We absolutely loved our food tour with Garen, which we booked after being recommended Garen specifically by my sister who did a tour with her a few months prior. Not only did Garen very delicious food and local restaurants, but she also shared lots of interesting information about life in Taiwan - including insights into Taiwanese culture and politics (we were actively asking about the politics, I'm sure if you're not interested in this aspect she would tailor the content). Thank you Garen!Amazing food with an amazing guide

Jones was friendly and accommodating. He is very knowledgeable of his trade as a tour guide. I enjoyed the food tasting with him and he was open to some request like taking photos and shop for souvenirs however, it wasn’t mostly the best choices of authentic local foods and wasn’t as I expected it to be. I was told that street foods are available during the night market. Out of ten tastings, I loved the Meatballs soup, Scallion pancakes and the dried nuts and fruits. FYI, Foods for tastings are included in the price. Thankful for the experience. I recommend Jones for your Food tasting adventure in Taipei. Great experience!

We travel a lot and this is our favourite tour to date! June has a wealth of local knowledge and will guide you to some of the most delicious food in the city, as well as being able to tell you as little or as much as you'd like to know about the rich history and politics of the area (these discussions in particular were a real highlight for us). Thanks June for such a wonderful tour. We will be back, and will continue recommending you to friends and family!The most incredible food tour we have done

We had a wonderful afternoon with Garen on our foodie tour. We were introduced to lots of local dishes that we probably would not have tried if we were on our own. We even went back for the egg pancakes the next day as they were so delicious. Garen also gave us some tips on other places to see that we took advantage of the next day. i.e. Taipei 101 and the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. Thanks, Garen for a great experience!Great day in Taipei

June’s tour was an absolute highlight of our trip! More than just incredible food, it was a deep dive into Taiwan’s rich culture and history, brought to life by June’s boundless passion and knowledge. Her love for Taiwan shines in every story she shares and every dish she introduces. The tour was fun, insightful, and, of course, delicious! We can’t wait to explore more with her next time. Highly recommend for anyone craving an authentic and flavorful Taiwan experience. Thank you, June! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Delicious, Fun, and Insightful!

Always hard to write a negative review when you genuinely like the tour guide. Judy is a lovely woman and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her as a city guide, just not as a food guide. Judy is not a “foodie”. One of our stops was the 7 Eleven where she pointed out her favorite prepackaged foods! I’ve taken many food tours all over the world, and for the cost of $134 I expected much more.Disappointing

Eva was a charm and felt like a part of our family within minutes! She took us to 100 years old family restaurants to try local cuisine far away from the touristic food markets, places that we would never have found ourselves. She was knowledgeable about Taiwanese history, culture, religion as well as food and spoke excellent English! The three hours passed quickly and apart from eating, we also had the opportunity to visit the Longshan Temple with Eva. Highly recommended! Wow, what a night!

Having visited Taiwan before, I appreciate that June included my request for fantuan...so good! We really enjoyed meeting June and talking to her about local life and politics in Taiwan.

Selected June for the 10 tastings of Taipei and am privileged to have spent the day with her. June shares her love of Taipei along with her wealth of knowledge while meandering around the Dongman Market. The relationships she has built with the Market vendors are priceless which adds so much to the tour. June is a Special Person!

It was the perfect way to begin our stay in Taipei, as she provided us with a blueprint for the different foods and neighborhoods (and the food we tried was AMAZING!). Thank you Judy for a very memorable night!!Loved this tour!!

June was enthusiastic and engaging, a fount of information about the various cuisines of Taiwan and their origins. The food we had was superb and the tea tasting fascinating. Strongly recommended as a way to appreciate the different contributions to Taiwan’s everyday food. Perhaps a taste of Japanese food, so widely available in Taipei at least, would have completed the picture.A great window into Taiwan's food culture

