About local Garen

Great Guide

Garen is a great guide. Full of energy, very well informed and fun to depend time. We thoroughly enjoyed the food tour with her. She is a born teacher and was able to make the intricacies of Taiwan food understandable. She was completely prepared with all that we needed for a wonderful morning.

Garen is amazing

Garen is probably the best guide we've ever had. She not only showed us the food of Taiwan, but she gave a fantastic cultural lesson about this remarkable place. She was a delight from start to finish, dealt with my dietary restriction, and I can't recommend her enough.

Amazing Tour With Jessica

We completely enjoyed our day with Jessica touring Sun Moon Lake! She was a great host, who was kind, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. She let us set the pace, and we were able to see everything that we had hoped to. Jessica added valuable cultural context at every stop. I highly recommend touring with Jessica, and visiting Sun Moon Lake!
