Unforgettable 2 Days—Ask for Mr. Chan! Incredible 2-day trip around Taipei. Yehliu’s coastal rocks were surreal, Jiufen’s lantern-lit alleys felt magical, and launching the sky lantern in Shifen was an absolute highlight. What made the trip seamless was Mr. Chan. His service was premium and completely tailored to our pace, keeping us ahead of the crowds and stress-free. Every stop was stunning, but his hospitality made the experience. 10/10, highly recommend booking with him.

Did two Taipei tours: One of the city, then a fantastic "democracy" tour for those looking to deepen their understanding My daughter’s living in Taitung in Taiwan this year, so we’ve gotten to spend some serious time with her there, which has been lovely. After we got home, our stories encouraged a good friend to go back to Taiwan, where she’d taught English in the 1980s. We arranged for tour guides for our friend Eleanor in Taipei, as she was feeling a little overwhelmed about visiting a city she hadn’t seen in 40 years. Those tours wound up being fantastic and I wanted to share with the community. I had a wonderful experience setting this up with Just Taiwan Tour. All the communication was in English and they really went above and beyond. Eleanor, who doesn’t speak Chinese, ended up doing two days worth of tours. The first was with Winnie, who my friend described as a woman who loved Taipei and Taiwan and wanted to share her love and pride in her city with visitors. They used mostly public transit, as Eleanor wanted to see how it had changed since she’d been there. But they would have been happy to use Uber or taxis if that's what she'd wanted. They saw a tremendous amount of the city in one day. My friend had started with a massive list of places to visit and the tour company helped her prune it down to a manageable and still fantastic list. She said without someone from there she would never have been able to see so much so quickly and so well. Our friend is someone who always has lots of questions about what things were, why thing were and how things were and Winnie was really a nice way to get a local’s view of the city. Like understanding the crazy garbage collection system, the jingles at the convenience stores, how the temples were used, plus a million other questions. Winnie also knew amazing places for meals and snacks. It was not cheap, $180 US for the day. But my friend said she’d do it again in a heartbeat as she felt she got so much more out of it than she would have wandering around on her own. Highly recommended. However, the tour I *really* want to tell folks about came two days later. As I said, my friend was in Taiwan in 1985, which was when it was still a one-party police state under martial law. It was not a very open country. And then we came back after visiting in January and described this vibrant democracy and a flourishing country. “How had that happened and what did it feel like?” our friend kept asking. I wanted to help her understand (I wished I could have gone back again myself because I, too, wanted to understand it better). I talked to several tour companies in Taipei about a kind of “democracy tour” like one we’d done in Bogota a few years before. None of the tour companies really got what I was asking for until I got to Just Taiwan Tours. They were fantastic. The woman they assigned, Eden, was great. She’d lived through it all, done a ton of research and took Eleanor all around the city to places important in the peaceful transition from a police state to a multi-party democracy and a really engaged citizenry. She told Eleanor stories about what it had been like before, during and after, showed her all the places that are etched into Taiwanese people’s minds about this process and really gave her insights into the nation’s psyche. For example, when my family visited in January, we went to visit the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall and saw the changing of the guards. Very cool, loved the taps on their shoes. Nice photos. But we really didn’t understand what we were seeing. Eden gave our friend an insider’s view. The changing of the guard was moved from inside the memorial to outside and down on ground level in 2024, as part of an effort to get away from the "cult of personality" surrounding former authoritarian leaders. It’s now for the people and it happens on Democracy Boulevard. It was a day like that, asking questions, hearing stories. My friend said she felt like she was seeing the country through Taiwanese eyes and that it was deeply moving and fascinating. She felt like she really “got” Taiwan in ways the guidebooks and even a history book hadn’t given her. (Though she did recommend the book, “Rebel Island: The Incredible History of Taiwan” by Jonathan Clements . It came out in 2024 and is a fantastic read. Not sure if it would have been better to read it before you go or after you’ve been. Maybe both!) So wanted to pass that along, for those looking for a little more in-depth tour. Again, not cheap at $180 US for one person (group wouldn’t have been a lot more, I don’t think) but my friend said it was so very worth it. If we go back, we’ll definitely organize a tour with these guys.

Jennifer was fantastic with our family Jennifer was an amazing tour guide and photographer. She was incredibly patient and understanding with our 8-year-old, who kept complaining about the heat and the short hikes, yet she still found kind and encouraging ways to motivate him to keep going. She was very accommodating to our requests and shared many great recommendations for delicious food, beautiful views, and fun activities to try. She truly made our experience enjoyable.

We were truly so impressed by how you could drive and guide at the same time with so much passion, knowledge, and love for your beautiful country. You did absolutely everything to make our day perfect. There was nothing we couldn’t ask for. You had no problem at all changing the itinerary so we could enjoy every single minute exactly the way we wanted. That flexibility and kindness meant so much to us. We feel so happy and grateful and we will definitely recommend you to anyone we know who plans to visit beautiful Taiwan.

Excellent personalized tour with great local guide We had such an amazing time with Just Taiwan Tours and cannot recommend them enough. We requested Tony based on recommendations we read in other reviews and we were so happy we did; he was an incredible driver and tour guide, taking us to some really special and unique places most tourists don’t go to, and was full of amazing knowledge and great tips for the best photo spots and hidden gems for food and other activities. The tour company is very flexible and accommodating throughout with special requests if you want to deviate from the planned itinerary, and all in all we had the most amazing two-day experience in Alishan and the surrounding area.

Great private tour of Taipei with cruise port pickup. Thanks Alvin! Thanks to Justaiwantours we had a great day of touring with our own private guide-Huaixuan Zeng (Alvin). We were picked up at our cruise port in Taipei by Alvin. Her car was perfect! We did not see good options to visit Taipei provided by our cruise ship. We were fortunate to find out about this tour from Justaiwantour. We visited Longshan temple, the Chiang Kai -Shek memorial, Taipei 101 tower, some cool local markets and some great places for my wife to do a little shopping. Alvin was awesome and we could not recommend her more highly. She got us back to the cruise port in great time. A perfect day in Taiwan. Thanks Huaixuan Zeng for a great time!

Our Incredible Day with Jennifer Jennifer was our guide and from start to finish she made our day memorable. Her expertise, manner and knowledge was amazing and even if she was unsure Jennifer would look it up to give us every detail in her answer. We have been on many excursions but today with Jennifer was the best yet! She was so patient and understanding the whole day, assisting and guiding us. We love Taipei and even more because Jennifer was such an incredible person to show us her beautiful city and Meokong tea plantation. The gondola ride was absolutely spectacular! Thank you Jennifer for making our day in Taiwan extraordinary and also by hand drawing us from a photo she took. Special memories forever.
