Cancellation: 1 day learn more
Highlights
  • Zhongshe Flower Market - Begin your one-day Taichung tour at Zhongshe Flower Market, where vibrant floral displays bloom year-round, featuring sunflowers, roses, lavenders, and more. Let the fragrant flowers wash away your worries and fatigue, and learn to coexist with nature among the flower groves.
  • Miyahara - Miyahara is a red-brick building constructed by Japanese ophthalmologist Miyahara Takeo in 1927. It was the largest ophthalmology clinic in Taichung during the Japanese colonial era. Fortunately, Dawn Cake, a pastry company famous for its pineapple cakes, acquired the building and preserved Miyahara’s original red-brick walls and archway.

Additionally, we will visit the Fourth Credit Union, another structure transformed from traditional Taiwanese architecture, blending the charm of the past and present. No longer a financial institution, it now offers a variety of ice creams to enjoy.

  • Rainbow Village Taichung - This area features artwork created by a former soldier who began painting houses in his settlement, now known as Rainbow Village, to save them from demolition. Over the years, his colorful artwork, depicting birds, animals, and people, has spread over the remaining houses in the village, which once had 1,200 homes.
  • Gaomei Wetland - Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Gaomei Wetlands, a magical expanse where nature’s finest elements come together in a mesmerizing display. Observe the wetland ecology, including mudskippers, fiddler crabs, and countless birds, up close. You can also experience the breathtaking beauty of the sunset at Gaomei Wetlands.

Worth my money - The tour was worth it and the directions going to the meeting place was easy to figure out. I recommend this tour if you want to go out of taipei even for a day.

A Wonderful Guide - Our guide, Peter, did a fantastic job. Not only was he engaging throughout the trip, he was knowledgeable about the place we visited, sharing the information which was easily understandable for everyone in the group. Truly, it was a great & memorable experience.

Taichung - Enjoyed the flowers in Taichung garden and the sunset in the wetlands. Ken, our guide , has limited English and sometimes it is hard to express himself. But he took care of us.

Very organized tour and a great, short way to experience Taichung! - Very organized tour and a great short, way to experience Taichung! However, the tour at Houli Flower Farm is too short and the tour at the ice cream place is too long.

Bad Tour Experience - Before the tour, MyProGuide informed me that they would advise me closer to the date of the tour on who my tour guide will be; MyProGuide didn't do so. Additionally, I am the only customer whom bought a tour ticket through Viator (this tripadvisor website), whereas the rest of the customers bought theirs through Klook. I had much trouble trying to get on the bus as the customer list which the tour guide was holding on to only consisted of Klook customers. A lot of to-and-fro ensued. MyProGuide's administration is a failure. The tour guide has really poor English skills and spoke with a lacklustre tone. Before the disembarking at every attraction, the tour guide fail to inform passengers clearly whether passengers should go back to the exact spot the passengers disembarked from the tour bus, or, a location closer towards the entrance point of the attraction and then head back together. Being a solo traveller, I'm at a disadvantage because I don't have any other passengers to discuss on the contingency situations; I had to constantly guess on where the tour bus will be picking me up from. This led to me waiting at the entrance of attractions like a fool, culminating in me always reaching the tour bus last and fearing that the tour bus will leave without me.
