Agnes is simply Excellent - the best City walking tour I've ever done. A great mixture of Taipei history, Metro experience, Architecture & Conversational enjoyment.

Agnes was an incredible tour guide. So knowledgeable about everything about Taiwan. An "8th generation" Taiwanese, her knowledge was unmatched. She showed us amazing architecture and an awesome Daoist temple. Learned about the "2-28 incident," which we hadn't heard of before. And she took us to an amazing cafe for pineapple cake. She was a delight and we would definitely book her again.

I booked a tour with Jessica for my Mom, my three aunts, and myself and we were beyond impressed! Jessica conducted the tour at a leisurely pace which is a very good thing since my Mom, although still very mobile at 78, doesn't enjoy doing things at a fast pace anymore. Jessica truly made the experience worthwhile and it was very interesting to know more about Taiwan through her eyes. My mom and aunties were still raving about how well Jessica made the experience memorable for us! Thank you, Jessica! Thank you, WithLocals!

Garen was our guide this morning and she was fabulous. She has a wealth of information regarding the history of Taiwan. It was exactly what we needed on our first day in Taipei.

Garen has high energy, very knowledgeable, quite caring (she made sure both of my knee wounds were treated at mrt station after a bad fall on our way to meet her), fun, very hospitable, great photographer, and became our go-to friend on all our Taiwan questions & needs. She accurately provided rich history, interesting culture, FOOD!!!, city gems, long list of recommended places our family were interested at - tea houses /shops, pottery, seafood, time-consuming & challenging transportation from Taipei to secluded Onsen Papawaqa, & the list goes on & on. We sure enjoyed her a lot!! We very much appreciate her service & guiding us all the way through, that she even went way beyond her time with us esp arranging our trip to Miaoli. We have nothing but gratitude & love for her. She played a huge part on this memorable Taiwan fam trip that will stay with us forever. Nobody could’ve done better than Garen. Thank you, thank you, thank you ♥️🫶🏽

Garen was an excellent guide. My wife and I had a wonderful time, learning some history and culture of Taiwan while we visited some of the must-see : Chiang Kia Shek Memorial Hall, LongShan Temple and the Bopiliao. Thanks again Garen.

Me, my wife and our 6 year-old had a very fun layover in Taipei after a grueling 14+ hr flight from Los Angeles. We are so happy we booked this trip to make the most out of our 10 hour layover at TPE. Jessica picked us from the airport early in the morning, drove us to the center of Taipei to see some of the sights, explained a lot of interesting landmarks and historical facts along the way and took great pictures of our family. For lunch, she took us to a bustling small eats place near the the Chiang Kai-Shek memorial, and from there to Sogo for some quick shopping for Hello Kitty paraphernalia for our daughter. Then, she bought us boba tea, drove us around some more and finally back to the airport to catch our next flight. The price was very reasonable considering she spent like 6 hours driving us around and walking us to various places. Jessica is passionate and very knowledgeable about Taiwan's history and the tour is highly recommended for history nerds like me. She is also a very safe driver in her Tesla X. We can't wait to go back to Taiwan and spend more time! See you next time!

Jessica was an incredible tour guide, we had a very short time in Taipei (only 4 hours in the city) and Jessica managed to squeeze in key destinations, amazing sights, and incredible off the beaten path locations. I couldn't recommend her more for a tour, she made it both informative and incredibly fun and helped us find everything we were looking for in Taipei!

Agnes was a wonderful guide, who's really enthusiastic about making sure her guests have the best experience possible. She took us to the Scooter Waterfall, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, and through a variety of locations relating to Taiwanese history and culture, as well as a stop for a Taiwanese snack and boba tea. She had lots of insight into Taiwanese history, culture and the current-day, which we found very interesting. She also had great recommendations for what else we could check out while in Taipei. Really appreciate the time she spent with us! : )
