Worth it! Good experience and back to spend second half day in Taipei. - Our driver and guide, Williams, was really good. The time spent was just right, not too long in the quick spots and we got to see the Shiffen old Street and release a lantern, tour town just a bit and buy some souvenirs,. We then headed off to the golden waterfalls and Jiufen old Street with enough time to eat lunch and look around. Not too long and not too short. His driving was very safe as well. We’d recommend.
