Our guide Stella was wonderful from the moment she picked us up at the Kaohsiung high speed rail station to the drop off. The car ride up the mountain was through some very windy roads so beware if you're prone to motion sickness. We had great luck and had the opportunity to ride the once a week wooden train up Alishan but the trails and trees are still well worth it even if you don't get to ride it. Would highly recommend this tour and Stella as your guide for your trip up this beautiful mountain.

A special thanks to our tour guide, Stella, who was incredibly warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. She shared the fascinating history of Alishan, taught us about the majestic cypress trees. She also took the most amazing photos for us, which made the experience even more memorable!

Captain Cook was a really amazing tour guide. I went with my older parents and he was really patient and made sure they were ok during the short hikes. He made sure to give us all the background and history of everything too!

Alicia was a sweet, knowledge, and skilled tour guide! The tour was ran smoothly and had lots of chances to take photos, buy food + souvenirs, and take in the beautiful sights. As someone studying abroad in Taichung for a month with only weekends available, this was a great and affordable (compared to US prices) way to experience Alishan.
