We booked a sunrise paddle boarding experience. The location was changed last minute but the company accommodated us by providing transportation from our hotel and back. This is a beginner experience but you should feel comfortable on a board because there was little instruction available in English. We stayed in the cove the entire time which was disappointing. The highlight was that they took wonderful pictures of us together

The location was correct, but we had trouble finding it because there was no sign. However, the owner came out to greet us. Our buddy, Rock, was incredibly supportive, and even though I'm a complete beginner, I felt like I was doing really well. We got about 100 photos and videos, which made for a great memory. I would definitely love to do this again.

The two young men at the Traveler's Inn provided excellent service. We saw them busy running around early in the morning, yet they were still so friendly to us, which we really appreciated. The bicycles themselves were also great to ride. When we returned them, they even gave us two cups of black tea! 👍 Sun Moon Lake is truly beautiful, and we'll definitely visit again next time! 🥰

The owner is very friendly. The 6-speed ladies' bike was more than enough for the Shuishe-Xiangshan route, and I didn't get tired. Although there weren't many ladies' bikes, the owner maintains them well. Using the QR code made borrowing the bike smooth and easy. There was no time limit. It was a pleasant experience.

The shop was easy to find, right in the middle of downtown. The transaction was smooth and hassle-free. We simply went inside, showed our QR code, and got our bikes. There were different bike sizes available to choose from. The only downside was that the horn on my bike wasn't working properly. Also, no safety gear, such as helmets, was provided, which would have been nice to have. Overall, it was a convenient and straightforward bike rental experience.

It was unfortunate that the transfer we booked separately did not drop us where the bike rental is located but it's okay as we still enjoyed the Sun Moon Lake and was able to walk around. Good thing that the ropeway was just a 10-minute walk so we were able to ride it immediately. We're lucky that it was a weekday so there's not much tourists so we got the gondola by ourselves only. The claiming of ropeway was easy, we just went to 3rd floor and showed the qr code and they stamped our hands with glow in the dark stamp for Formosan and we're already set. It was a good 5-10min ropeway ride. At the end of the ropeway from SML, there's few food stalls. Upon entering Formosan, just scan the stamp in your hand and you can ride the gondola again going to the theme park. It was a weekday so we had the place to ourselves and there were no queues. It was unfortunate that it rained the whole day but we still got to ride some of the rides there.

It was really fun, and we got to interact with many animals up close. The animals there are incredibly well cared for. We appreciate the staff's hard work in looking after every little animal in the hot weather. However, I wouldn't highly recommend the water park area. Since it's outdoors, there were quite a few small stones and insects in the pools. The floor is tiled, and my child ended up with two cuts after playing in the water.

I've been to many farms in Yilan, but this one offers the best value for money. The animals are all adorable, and the space is quite large. Outside the farm (no ticket required), the cute C Cafe even lets you pet cats, making it a family-friendly farm that won't disappoint. Highly recommend.
