Experience tomorrow the best of
Taipei with Withlocals

"Yi Hsuan (Kate) was a great tour guide. She took us to some really interesting places and we tasted some delicious and different food. Highly recommended. "

"Sonia was great! She is very knowledgeable about the night market and helped me try new dishes! Thank you Sonia for a informative and memorable experience!"

"Great introduction to Taiwanese street food. Garen was welcoming and very organised. We not only enjoyed the food tasting but also the in depth advice re food and culture in Taipei. "

"We loved our food tour with Garen. We not only tasted delicious food and learned to eat like a local, but also learned a lot about Taiwanese history and culture from her throughout the tour. The food was excellent and varied, and she spread it out nicely so we didn’t get too full too quickly. We really enjoyed her openness and warm personality. You cannot go wrong if you book with her. "

"We have done a lot of withlocals tours and this food tour with Garen was one of the best yet. She perfectly balances spacing out food tastings with history lessons and also engaged with us during our random questions about taiwanese life and culture. We are mid 30 year olds from Chicago with moderately high exposure to Asian food (my husband being half Chinese) and she was introducing us to a lot of dishes we had never had before. Everything we ate was delicious, approachable. I couldn't recommend it more. I had such a fun time. "

"We had an amazing experience on our walking food tour in Taipei with Garen—truly one of the best guides we’ve had anywhere in the world. Traveling with our 21-month-old can be tricky, but Garen was incredibly kind, patient, and engaging with her, making the experience fun for all of us. She struck the perfect balance between fun and informative—we learned so much about Taipei’s history and political landscape, all in a way that felt engaging and easy to follow. The food was outstanding. We tried such a wide variety of Taiwanese dishes we never would have found on our own, and loved it so much that we returned the next night to track down a few favorites. What really stood out was Garen’s relationship with the vendors—there’s a genuine warmth and familiarity that made the experience feel special and authentic. As frequent food tour travelers, we can confidently say Garen is a rare gem. We’d come back to Taipei just to tour with her again—don’t hesitate to book, you’ll be lucky to spend time with her."

"We love doing the 10 tastings of Taipei street food with June! She worked around my sister’s food constraints and exposed us to new and wonderful treats.. June has a great sense of humor and we loved her company! Definitely do this tour!"

"Jessica was knowledgeable and well versed in everything Raohe had to offer. I’d recommend this tour to anyone coming thru."

"Garen was amazing. Her passion and knowledge was on full display and she knew EVERYONE!! I fully recommend her for any tour and what I really appreciated were her tips and tricks for living in Taiwan (I’m here for a few months for work). I recommend her to anyone and just may have to book her again in the future "

"We had a great experience with Sonia, we had a 7 hour layover in Taipei so decided to visit Taipei for about 3.5 hours. I got in touch with Sonia who planned the visit beautifully. We got to visit what we wanted to and also had a chance to visit a local market and sample some local food. From getting us around efficiently while being cognizant of going slowly since I had my mother with us, Sonia was an epitome of a perfect guide. If I am ever in Taipei I would not hesitate to hit Sonia up for a more detailed tour of the city. Cheers Devashish (David)"
