Sun Moon Lake Day Trip - Our private driver, Justin briefed us the detailed schedule for the day which helped us stayed on track. As it was the first time to Taiwan for some of us, Justin shared many useful information about Sun Moon Lake that helped us to navigate around. After a nice local lunch (at own cost), we proceeded with a bicycle ride around Sun Moon Lake to appreciate the scenery and bonding with my family too. We ended the day with a safe ride back to the hotel. Throughout the day, Justin took care of us and ensured our travel needs come first.

A fantastic day - I totally recommend this excursion. Our guide Ryan made our day perfect. It took us to all the points we wanted to see Pagoda Hundred, Wenwu Temple and we could also do activities we wanted to do, the spectacular bike trail. Thank you very much to Ryan because he even made us a photographer (lovely photos), and took us in his super comfortable van. Thank you very much.

✨ Sun Moon Lake from Feeling 18 to Feeling Amazing — Thanks, Ryan! - We had an absolutely fantastic Sun Moon Lake tour with Mr. Ryan Tang! From start to finish, Ryan went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. His energy, enthusiasm, and genuine care for his guests truly stood out. His recommendations for local food and milk tea were spot-on — we enjoyed every single one! And the sweetest surprise of all was when he treated us to bread at Feeling 18. That simple gesture showed how thoughtful and generous he is. Ryan is not just a guide — he’s someone who elevates the whole experience with his professionalism, warmth, and passion for what he does. We highly commend him and 100% recommend booking a tour with him. Truly exceptional! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Sun Moon Lake - Justin was an excellent driver and guide. He was knowledgeable, good-humored, and patient with us. Traffic on the long drive back was very heavy, but he was unfazed by it. We recommend him highly.

Sun Moon Lake private tour - Solo traveller, unable to get onto a tour to sun moon lake from Taipei which included the sites I wanted to see (Ci en Pagoda & Wenwu Temple, without an extended shopping break in Ita Thou). It's 3.5 to 4 hrs drive each way from Taipei so planning time there is essential. Justin was my driver guide, set up a WhatsApp in advance and asked what I wanted from the tour, and locked in a proposal to fit the day. He collected me at my hotel door right on time 0720, and followed through on the plan despite bad traffic making it a 2000 return to Taipei. He was friendly and chatty without being intrusive, and he focussed time on the things that interested me (like the amazing Wenwu Temple) and we really lucked out on the weather, so it was a long day but fun. Transport was a comfy MPV. Recommended.

Phyllis is Great - The tour was excellent. Sun Moon Lake is beautiful and the combination of water transportation and the gondola ride worked well. The car ride is a little long, but comfortable and Phyllis kept it interesting with historical facts about Taiwan and the culture. We were able to escape a cloudy, rainy day in Taipei and enjoy perfect weather at Sun Moon Lake.
