My name is Tom, I am a private tour guide offering you tailored tours in Taiwan. I will take you to must go attractions as well as interesting places and people that would never be found on google maps. Taiwan is a beautiful island at crossroads in many ways that enables you to experience a brilliant diversity in history, geography, culture and anthropology. I've come out of soil with rich living experiences, I know Taiwan down to the earth. Before being a tour guide I have been a taxi driver, street vendor, factory worker, junk food salesman, paper money (burned in Taoist worship) shopkeeper and English tutor. Because of my living experiences, I can be a fantastic private guide showing you hidden corners and people at every turn. For example, I have accesses to an old Japanese mariner that did shoot at Allied troops in Saipan in WWII (no more, this old soldier passed away in 2021), a hearty aboriginal youth brewing cups of coffee who descends from a head-hunting clan, a manager of an outdoor traditional opera troupe who would allow my tours to be costumed and get on the stage to perform to please a local goddess on her birthday…. Welcome to Taiwan! Be my friends! I never see anyone as a tourist! Tour Guide License: Language(s)/Chinese, English/issued number:105*013018 Professional Driver's License: issued number/8210511011429
