Mga bagay na dapat gawin sa Alishan

Wow~ I really feel like you can't visit Alishan unless you take a tour package. I realized there are a lot more high mountains in Taiwan than I thought. There are even higher mountains, but Alishan was also truly fascinating and extremely, extremely high;; Just going up and down the mountain takes an hour, and combined with the travel time from Taichung... it really exhausted me; Even after getting to Fenqihu, I thought, "Okay, we're finally here," but absolutely not. If you get motion sickness, you really, really need to bring motion sickness medicine... Even though I don't usually get motion sickness, it was really tough for me; Strangely, the Chinese-speaking participants on the tour—whether they were Taiwanese(?) or Chinese(?), I'm not sure—were all full of energy and completely fine... The tour guide was Taiwanese, and since there were 4 participants each from Taiwan and South Korea, instead of English, they guided us in Taiwanese and used a translation app for Korean~ Although the trip was exhausting, the photos are so pretty that all those feelings completely vanish, so prepare your stamina well and make sure to visit Alishan, everyone~ It is incredibly magnificent!

Highly recommended - felt safe all throughout the crazy windy bus ride to and from Alishan! Thank you as well to our tour guide, Henry! Prepare to go up and down some stairs. It’s quite a fast-paced trip but still enjoyed time with nature.

The Alishan tour departing from Taichung HSR Station was extremely smooth. After taking the high-speed rail, our driver-guide met us at the meeting point. Along the way, there were a few rest stops for restroom breaks or meals. We highly recommend our driver-guide, Xiao Xin. The mountain roads to Alishan are truly winding, which is why I had wanted to visit for a long time but never dared to drive myself. However, his driving skills are excellent; sitting in the very back of the 9-seater van, I didn't feel carsick at all. Best of all, we could sleep in the car and wake up right in Alishan—it was so comfortable! The scenery in Alishan is breathtaking, a must-visit destination in one's lifetime! The guide provided very detailed explanations of Alishan and shared many interesting stories. He also guided us along an easier, downhill walking route so we wouldn't feel too exhausted, and along the way, he helped take many wonderful photos. He even compiled them into a video and sent us the photos to keep as memories—he is truly dedicated! (As for sharing, the guide took some personal photos that I won't make public, so I'm posting the ones I took myself, some of which used photography techniques shared by the guide). On the return trip, perhaps to keep us from getting bored, the guide prepared some jokes, which made it a lot of fun 😆. The itinerary was well-planned, the guide was humorous and engaging, transportation was convenient, and it offered incredible value. I highly recommend everyone to check out this day tour!

I didn’t realize I book a Chinese tour but the guide was very flexible and it’s nothing Google translate can fix. The tea tour was very informative and the tea tasting ceremony was delicious! The Alishan walking tour was well planned, we didn’t have to climb up everything was just downhill walking.

The scenery at Chiayi Taiping Suspension Bridge is incredibly beautiful and pleasing to the eye. Klook's ticketing system is very convenient; you can scan the QR code directly for quick and affordable entry. Walking on the suspension bridge at an elevation of 1,000 meters truly gives you a floating sensation; it's genuinely a high-altitude cloud ladder. On the other side of the suspension bridge, you'll find panoramic views that can only be described as breathtaking. The scenery at Yunzhinan Tea Garden is stunning, and from there, you can walk to Taiping Old Street. Upon exiting, you'll see the Air Library, where you can enjoy a local hot pot set meal. It's definitely worth recommending a visit here.

Ang biyahe sa Alishan ay talagang kahanga-hanga 🌟👏 Ang "Sacred Trees" ng Alishan, nakamamanghang paglalakbay sa libu-libong taon. Ang matatayog na "Sacred Trees" na ito ay tahimik na nakatayo sa sinaunang kagubatan, ang ilan sa mga higanteng puno ng red cypress ay mahigit 2000 taon na ang edad, at tinatawag na "buhay na aklat ng kasaysayan." Pakiramdam namin ay pumasok kami sa ibang mundo, tulad ng isang paraiso. Nagpapasalamat kami sa aming tour guide na si Kuya Kai, siya ay mabait at matiyaga, at may napakayamang kaalaman sa kasaysayan, kultura, halaman, at puno ng Alishan. Sa daan, ipinakilala niya sa amin ang mga tanawin, nagkuwento ng mga kasaysayan, at tinulungan kaming kumuha ng mga litrato, na nagdagdag ng maraming kasiyahan sa buong biyahe. Bagama't umuulan nang malakas at may makapal na hamog, si Kuya Kai ay nagmamaneho nang napakaligtas, na nagbibigay ng kapayapaan ng isip, tulad ng isang nakatatandang kapatid na nag-aalaga sa bawat isa. Talagang napakahirap ng kanyang trabaho, salamat Kuya Kai, napakabihira na makahanap ng isang dedikado at propesyonal na tour guide na tulad niya. Ang aming biyahe sa Taiwan ay nagtapos nang perpekto, lahat ay sulit 👍👍👍

we had a nice trip with stay at Alishan Gou hotel. fetch from our hotel to Alishan train station. train uphill is a 3 hours ride. toilet on the train is rather rocky, is a fun experience though. the hotel is good just that hot water service for bathing is from 5pm to 11 pm only. hot and cold water dispenser available at hotel lobby. this hotel is good cos just outside the hotel is the giant trees trial. our lady tour guide at giant tree trial is v caring, knowledgeable and intro us to a lot of plants. shuttle service to hotel is every half an hour. morning sunrise need to take another train to 祝山。train station is just outside hotel convenience. downhill to 奋起湖 by minivan. bento is ok, but must try the mini donut there. Our tour guide downhill very considerate, caring and good driver. Hinoki village has some great photos. thank you to all our 3 tour guides driver to the station, at giant forest trail and downhill. would recommend this half free and easy trip to everyone visiting Alishan

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! 😊

​We had a great time exploring Chiayi, Alishan, and Sun Moon Lake, thanks to our guide, Mrs. Joanna Lin. She was incredibly professional, knowledgeable,warm, and patient with us at every stop. ​The only issue was the transportation. A Toyota Wish for four passengers felt too tight and uncomfortable for the long travel hours involved in this itinerary. Upgrading to a slightly larger vehicle would make this trip perfect. Thank you to Joanna for being such a wonderful guide!
