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 :-)

An excellent guide!
Agnes was the perfect guide for our short stay in Taipei. She prepared us well with thoughtful advice, assessed our interests and flexibly tailored our tour accordingly. Her historical and cultural insights gave us an excellent perspective from which to interpret and explore the city with her - and the confidence to explore on our own subsequently. We felt very well taken care and greatly enjoyed her company.

Terrific First Day Experience
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.
