I was born and raised in Taipei. I love interacting with local people when traveling, and getting some recommendations about where to eat and where to have fun. When I travel to a new city, I try to find the best hidden gems to get lost in and most of the time it is a good way to see a different side of the city. Let me help you in the same way to find the best parts of my vibrant city. If you can't find tours that you like please feel free to contact us.

A small country, Taiwan is like a world in miniature that has much to offer. In fact, it is possible to find something that suits your liking the whole year round. Being an island, Taiwan has a wealth of seaside possibilities for both beachgoers and sea lovers. With its special terrain, Taiwan is home to many breathtaking mountains, hills, and valleys. In addition, the unique Taiwanese culture is a magnet that attracts new and repeated tourists to the beautiful island. Taiwan has several metropolises where people of different ethnicities have formed the foundation of the rich Taiwanese culture. As you make your way through different destinations, you are bound to encounter a cultural mosaic of diverse highlights, traditions, and events. As the social landscape of Taiwan grows increasingly heterogeneous, Taiwan will open up more opportunities for visitors with different cultural appreciation. One best way to appreciate a culture is through food. With its multicultural characteristics and abundant food sources, Taiwan boasts kaleidoscopic cuisines to live up to its name of a food paradise. From local delicacies to exotic culinary delights, Taiwan offers a whole array of food choices that cater to all tastes.
