Because it's recently been renovated, it's relatively untouched by tourists, creating a tranquil and ethereal experience.

We were a bit rushed, but we managed to visit almost all the places we wanted to go, and the driver was very friendly.

Compared to group tours, there was less contact with other people, and it was more flexible, allowing for adjustments as needed. The itinerary was very well planned. I really enjoyed the trip, as it included watching the sunrise and riding a small train.

The driver was very helpful and attentive along the way, providing a great experience. The mountain scenery was also well-planned. The only downside was the 4-hour Alishan Forest Railway ride down to Chiayi, which was just too time-consuming.

It's convenient and comfortable to move up and down the mountain. The only slight drawback is when it rains.

I chose this tour because I wanted to ride the forest railway that has finally reopened to Alishan. We traveled by car to Alishan, but everything was smooth and comfortable. Accommodation arrangements and local guidance were also courteous and reliable. The train tickets to watch the sunrise were distributed the day before. I didn't have to line up at the ticket machine at the time, and was able to board the first train. The main line tickets were also secured, which was extremely helpful. Individual reservations weren't possible, so I was really grateful. The advance information was also courteous and timely. I plan to use this tour again.

The driver was excellent; he kindly helped us with our luggage and provided explanations along the way. The tour guide was very energetic and gave a very clear explanation, allowing us to gain a deeper understanding of Alishan rather than just a superficial visit.

The driver took us from Chiayi Railway Station to Alishan, providing commentary along the way and taking us to eat hidden gems of local cuisine. Our guide, Mr. Wu, offered a professional and engaging tour, and the return trip involved the entire Alishan Forest Railway, with the train conductor providing commentary throughout. The travel agency provided excellent service throughout the trip. It was truly a rich, informative, and wonderful tour, well worth joining!

The special car transfer saves you the fatigue of driving by yourself. Accommodation and meals are prepared, and the train tickets that are difficult to book are also prepared. You can directly follow the itinerary guide. Wandering among the trees and jungles, enjoying phytoncides and fresh air, it’s a great journey experience
