Great tour - Had a great time last Monday. Gabe was a great tour guide. The lake is very beautiful to see in person. We also saw a very cool big temple-Wen Wu Temple. Definitely recommend the tour.

You will not be disappointed - This is a good tour of a beautiful, remarkable place. Without the organized tour, visiting this worthy landmark would be cumbersome. The tour was well-organized and our guide Vincent was friendly and helpful. Before the tour, check the meeting site; expect many tours gathering there in the morning. There will be an option to take a rental bike, use it - it is easy and provides good views.

Gorgeous Lake and Temples - It looks a very mystical the legendary Lake with the special ambiance. We met some tribal people I spoke too. An interesting expierence. And of course the Temples and the history. The Bliss of that remote places was in the air. I loved it. I do think if there is time it’s good to take the same tour but for two days to really enjoy the Lake and the surroundings. Vaness our tour guide took good care of us. I appreciate him.

A beautiful day around water! - The day tour was very enjoyable, exploring a beautiful part of Taiwan! I learned a lot about the area but also about the history of Taiwan and more!! Lyndon was our tour guide for the day and had so much knowledge, he could answer any question you would throw at him!! For example, I can now distinguish between a Bouddhist Temple and a Taoist Temple!! The Sun Moon Lake is a very beautiful place and I very much enjoyed taking the boat to places. One bonus was the ride around part of the lake with an electric bike. This was great fun and the scenary around there was just amazing!! A nice touch from Lyndon was to take nice photos of the group throughout the day and then sending them to us at a later stage. That was quite thoughtful!! Thank you Lyndon for a great day!!

Tour description - Beautiful area. It’s essentially driver service to Sun Moon Lake. Included in the tour is a ferry ride which stops in 2 other areas around the lake with local food and craft as listed in the tour description. There’s not really a guide. Just a driver to get you to the sight for sightseeing.

While the lake itself is... - While the lake itself is beautiful, not sure if it is worth traveling a good 7-8 hours within a day. We enjoyed the lake and the food street, the guide was very interactive :)
