“Very enjoyable tour. I did my tour with May Ei and she shared lots of interesting facts about taiwanese food, similarities between Chinese and Taiwanese foods and culture, good spots to eat different types of foods, good places to buy souvenirs, etc. She started the tour with a visit to the temple and patiently explained the significance of the temple deities. Overall she made the tour very enjoyable and would definitely recommend her! Only recommendation is there's a lot to eat and try in the market so if positive do a group tour vs private so that you can order more variety of foods and share with each other.”
