Reviews
A great guided tour, riding a bicycle on the alley road, listening to Chester's in-depth and wonderful commentary, let us realize that Taichung is really different, these people from the past era. Story. Background. Architecture. ....Fascinated! There is also the fifth market delicious and delicious, really a bumper trip!
Shine was an excellent guide. I can tell he is very passionate about sharing his wealth of knowledge about the history of Taichung, especially the buildings. Do this tour if you enjoy learning the history of the place you are visiting that you wouldn’t get just walking around by yourself. The Ubike ride itself was very easy - all flat. I also enjoyed the dessert stops for bubble tea and pineapple green bean taro on ice - excellent on a hot day! Shine also took heaps of photos and edited and sent them to me same day!
thank you for introducing Taichung to us with so much story behind, fantastic!
This is one of my most satisfying journeys. Chester is really familiar with Taichung. He is hard to beat him in all kinds of human history. He is humorous and very vivid.
It’s very fun. The small streets in Taichung’s old district are very comfortable to ride a bicycle. Under the guidance of the guides, I listened to their explanations and found that there are stories behind the old houses. The guides make visitors more aware of the locals. History and culture, as well as the influence of the Japanese rule, very interesting and special experience!
It is a good activity. In the morning, cycling through the streets and lanes is very freehand. Seeing to eat too much food in the morning, because it will go through a lot of food shops.
Is a very good value for the itinerary, the local tour guide took us to go a good place to go, push Oh! Tasty delicious trip!
Enrichment of the itinerary, suitable for those who like to taste the local cuisine to participate, the guide is very good.
This tour is not worth the price and time. Many delicious food, good service, will come back next time.
Taste a lot of Taiwanese snacks and food, very good food tour.
