As a Taiwan native, I’m eager to share my hometown with the world. Once known mainly as an Semiconductor hub, Taiwan also holds a rich cultural history and diverse food scene. Guiding lets me show visitors the city’s transformation, its hidden stories, and the local flavors I grew up with—so you can experience Taiwan not just as travelers, but through the eyes of someone who calls it home.

“Insight to Local Life”
When we travel, my wife and I enjoy finding out how local people live. Museums and tourist spots are fine but we find we get more insight into a place from walking neighborhoods with an expert guide who can show us what we would likely miss. Lesley is just such a guide. She is charming and witty and willing to adapt her tour as we needed. Recommended!
