Sun Moon Lake & Cingjing Farm Day Tour (Departing from Taichung City & Taichung HSR Station)

Eric Wu is an outstanding tour guide who made our experience truly memorable. He is very accommodating, kind, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. He made sure everyone in the group felt comfortable, well-informed, and taken care of throughout the tour. His ability to communicate clearly in both Chinese and English was a huge advantage, making the whole experience smooth and easy to understand for everyone. Eric was always patient in answering questions, giving helpful tips, and sharing interesting insights about each place we visited. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a professional, friendly, and reliable tour guide. Thank you, Eric, for such a wonderful experience!

Eric, our guide, was pleasant and was able to try to explain the history of the stops we made. However, due to bad weather, our Quingting Farm visit was partly chaotic with most of the participants wet. Nonetheless, Eric tried to warn us to bring appropriate accessories to counter the rain. Just for future learnings, the tour should account for the bad weather in the mountainous area and just suggest to visit other places or just allow the participants to find shelter in an indoor facility instead of letting them walk the trail in a downpour. organizing the group can be further improved by letting know the participants why they are gathered in a certain place.

This is a can't miss tour! I'm not usually a tour person and booked last minute, mainly for the convenient transportation. I'm so glad I did because it was so much fun! Eric is a great guide and knows tons of history and local lore. The vibes were vibing and there's plenty of room to explore along this itinerary as a solo or with the group. Perfect blend of a guided experience and an adventure! The sheep are ADORABLE! Be sure to bring cash for feed.

We booked a private tour to Sun Moon Lake and Qingjing Farm just a day before, and everything turned out fantastic. Our guide, Cook, reached out in advance to introduce himself, confirm pick-up details, and even reminded me to submit participant info for insurance — something I had forgotten. As we later found out, he’s also known as “Captain Cook,” which suited him perfectly. Throughout the journey, he was helpful and informative, offering great suggestions and adjusting the itinerary to suit our group of four kids and an elderly family member, so nothing felt rushed. At Sun Moon Lake, we took a boat ride to Ita Thao, where the kids enjoyed pedal boats and street food. Qingjing Farm was the highlight — stunning views, sheep feeding, and a fun show for the kids. Despite the long day, Cook remained accommodating, helped take family photos, and even dropped us at FengJia Night Market. Highly recommended for families seeking a flexible, well-organised private tour.

solo traveller here. my tour was conducted on 27 mar 26 and the guide was eric. our bus departed from miyahara before the scheduled 8am, which was great. we arrived sun moon lake at 9:45am & cingjing farm at about 2:35pm. we had some time for lunch at the street across sun moon lake. the tour was conducted in full english which was fine, although i would have preferred if it was in chinese instead. eric did offer to also speak in chi for the tour group. we did not have clear skies on the day at cingjing farm and the sheep show was cancelled. understandably, it can be cancelled due to weather conditions…. there was a horse show instead. we left cingjing farm at about 5pm and arrived back to miyahara at roughly 7pm. overall, this tour provides the ease of transport from taichung city to sun moon lake & cingjing farm as getting there w/o a car can be inconvenient. i recommend the tour for this factor.

Eric is such a good and responsible tour guide! He guided us from A to Z, and even he helped us to request for a refund of the sheep’s grass as there’s not may of sheep’s over there for us to feed. He always make sure all of the tour members are in line and not left behind.

A good day trip from Taichung. Eventhough it was partly clouded it is still worth it. Eric our guide was wonderful and told many facts about the places (he even helped us find dinner when returning to Taichung). We would also like to thank our bus driver who drove very safely in the mountains.

Special thanks to mika n her partner that make me n my hubby outing fullfilled n enjoyable. Both were patient,friendly and understanding. Our group include hong kong couples n korean family with a small grandchild. Mika n her partner give us ample time to walk n shop etc.

Vicky is the best tour guide! Super impressed that she’s both the driver and guide. Very hands-on, kind, and made our trip comfortable despite unexpected challenges like zero visibility at Sun Moon Lake. Plus, she’s a great photographer! Highly recommended.

Our tour guide/ driver was Mr. Max. He lived in Boracay for 10 yrs. so he speak a bit of Tagalog which is a plus for Filipino guests. He coordinated the change in the nearest pickup pt as our hotel has no parking. Also suggested the photo stops and took the photos while giving a brief history of the place. (Fav. trivia: Xuanzang and his temple>>> he is the monk in the “Journey to the west”) Sun Moon Lake - ita thai Pier (ticket booth for the boat ride & the shopping/ lunch break for prawn crackers, cabbage buns, milk tea and ice cream, twisted potato fries) - Xuangang Pier (performance from Formasan aboriginal tribe as well as the Temple plus the tea eggs and mushroom for snacks) Cingjing Farm (SHEEP!!!) - fed the sheep with grass and pellets (bought onsite) ; snacked on sausages, guavas and sweet lemons ; the horse show was really engaging (eventhough i could not understand it as it was in Mandarin) , he dropped us at our place of choice which was “Fengchia Night Market”
