Meeting Point
At your hotel
Your Hotel in Taipei
I can pick you up with my luxury 7-seats MPV VAN (if passengers only 2 pax or under I will drive HONDA CR-V SUV) at your hotel lobby.
DaDaoCheng Historical area
I'll park my car near Da-Dao-Cheng area, and conduct a walk tour with you ( the tour would be around 2~3 hours depends on how deep you want to explore, my suggestion would be at least 2 hours include having lunch in some famous snack shop or restaurants here).
Red House, Xi-Men-Ding
Built in 1908 by the Japanese, this Western-style building and its surrounding square located at Ximending is home to Taipei's creative and culture industry, hosting exhibitions and performances daily.
Originally, the complex was built to serve as the first government-operated public-run market, and now is classed and preserved as a municipal heritage site. The building features an octagonal entrance and cross-shaped floor plan where merchants could showcase their goods. Today the market has modernized to become a space for the creative and art industry, including an outdoor Market for Artists and Designers located within the North Square.
Bo-Pi-Liao Historic Block (or Foot Massage)
Following we go to the Bo-Pi-Liao historic block ,the community of Bopiliao was firstly formed back in early Qing Dynasty. Since then, its history evolves as Taiwan went through different eras, from Qing Dynasty, Japanese colonization, to early Post World War II period. Situated in one of the most prosperous areas, Mengjia, architecture in Bopiliao reflects different culture of which it was built. The area is uniquely representative of once flourishing Mengjia.

“Excellent Service”
5 stars for Vincent! We recently had the pleasure of touring with Vincent, and his service was nothing short of exceptional. He demonstrated genuine care for our group, particularly for our mother, who uses a wheelchair. He ensured her comfort throughout the day, going above and beyond to assist her and make sure she felt included. His ability to balance attentiveness with a friendly and professional demeanor set the tone for a truly enjoyable experience. In just one day, Vincent took us to an impressive mix of fun and historic sites, customizing the itinerary to suit our preferences and pace. Despite the packed schedule, nothing felt rushed, and his knowledge and enthusiasm brought every location to life. To top it off, his kind gesture of offering to treat us to dessert made the day even more special. If you’re looking for a guide who is caring, knowledgeable, and dedicated to providing a personalized experience, Vincent is the perfect choice!

Kate, I am very glad that I could have this opportunity to take you and your family touring around Taipei, hope to see you soon.
“THIS TOURGUIDE IS A KEEPER!!!”
We went on a tour of Taipei with Vincent L. We went to the Yehliu Geopark which was most exciting. This is truly something to see. How sand can create such unique things is amazing to see. Then, we went to the place where people let off lanterns for good luck and good wishes. We walked around the town. There are many places to taste different types of foods from the local area. Now, to tell you about Vincent L. He was a wonderful, most caring, delightful guide to spend a day with. He treated me just like I was his Mother. He helped my son lift, steer, and go through ups and downs with a wheelchair. Every time I needed to get in and out of the wheelchair, he was almost lifting me out. He worked diligently to get me in and out of the car. His Mother should be proud of the way she raised him. He is a real "mensh." This was the most enjoyable trip. I wanted to take him home after our experience today. He is wonderful!!!
