Tainan
Tainan is Taiwan's oldest city and was the country's capital during the Qing dynasty. This old town has now been transformed into a hipster enclave with a multitude of food options that you can stuff your face with!
Take a look at an abandoned sugar refinery that is now the Ten Drum Cultural Village! Queue early for the best seats at the Taiko Drumming show and take a tour of the sugar mill afterwards. Retrace Tainan's history as a Dutch colony by visiting Fort Provintia and Fort Zeelandia or visit one of the city's oldest temples – Confucian Temple.

Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Tainan and Taiwan by extension. He has so many stories to share about the different periods of Taiwan's history. The one area of improvement I'd recommend is maybe add more locations to let the group move around more as many of us were losing our attention given how in-depth the stories were.

Great and easy way to explore the Tainan area but you have to prepare extra money since entrance fees aren’t included. We ended up paying about 540NTD each in entrance fees for all the places we went to.

Charlie Lee is a professional tour guide. He is proficient in English, Manderin and Taiwanese. In addition, he has profound knowledge in history, religion , and even philosophy. He was very patient with my three naughty boys. He not only explained the history behind every cultural sites in great detail, he also helped look after my kids, paying attention to my kids' safety. Without him as our tour guide, this fun and eductional trip wouldn't have been possible. Thank you Mr. Lee, for this unforgettable trip.

Small group, oh! The overall experience was very smooth. The driver, Charlie, sincerely treated this trip and, although the arrangements followed the process, he took care of everyone's feelings. He always explained and introduced the plot on the way before experiencing it in person, which made for a great experience. In short, it was a wonderful journey!

The environment is truly wonderful (although it's still super hot even in September). The ecological tour on the boat is definitely worth taking. Even though it was just the two of us on the boat, the captain was very diligent in explaining everything and helping us take beautiful photos. We had dinner outside the park since the local restaurant, "Black Shop," is closed on weekdays (it's a bit of a drive since the area is relatively remote). There are many dogs in the park, but they are very docile and won't attack people. Unfortunately, the swings in the beach area were too high (up to my chest 🥹), so I couldn't experience taking photos on the swing.

The environment is clean, and the air conditioning is very cool. Although it gets hotter in the morning when the sun is strong, it's much better than a regular tent. There's a wavy light that can't be completely turned off at night, so it acts like a small night light, which might not be suitable for people who need complete darkness to sleep.

Brought my boyfriend to experience myofascial release, and the technique is very different from traditional massage shops. They customize a massage and relaxation method specifically for you. My boyfriend had a great experience and has already booked the next appointment! 👍
