I recently took a tour in Taipei with my mother, and our guide Garen was absolutely fantastic! She was full of energy from start to finish and kept us engaged and informed throughout the entire experience without ever losing pace. What impressed me most was how adaptable and quick-thinking Garen was - she adjusted to our interests and pace. Her knowledge of Taiwanese culture and history gave us insightful understanding that we never would have gained on our own. Garen was incredibly kind and patient with us, making the experience enjoyable and stress-free. If you're looking for a local guide who can give you the real flavour of Taipei, I would highly recommend her without hesitation. This tour made our trip truly memorable! Thank you Garen :-)
A great experience walking around Taipei trying traditional foods and learning about the history and culture. Nicolas was very accommodating to our dietary requirements and tailored the tour well to our interests! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Taipei
My husband and I enjoyed our day with Garen exploring some areas of Taipei I had not visited before. She introduced us to some fruits of Taiwan which was fun. It’s great to try things we cannot readily get at home. I really appreciated the little tips she added throughout our day like identifying local versus imported goods and how to order at a restaurant. Made the rest of our trip so much easier to navigate. We added a historical element to our tour also and enjoyed our discussions about Taiwan history. Garen curates very thoughtful tours. Try to book her on your first day. It will be an excellent start to your trip in Taiwan. Oh! If you love ginger ask her to take you to the ginger store for all essential oil ginger products. Favorite thing I brought home.
We thoroughly enjoyed the food tour with Agnes as our guide. We learned so much about Taipei cuisine and variations across the country - it was great to have someone talk through all this detail as soon as soon we arrived in Taipei. As an amazing bonus Agnès provided such great information about Taiwanese history so we parted full of a delicious mix of food and knowledge. Thank you Agnès, a Superb tour it was lovely to spend time with you - I would highly recommend this tour.