We’ve never hired a guide before, but I decided to give it a go for our short 4-days in Taipei. Turns out hiring Garen was a brilliant idea and has inspired me to do the same whenever we visit a new country! On our first morning in Taipei, Garen met us for a breakfast tour (her recommendation). With an in depth knowledge of Taipei history, and her kind demeanor, Garen spent three hours with us visiting various food stops we never would have thought of, trying foods that were unique and impactful to everyday Taipei life, with a rich history of each dish that helped us connect with the culture. I think the various soy milk tastings were high up in our rankings, but the fishballs were awesome too. We were so impressed with Garen, we hired her for another 4-hour tour on our last full day in Taipei. This time we covered tea, an historic city street, and the famous Nangxia night market. What an experience! Garen started with taking us to a multigenerational tea shop for an intimate private tea tasting with the owner of the shop and plantation. What an incredible experience to learn the history and taste the quality difference in commercial vs family teas. This was a special experience. Next was Dihua Street, with its amazing history and architecture only someone like Garen could walk us through. We tried various foods as we perused, based on Garen’s recommendations. They were spot on. All of it was awesome. Last was the Nangxia night market. One of the many reasons to hire Garen is that she knows which stalls make good food and why. Like a food Jedi she passed over various stalls and shared why, helping us identify which were the right ones. And she certainly was not wrong. The food she hand selected was amazing. She’d even wait in line and communicate with the vendor on our behalf to ensure success! While we’d consider ourselves food adventurous, I’d say each tasting well within any traveler’s range. Hire Garen if you want a local’s take with some history and a hand-curated list of food vendors sure to deliver the quality you’d expect from someone experienced in Taipei life like Garen. Our experience with Garen made me realize even back home I do not have the kind of grasp on food and its integration in culture as Garen. She brought an element to food that only someone deeply engrained her culture could - highly curated with love and passion. This was not simply an eat here not there kind of tour. Thank you Garen for making our trip so special! What a fantastic memory!Garen Made Our Trip Unforgettable

Jones met me as scheduled. He was most congenial and very knowledgeable. As we walked from tasting to tasting, he provided colorful descriptions of the restaurants we were to visit which included their history and fame. As we stopped at each restaurant, Jones suggested dishes I might want to try based on my preferences which I had shared with him earlier. At the end of the tour, which actually lasted a bit more than 3 hours (he didn't rush from tasing to tastng), I had experienced the 10 tastings promised, stopped and purchased some mementos for my grandchildren, and was escorted by Jones to the metro line where I boarded a train heading north to my next adventure. I highly recommend Jones to anyone who wants a great local guide with deep knowledge of the area's culture and food offerings.Great Food Exerience in Taipei with Jones

Great vibe and a perfect pace on this walking tour with Judy! Even though the highlight is a lot of absolutely delicious local delicacies, the tour taught me about urban planning and architecture, history, culture, farming, transportation, and geography! I lost count of how many different dishes we tried, but they were amazing and Judy was careful to listen to what my food preferences were and adjust accordingly... even though many of the sizes were described as "small", I feel like the portions were enormous! Easily large enough for 2 or 3 people to sample! 10 Stars for 10 Tastings!

My family of 5 and I enjoyed meeting with Judy .It was a very easy meet up because of her detailed instructions . Upon meeting her , you can sense the joy and positive energy that she brought to the tour . She has a very welcoming, excited vibe about her . We enjoyed all the food choices that she had us try . It was nice that she would ask us first how we would like to proceed with each tasting , making sure she was catering to our needs and requests. She made sure to engage everyone in our party , putting everyone at ease . The foods that she had us try were dishes we would not have tasted on our own , so we were very grateful for the tour . My personal favorite was sitting down in this small eatery that served fish balls stuffed with pork in a soup , with a side of vegetables and noodles . I also enjoyed getting in line to try the taiwanese burrito . The nougat crackers were also a big hit . All in All it was an enjoyable , awesome food tour . Thank you very much Judy !!!!!Excellent Food Tour

She accommodated our vegetarianism without any hesitation, and her food choices were exemplary. We appreciated the way she also worked hard to shine a light on Taiwan's broader history and contemporary geopolitical - it provided invaluable context for the tour. Thanks again Garen!

My mother and I had an amazing time on this food tour with June! She communicated with us beforehand to make sure we understood our meeting spot and how to get there (super easy). I told her up front although I was interested in city history, I was really interested in the history of food in Taiwan, how it was culturally relevant, and how different ingredients and cooking styles play a role. She absolutely knocked it out of the park with this—and it was clear her friendships with the vendors played a role in getting great food and service every time. She is so friendly and easy to talk about anything with. She also helped me pick out some ingredients at a local market for me to take home. All the food was amazing, but the Taiwanese “burrito” sticks out for sure as something special! 100% recommend this tour — I’ve done them all over every continent and this ranked as one of the best by far. So much fun hanging with a local!

