Very impressed with Clock Wang's service. He is very encouraging and patient with both elderly and hyper active kids. Without his encouragement our whole family would not have made it up to the main peak of He huan Shan at 3416m above sea level. My kids love "uncle clock".

Overall it was a very good tour that enabled us to see the beauty of central Taiwan. Our driver, Mr He, was very helpful and responsible.

I enjoyed my trip thoroughly. I find it exceptionally helpful that Mr He is flexible enough to enroute to another location when we told him we have already visited one of the site stated on the itinerary. However, I hope the price could be made more affordable as I find it rather steep for just 2 pax. Maybe there could be a price tier set for different number of pax to make it more attractive.

Our driver to Miaoli Mr Sun was very chatty, which we didn't mind and rather enjoyed. He's very friendly and we could not thank him enough for the extra mile he went to help us find specific souvenirs as well as the bonus place he brought us to on our way to SML. But I have to comment on his driving up to HeHuanShan. Very often he braked and accelerated suddenly especially around the bends, which was a huge discomfort for us. I myself felt nauseous even after popping 3 separate motion sickness pills from Taichung all the way up to HeHuanShan. Although I do have a tendency for getting motion sickness, i must say I did not feel any discomfort at all on the same journey up to HeHuanShan on another driver's car the next day. It could be due to adjustment to high altitude, but I still would suggest for a more suitable driver for HeHuanShan/cingjing tour. Thank you for bearing with my constant change of plans begore the trip. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the online interactions and by the tours.

about Miaoli - Cows and Kids

People in Taiwan consider Miaoli a county full of rich Hakka culture. It's the place where people slow down traveling. But for travelers from Southeast Asia, Miaoli means beautiful gardens, nostalgic train stations, and farms providing chances to get close to butterflies and cattle. In Chungshe Tourism Flower Market, there are seasonal flowers such as tulips and sunflowers, as well as salvias and roses that flower throughout the year. Built with red bricks and sticky rice in the days when the Japanese Colonial Era, the rail bridge has been broken now, yet the root-covered piers demonstrate the beauty of history, making it a popular background for pre-wedding photos. In the same area stands Shengxing Station. Though the station has not been in real use for some years, the rails and tunnel here still attract many parents to have fun with their kids, experiencing the fun of walking on the rails and crossing tunnel. Around the station, some restaurants allow guests to make Leicha by themselves, while others are vintage restaurants featuring Hakka cuisine. Besides, the highlight of a trip to Miaoli is the Flying Cow Ranch, where children can feed ducklings, little rabbits, goats, cattle, and so on. Visitors can also make ice cream of their favorite flavors from freshly squeezed milk.
