This tour is a bang for your money. The tour guide, Sophie, is so cool, knowledgable, and helpful. Not only is the tour so in order but also very fun and informative because of Sophie’s trivia. She also pre-arrange the lunch, milk tea, and the Miyahara ice cream. She also informed everyone the toilet breaks. We are very satisfied with this experience!

The tour with Sunny was fantastic. I'm from Spain, and I will definitely recommend it to my friends who come to Taiwan. I'm so glad I decided to see the surroundings of Taipei with this tour because it was incredibly comprehensive. Plus, Sunny was such a friendly guide.

⭐ Absolutely we loved Klook Taiwan tour! ⭐ Our guide was fantastic—super sweet, great sense of humor, and kept everything so organized we didn't have to worry about a thing. Kuddos to our driver Mr Yin and our tour guide Kate Hsiao 🫶🏼 The itinerary was just right: amazing sights, yummy food, and time for souvenir shopping without feeling rushed. If you're visiting Taiwan for the first time, 100% recommend booking with Klook. Made the whole experience smooth, fun, and totally stress-free. 🙌

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing experience on our Sun Moon Lake tour, and a big part of that was thanks to Jeannie! She was friendly, professional, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire trip. She shared interesting information about each destination, kept the group informed, and made sure everything ran smoothly. Her energy and passion for what she does really enhanced the experience and made the tour both enjoyable and memorable. Sun Moon Lake is beautiful on its own, but having a guide like Jeannie made the experience even better. Highly recommend this tour, and if you’re lucky enough to have Jeannie as your guide, you’re in great hands!

Tony was an amazing guide. He was really helpful to the group and assisted us in every stop. The Bitou Cape Hiking Trail as the first stop was no joke. If you enjoy hiking, you'll have no problem navigating through the pavilions of the area. However, if you're not a hiker like us, the trail will definitely test your endurance with all the stairs and the heat of the afternoon sun. After this activity, all other stops have been enjoyable despite the exhaustion from the trail. If you're into food trips, the Miaokou Night Market as the last stop will help you recharge before ending your day. Like the activity description says, bring sun protection, adequate hydration, and a change of clothes. Wear comfortable footwear fit for the trail and a lot of walking. Thank you for the adventure, MyPROGuide and Tony!

I had such a wonderful experience on the Jiufen tour, and a big part of it was because of our amazing tour guide, Franny! She was so friendly, bubbly, and helpful throughout the whole trip. She shared interesting information about Jiufen and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. As a solo traveler, I really appreciated how welcoming and accommodating she was. Thank you, Franny, for making my first Jiufen experience so memorable! I highly recommend this tour, especially if you’re visiting Taiwan for the first time. 💕🇹🇼

Our tour guide, Liam, was excellent at explaining the history of the attractions. He was engaging and had a very pleasant demeanor. Before we even arrived in Jiufen, he recommended several highly-rated and affordable local eateries, and even provided a map to help us find them, which was incredibly thoughtful. I also want to emphasize that Liam drove at a very safe speed throughout the entire tour. The experience was exceptional. This car tour was truly delightful and memorable! Thank you so much for helping us create such wonderful memories.