Though this was billed as a "food" tour - it was much more than that. We did indeed eat great local food, and June took us to the best stalls/restaurants and she knows the owners. Glad we came hungry - as the variety and quality of the food choices was great. Have your camera ready as it was a visual treat too! We ended in a Tea shop where we were able to buy some gifts for family and friends at home. In addition, we learned a lot about Taiwan and its peoples, culture, and history. June is a wonderful person who gave us a great peek into Taiwan. Do not hesitate to book with her.Fantastic tour with June

I recently had the pleasure of a one-on-one food tour in Taipei with Judy, and it was an unforgettable experience. I appreciated how Judy tailored the tour to my preferences, taking into account the places I'd already visited and the foods I'd already tried. She introduced me to hidden gems and local spots I would never have discovered on my own, all while ensuring everything aligned with my pescatarian diet. Judy's knowledge of Taipei and its food scene, and her friendly conversation made the tour even more enjoyable. Beyond the food stops, she provided insights into the neighborhood we explored and even suggested other places I could visit during the rest of my trip. If you're looking for a personalised food tour in Taipei, I highly recommend booking with Judy. Solo food tour with Judy

June was an exceptional host to our food tour. She brings great point of views regarding everything Taiwan during our food tour in her neighborhood of Dongmen. This was our first time taking a private tour and we couldn't be more satisfied. We arrived 30 minutes late and June was very accommodating. Moreover, June is very knowledgable. It seems like every questions we have about Taiwan were answered by June through her lens of a native. Book June for your next tour in Taipei!Book your tours with June!

We had just arrived in Taipei and knew time was tight with regard to meeting Jones for our food tour - I rang him and he offered to meet us at our hotel which was such a relief. We immediately proceeded to a local establishment and sat down to eat delicious food and spent time getting to know each other. (Jones has many amusing personal stories). He then proceeded to lead us through the streets of Wanhua stopping every so often to taste a local delight. (A glorious interlude was visiting Ginger - and receiving a soothing neck massage - giving us a short rest from eating). This went on until we could eat no more and finished the night with a cup of tea. Overall the experience was very good value for money, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and great company- we were absolutely stuffed full. Thank you Jones 😋 😀So much delicious food

Can not say enough great things about Garen. My mother and I had an absolutely amazing 3 hours with Garen. She was fantastic at communicating with us and making sure we knew where to meet her for the tour. She has incredible knowledge of various foods - walking us through the market and pointing out interesting fruits and veggies that we don't normally have in our home country. She made sure my mother and I felt comfortable - asking us if we wanted to try x, y, and z. She knows a lot about Taiwan and when allowing us to eat our delicious street food, shared amazing stories, videos, and pictures about the Island. A food tour with her is a must if you want to try local authentic food and really learn a lot about the island. Wonderful food tour with Garen

They should just appoint Garen an ambassador for the city! She is a bundle of energy, extremely passionate and puts in a lot of thought to plan out the tour. She certainly knows her food - from a delicious breakfast at a local eatery to a walk through of the morning market to where to buy pineapple cakes (and where the crowd was sourcing nougat crackers from!) - she knew it all. But food was just the starting point - she had so much more to share about history, current ongoings, how small businesses are coming up with great ideas - had been in Taiwan for a week before i met her and she still added loads to my knowledge. One of the rare hosts who not only show you around the city but also give you a zeitgeist tour as well !

I’ve done plenty of food tours around the world, but this one with Garen is easily one of the best. Communication was top-notch — Garen was messaging with me weeks in advance via WhatsApp and kept giving recommendations even after our tour. The tour itself felt very local, with many of the stall owners along Dongmen market smiling and saying hello to us and Garen. The food selection was delicious with a good variety of local meat, fruit, and vegetable dishes. On top of all of this, Garen talked about the history of Taiwan, its people, and food culture which made the tour an immersive experience. Highly recommend doing this tour, especially on your first day.Incredible Food Tour with Garen
