7:10pm giving us 2.5 hours to pick and choose what we wanted to do. Since it was my second time at Jiufen, I walked around a bit, bought some souvenirs and ate taro balls dessert. I was the only one in my group who wanted to go to Amei Teahouse. I went to get in line around 5:45pm and waited 15 mins for a great seat right next to the view of the sunset. I recommend that you get in line by 6pm if you don’t have a group reservation. The teahouse staff confirmed with me that I was with the tour group led by Chen from ST World. I got the basic set that came with oolong tea and snacks.

大学生二人組で夏休みに参加させてもらいました！バスガイドさんがとても親切で、手作りの地図を作っておすすめの場所を教えてくれたり案内してくれたりしました！九份は意外と道が複雑で人も多かったので、自分たちだけで行っていたら絶対迷子になっていたと思います。写真スポットやおいしいグルメなど、おすすめに従っていたらすごくいい思い出が作れました！ほんとにありがとうございました！！いつもは口コミなど書かないのですが、感謝の気持ちを伝えたくて書きました。九份に行く方がいればぜひ利用してみてください！！

First time Visit to Taiwan, JiuFen. Also the first time using Klook to book for a tour. The meeting point is clear and at a convenient location. Our Klook Guide, Miss Chen from ST World Taiwan is very friendly and had given us alot of useful information and highlight of various area to lookout for a photoshoot during the bus trip to JiuFen. It was a very pleasant overall experience.

대만에 도착하고 짐을 호텔에 맡긴 뒤 바로 집합장소에 갔어요. 둥그렇게 모여 계신 곳에 가서 혹시나 하고 예약 내용 보여주니 바로바로 적극적으로 친절한 유산가이드님이 바로 명단 찾아주시고 인사해주세요. 영어 일어도 유창하셔서 투어인원 국적에 맞게 설명 다 해주세요. 저는 한국인이지만 영어보다 일어를 더 잘 해서 일본어로 해달라고 했어요. 손님들 대부분이 일본분들이셨거든요. 일어를 너무 위트 있고 재미나게 해주셔서 버스네서 시간 가는 줄도 모르고 내내 웃으면서 다녔어요. 지도도 너무 귀여운데 직접 만드셨다고 하는 재주꾼이세요. 설명으로 구경해보라는 대로 보고 먹고 싶은거 다 먹어보고 여름 화창한 날이라 세시반에 떠났는대도 쾌창하니 사진도 잘 나왔고 오후되면서 석양이 정말 이뻤어요. 지우펀은 어디서 찍어도 모두 완벽한 사진이 나와요. 인생사진도 찍고 너무 행복했어요. 예약 필요한 찻집은 그날이라면 그냥 가도 될거라는 귀뜸에 가봤더니 정말 줄 안 서고 들어갔어요. 집합장소도 어린애들에게 알려주시듯 너무 설명 잘 해주시고, 아들이랑 기념사진도 찍어주시고 모든 매초 매분 투어리스트들을 위해 노력을 아끼지 않았어요. 오후 늦게 예류등 투어한 사람들이 몰려오기는 했지만 생각만큼 못 걸어다닌다는 느낌 없었는데 저번주가 연휴기간이라 좀 빠진 상태라고는 하더라구요. 가장 꼭대기 아간이 타로볼 가게 생각보다 줄이 빨리 빠져서 전망좋은 곳에서 먹을 수 있었어요. 아메이차루는 사람이 많으면 예약을 해주신다는데 그 날 상태를 보시더니 예약 안 해도 들어갈 것 같다고 하셔서 저희는 거기로 가서 차와 다과를 먹었어요. 서빙 보시는 분도 한국말 잘 하시고 사진도 자진 찍어주시고 좋았어요. 땅콩아이스크림 가게 사장님 사진 진짜 적극적으로 찍어주시고요. 이래저래 직접 만드신 가이드님 맵과 충분한 설명을 들은 탓에 정말 구경 잘 했어요. 반나절 투어인데도 불구하고 타이페이 메인스테이션 가는 길에 라호허제 시장 내려주시면서 또 막간을 이용하셔서 내려서 약 10분정도 화장실 위치와 메트로 위치 알려주시고 굿바이라는 말은 슬프니까 하지 말자고 하셔서 너무 사랑스러웠어요. 사진도 같이 찍고 인스타 친구도 했습니다. 버스투어 중에서는 언제 피곤할지 알아서 휴식시간도 주시고 한분 한분 돌아다니며 불편함은 없는지 궁금한건 없는지 알려주시고 지곳곳 깨끗한 화장실도 알려주시구 좋은슈퍼나 마사지 추천장소도 알려주시고 억지로 권하는거 하나없이 정말 웃으면서 듣고 웃으면서 여행했는데 대만에서 가장 즐거운 시간이었어요! 가이드로 인해 기분 나쁜 일은 단 하나도 없었네요. 다음에 오면 꼭 다시 만나고 함께 투어해주시는 기회가 오면 정말정말정말 좋겠어요!

We joined a half day tour to Jiufen via Klook and we were so blessed to have Ms Chen from ST World as our tour guide. She was very passionate about her job and so dedicated. In addition, she was so personable and caring. Throughout the bus journey, she painstakingly shared with us what to look out for in Jiufen, the things to purchase and the nice tea houses. After hearing that we were not able to walk up the flights of stairs to the main shopping street, she helped us with the taxi arrangement and kept checking on us if we were safe. Her cheerfulness really brightened up the dismal day as it was pouring rather heavily throughout that day. We weren’t able to have a very nice view of Jiufen that night, something I was really looking forward to. On our return trip, Ms Chen shared with us other places of interests in Taipei. We were really fortunate to have her as our tour guide; someone who cared so much for the tour participants despite it being a short half day tour.
