Free walking tours in Taipeh

James gave a fantastic tour, it was both informative and entertaining. I learned a lot and really enjoyed it!

Leo was an awesome tour guide! He provided us with so much information regarding the history of Taiwan. You can tell he is passionate about his country and is a very proud citizen! He also gave us recommendations of places for lunch which was incredible. Fantastic tour guide!

This was one of the best tours I’ve done in any country (about 20 so far)! Shiheng was professional, friendly, patient, understanding, knowledgeable, and funny! It was a small group of 5, plus our guide, which was the perfect size. I’d like to emphasize that this is indeed a hike, despite it being paved and stairs! It’s mostly uphill for a couple of hours and multiple long flights of stairs (some steep). I recently had a medical procedure so that slowed me down quite a bit, but our guide and the group were patient and understanding. It rained on and off throughout our hike. We were able to explore temples (Taoist), learn about the flora and fauna, culture, drink local oolong tea and try spring onion pancake with egg. Would highly recommend this tour for those in great shape and haven’t recently had any procedures! Thanks so much!

Bridget did a great job of meeting people as they arrived, introducing herself, ensuring they had water and umbrellas or rain jackets, etc. She was enthusiastic and professional. One place for improvement is where we stopped for explanations and other things. Not once was there an opportunity to sit on a bench, stair steps, or even the ground. It was clear people were quite tired and wandered off a bit just to find a place to sit or be out of the rain. I understand there aren’t places with seats for everyone, but many times if she adjusted slightly (eg a few meters), some of us could sit. Also, 20+ people seems too large of a group for this tour down small alleys or even in the temple. Should be kept to about 10 people. Still it was good info! Just don’t recommend doing if you’re at all tired.

The tour was great. Shih-Heng kept a good pace, explaining about nature, history, culture, religion. He also was active before and after to give tips and recommendations about Taipei. I highly recommend this tour, but be aware of the steps!

Winnie and Yuan were very knowledgeable and friendly

They were very professional and made us laugh a lot

Bessy did a fantastic job as our tour guide on an incredibly hot, sunny day! We were all roasting so she found places in the shade. We even got a quick break inside AC to use the toilet and refill our water bottles. Definitely recommend this tour to learn more about Taiwan’s history! Thank you!

Great tour today. Had great conversations and learned a lot about temples! The tour guide was able to speak German as well!

La experiencia con Sergio fue fantástica. Desde el momento en que contratamos el tour se puso en contacto y estuvo disponible para cualquier duda o ayuda relativa al país, todo en perfecto castellano. Durante el tour nos explicó un montón de cosas sobre la cultura taiwanesa y respondió a todas nuestras cuestiones. Como él vivió en españa resulta muy cómoda la comunicación. Nos llevó a dar un paseo por la naturaleza y visitamos un templo Taoísta, acabando en lo alto de la montaña con vistas impresionantes de la ciudad. Después tomamos té y nos invitó a unas deliciosas galletas. Comimos juntos para rematar el día en un restaurante elegido por él en el centro. Nos encantó compartir una mañana de domingo con alguien local en Taipei y hacernos sentir parte de su cultura. Sergio se ha convertido en un amigo y no dudaremos en recomendar su tour a cualquiera que nos pregunte.

This was easily one of the best walking tours I’ve ever taken. Leo was exceptionally clear, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable. He provided a fascinating and well-rounded overview of the history, with just the right balance of political insight and storytelling. Absolutely outstanding!

James gave a great tour, elaborating on any questions asked of him, gave great recommendations and funny.

Very informative tour of Taipei with Beesy, lots to learn and hope I can come back for another tour one day.

Josi gave a great tour.

Andy gave a fantastic tour! He was engaging and educational. I learned a lot and had a great time

The tour was headed by two guides who worked in tandem. This is unusual but worked out very well. The itinerary, content, presentation etc were all very good. I recommend. RB

Very kind guide with immerse amount of information! Super interesing!

I had such a great experience on this walking tour — Bridget was an incredible guide! Her mic unfortunately broke down partway through the tour, but she handled it like a pro by projecting her voice and keeping the group engaged the whole time. She was always mindful of the heat, looking for shady spots for us to pause, which I really appreciated. The tour was the perfect length and a fantastic way to start my day in Taipei. Bridget shared so many interesting stories and local insights — her love for the city really came through. Highly recommend this tour if you want to dive into the culture and history of Taipei. Thank you, Bridget!

We had a really nice morning with Shiheng :) The trail was lovely and has nice views of the city. The stop at the end was very nice and by then we felt like we were just enjoying tea and snacks with a friend. Thanks again for taking the time out of your weekend to show us around!!

Lots of great info…got a great history lesson!! Leo made history really interesting!! Loved it!

Besse was a great tour guide…she gave us lots of detail about the spiritual practices and rituals, as well as lots of history about the buildings and early settlers here. And we ended up with the sunset on the river to finish the tour off! It was wonderful! I highly recommend this tour!

The tour was amazing! We went to three different temples with each their own story. The guide taught me so much and was absolutely lovely. Thank you!

Josi was enthusiastic, positive and informative. She also tried her best to guide us throughout the tour. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to people I know when they visit Taipei

Perfect tour for first time in Taipei!

Great tour! Genoveva was very knowledgeable and we had a great time! Would definitely recommend!
