Things to do in Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village

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.

We had a private trip with Klook for this visit. The driver was very helpful, punctual and the coach very clean and tidy. Very recommended to join Klook for your visit to Sun Moon Lake & Formosan Aboriginal Village.

It was a great trip with our guide A Jun. He was very enthusiastic in engaging with us and took great photos of everyone. We had fun and interesting conversations along the road so it was never boring. We went to Sun Moon Lake to ride the boat and landed on the little island with the famous tea egg and temple on top. Then to Ita Thao Shopping Street to have lunch and some shopping. Next we went to the farm for sheeps and equestrian show. Do note that sheep show is only available on holidays. Overall, it was a satisfying trip.

Great experience. Hike or bike the temple (first stop) if you can. The scene there is fantastic. There are lots of food stalls in Ita-Thao. The cable car is fantastic and total roundtrip is about 20-mins. The windows are. open so you can definitely feel the fresh air.

had a wonderful time without having to think so much. this tour made my travel a lot more convenient. shared a chinese meal with strangers. the tour guide, Dunken, is also funny and very attentive. overall, it’s a great taichung experience

Ease of locating the meeting point and although there is no tour guide provided on this day tour, it is very self-sufficient. The tour to Sun Moon Lake is enjoyable with lots of food choices. But for those who would like to explore the island by cable car, ferry or the bus, this half day tour may not be enough. The other half day is to visit a chocolate factory, stopover for donuts at a cafe and a visit to Paper Dome.

Jeannie was our tour guide for the Sun Moon Lake trip, and we had such a great day with her. She was friendly, helpful, and gave us some really good local recommendations. We’re big fans of tea and vinegar, so we especially enjoyed the authentic black tea store and the high-quality vinegar shop she recommended on Ita Thao Street. The beautiful scenery, boat ride, and bike ride made the day really memorable. It was such a fun way to experience Sun Moon Lake and the local culture.

Highly recommended for Koreans!!!!!! The Korean-language tour wasn't available on the date I wanted, so I ended up choosing this tour instead, and it was such a great choice!!! First of all, it was so nice that they picked us up directly from our hotel instead of having us gather at a meeting point haha. The tour was held privately with just 6 people in total—me, my mom (2 people), and a Chinese family of 4. The car was super spacious and air-conditioned, which was great! The driver couldn't speak Korean, but he explained everything well using a translator and some English haha. What truly touched me was that I had lost my wallet at the night market the day before T.T. When the driver heard about that, he said that after the tour ended, he would go with me to the night market to ask the vendors, kept calling the police station in between to check if any lost items had been turned in, and even offered to go with me to the police station to help file a report after the tour. We didn't end up going because we figured we wouldn't find it even if we went to the night market T.T., but he kept trying to help us, which really touched both me and my mom haha. Also, the Chinese family traveling with us translated between the driver and us in English and even bought us drinks lol. They were worried about my lost wallet together with us! Anyway, I had a total mental breakdown the day before after losing my wallet, all my exchanged cash, and several cards, but during the tour, my mind actually eased up, and I met good people and had a wonderful tour!!! I didn't know ferry tickets were included, but they were! The price is also reasonable, so Korean folks planning to visit Sun Moon Lake and Gaomei Wetlands, please use this tour!!!!! The itinerary proceeded as follows: a huge temple at Sun Moon Lake ➡️ Sun Moon Lake Visitor Center? (cool and good for a short rest) ➡️ Sun Moon Lake ferry (basic 3-stop course) ➡️ pineapple cake shop (no purchase required, has a restroom) ➡️ Gaomei Wetlands, and they dropped us off right in front of our hotel at the end haha. Oh, and you can use WhatsApp for communication before the tour~~

Our trip to Sun Moon Lake was such a beautiful and memorable experience! Our tour guide Mr Lin made it more memorable. He is very friendly, knowledgable, and very patient. Everything was well organized, and he made sure we were comfortable and enjoying every part of the trip. We visited the peaceful Wenwu Temple, enjoyed the stunning views of the lake, and took a relaxing boat ride across the water. The highlight was riding the cable cars, where we got an amazing panoramic view of the mountains and lake from above. From the breathtaking scenery and cultural sites to the relaxing boat ride and exciting cable car experience, Sun Moon Lake is definitely a place worth visiting. A perfect mix of nature, culture, and adventure! Highly recommending this tour to everyone.
