Chiayi Tours

I have high expectations for an Alishan Day Tour and it never disappoints. Alicia made our tour comfortable and enjoyable. i aplaud her translation skills between Chinese/English to accommodate all participants of the tour. She also made tips which trail maximizes the experience of our trek plus which spot in the train to capture nice video shots. Definitely do not miss Alishan as part of your itinerary as pictures alone do not do justice how beautiful it is being surrounded by Cypress trees.

I was drawn by the inclusion of the forest railway, so I booked a 2-day, 1-night Alishan trip (outbound: car, return: car + train). After the reservation was confirmed, I received information about what to bring and precautions via LINE. Closer to the date, I also received detailed information about the meeting point, driver's name, and vehicle number, which was reassuring. (All in Chinese, but translation software helped.) The documents provided when boarding the shuttle car also included Japanese, which was easy to understand. The guide spoke Chinese, so I needed someone to translate for me, but there was plenty of explanation time during the 2-hour hike. The paths were well-maintained with wooden decks and stone pavements, so even with my limited stamina and in the rain, I was able to walk comfortably. One word of caution: if you use a private car transfer, there's a high risk of motion sickness because the winding mountain roads have significant inclines. Even though I don't usually get car sick, I felt quite ill during the return transfer from Alishan to Fenqihu and wished I had brought motion sickness medication.

We had an amazing time on the 2D1N tour with Joanne! She is such an approachable, knowledgeable and amazing guide. Throughout the trip, she shared interesting information about the places we visited and other useful insights, making the experience even more enjoyable. The views were stunning, and the rides were so much fun! Everything made for a memorable experience. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Joanne as the guide! 😊

It was a great 2 days trip and totally worth it to go to Alishan (one day would have been too rush and not having enough time to enjoy Alishan/ Chiayi/ Taichung). Mr B. Tsai was very accommodating and flexible with itinerary, especially with kid. That’s the benefit of having private tour as we were able to change itinerary to suit us. He also dropped us off at Taoyuan airport af the end of the tour as per request. Accommodation was clean, quiet with beautiful view of tea farm. Will definitely book with them for other tours when next visit Taiwan.

Max was an outstanding driver for our Alishan day tour—punctual, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He made the entire journey smooth and comfortable, sharing great local insights along the way. Highly recommend Max for a stress-free and enjoyable experience!
