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.

The day before, I was switched from the Japanese tour to the Chinese tour due to the small number of participants, but luckily there was one other person, and the guide was incredibly attentive, which was a great help (they also speak English). I was able to visit historical buildings and places in Taichung and enjoy the scenery along the way. The Chimei Museum, which we visited last, was overwhelmingly impressive and so extensive that you couldn't see everything thoroughly in the time allotted. I'm glad I participated in this tour because the route included places I wouldn't have thought of myself.

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!

If you have this QR code, you can get assistance via a translation app, even though Japanese isn't spoken here. There are some dresses you can't wear, and I'm not sure if there's an extra charge for them or not. There's a good variety of dresses, but you'll only be shown a few. I chose the plan that allows you to go outside, and I think that was the right choice. The taxi fare from Tainan Station was 390 NTD. Please note that the experience is closed on Tuesdays.

Lovely activity to check out if you have free time as it’s close to the HSR station. Staff are all very friendly and helpful, and the venue was quite empty when I went on a Wednesday afternoon. Note that the DIY piggy bank is made of a heavy steel plate so be warned of its weight. The soft serve has interesting flavours. Worth checking out but not a must-do activity.
