A highlight from Taipei - The Yansan night market tour was very enjoyable. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable – the right balance of encouraging us to be adventurous and taking peoples preferences into account (and also had some good recommendations for food in vietnam, where we were headed next). We tried food we wouldn't have tried otherwise, in a market we probably wouldn't have seen on our own given our limited time in Taipei. Wandering (well, being gently shepherded) from stall to shop to stall, in good company with a beer in hand on a humid evening. Great.

Great tour! Got to try... - Great tour! Got to try treats we would not have known to try otherwise. Definitely recommend this tour.

A terrific food tour - totally recommend it. - I enjoyed and would highly recommend this tour. Tasted loads of different foods that I would not have otherwise tried. All the food seemed to have been prepared with care and to a high standard. They have chosen and selected well. I went hungry and was well fed by the end.

Great tour of an old school night market tour with knowledgeable guide - This is a fantastic introduction to the variety of foods available in a Taiwanese night market! Yansan Night Market is a great location - it's a true old school night market. There aren't touts or cheap souvenirs or carnival games here, just good foods that have been here for generations. The food choices are well thought out and range from "everyday foods" (rice sausage) to "exotic gross out" (cow penis). There were seven stops, so make sure to pace yourself! Despite being born in the US to Taiwanese parents, and having visited Taiwan several times before, there were still many foods new to me and never would've thought to try. Ann was a fun and wonderful guide - her culinary background really enhanced the experience with detailed descriptions of how the foods were made and also why they were popular. She also had relationships with many vendors that ensured prompt service even when many of them were very busy. This is also a small group experience (limit 4), and in my case it was essentially a private tour as the tour is run even if there is only 1 booking. This is a great way to spend an early evening! Recommended!

The tastings are really amazing. A must... - <p>The tastings are really amazing. A must do! I've been to Taipei many times for business and this is the first time I've had some free time. After doing some research and debating what tour to do. I'm so glad I made time for this tour! Starting at a local market and ending at the most quaint little sorbet shop, the entire tour was amazing. I've walked by some of the restaurants that we went to and never knew they had such fantastic foods at these little mom and pop shops. Taipei Eats must have spend ton of time on research.</p>

Amazing experience. This tour is packed... - <p>Amazing experience. This tour is packed with foods I've never even seen or heard of. Which says a lot since I'm a Taiwanese-American. My favorite food was the savory tangyuan and Taiwanese spring rolls. The guide was explained each tasting and the history of each dish, offering great insight and meaning behind what we were eating. Besides the hidden gems, a huge benefit was when we went to the savory tangyuan there was a HUGE line and luckily being in our group, we got preferential seating and got seated almost right away.</p>

So much fun! Great guy and broad array... - <p>So much fun! Great guy and broad array of edibles. Just a bit noisy with all of the motorcycles commuting home from work.</p>

Delicious and authentic - I really enjoyed this tour. It was small and our guide was very knowledgable. The food was really authentic. We were the only foreigners around. Highly recommend.

Great street food tour with informative guide - Very knowledgeable guide leads the group through a non-touristy food market. We tasted eleven different foods from a variety of stalls. Almost everything was exquisite! Will recommend.

Street Food Paradise - My wife and I love street food, and this was ideal! We had 7 dishes total, and even though my wife is Chinese, they were all new to us. Included shark, sausage, rice balls, soup, pork and rice, bamboo, tomato-ginger, oyster pancake, and mochi. Our tour guide, Anna, was Taiwanese going back many, many generations, so she also shared with us the culture and history, and even gave us recommendations on music and nightlife and tourist spots. We spent over two hours eating, and left with full stomachs and open hearts. We had a blast. Thanks Anna!
