What to expect




Reviews
The instructor gave very detailed explanations and was great at guiding the children. Even though it was very sunny throughout the trip, it didn't dampen the kids' enthusiasm for listening to stories at all. Plus, there aren't as many tourists on weekdays, so walking and learning was really comfortable. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn about the history of Tainan and Taiwan—you definitely have to come!
The guide is very knowledgeable and was very patient in explaining to us the intricacies of Tainan culture. Highly reccomend!
Teacher Yan from the Tainan Mobile Knowledge Base taught many tips on appreciating historical sites. Following the teacher’s explanations, we traveled through the past and present, and it was a fruitful afternoon.
Tour guide Yan is very knowledgable. We met on time and he shared so much about the architechture and history. Highly recommended for those who want to know more about the local religions.
Sign up for the expert-led tour on 10/21 am. Professional teachers will explain the tour, which allows us to get to know and get close to some of Tainan’s cultural relics and history. It also gives us the opportunity to understand the workers/experts who still silently support and maintain historical culture. The dedication and hard work can present the current cultural relics for everyone to appreciate and remember. It is worth recommending that everyone who goes to Tainan can consider participating in this trip to add depth and warmth to your trip to Tainan.
This is an intellectual humanistic journey. After a guided tour, we have reversed our perception that history is boring and distant. It turns out that history is so interesting and close to life. Thanks to Mr. Qiu for the explanation, for understanding the reason why Chihkan Tower is listed as the first-class historic site, and the uniqueness of adding fragrance and oil in Kaijiwu Temple, and the National Theater that accompanies the great director Li An through his youth...Look Going to the hand-painted movie billboard in the theater, I feel back to the 1960s in the Republic of China, and all my childhood memories have emerged. Thank you Mr. Qiu for leading our family on a journey through time.
The guided tour is full and interesting, and there are all questions and answers, especially the allusions and historical culture of the temple. I really appreciate the guides who are willing to study in depth; I also happened to meet the three official emperors in the middle of the golden clothes, thank you for this opportunity 😊
The tour guide is a local and gives detailed explanations along the way. In addition to in-depth introductions to the scenic spots, he also talks about the local culture and customs. It is a rich experience and a worthwhile trip. It is highly recommended! ! !
It’s a great guide, I couldn’t find a guide at the beginning, but the explanations later are great, and I get a lot of knowledge! Big push
Teacher Yan is very knowledgeable and his explanations are very lively and interesting. The three hours passed quickly and we learned a lot about Tainan's history and local customs. Teacher Yan also patiently explained our questions. Highly recommended!
