One of Taiwan’s most famous destinations, Taroko National Park is known for its marble canyons, lush forests, and towering peaks.

Our visit includes highlights such as the Taroko Gorge Entrance Arch, Visitor Center, and scenic viewpoints along the gorge.

We dedicate a significant part of the day to exploring Taroko, with short walks, plenty of photo stops, and a relaxed pace. Sightseeing duration may vary with traffic, weather, or park rules, but your guide will adjust the itinerary to ensure the best experience.

5.00Sam is an awesome tour guide and Taroko is an amazing place to visit! I traveled with my parents (in their 80s). Sam is very thoughtful on arrange food place for my diabetic dad and provide route options based on their capability. He is also knowledgeable on all the scenery spots we stopped and gave us in depth introduction on history and science.
Amazing, thoughtful, family friendly

5.00Jimmy was a wonderful guide and made this an exceptional trip for our family. We have young children (ages 6 and 8) and Jimmy was very flexible with our needs. It’s tricky visiting Taroko Gorge because of the specific entrance and exit times, but Jimmy took care of everything. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and history, which added so much depth to the sights. He also knew what to see and when, to avoid crowds and optimize our time and viewing, and kept us safe (like away from rock fall areas). We noticed other tour groups did not receive this attention to detail. He also adapted to our style - we prefer more walks and he would find walks for us and pick us up from the end point (so we didn’t have to double back). Jimmy also got us some local treats (handmade mochi, local fruits) and our kids special souvenirs. Highly recommend booking this tour!
Excellent tour guide!

5.00This tour covered everything I wanted to see while visiting Hualien. Vincent made us feel so comfortable, gave us so much history about all the places visited and we didn’t feel rushed at all. He also managed to avoid all crowds as well and lots of helpful tips about Hualien in general.
A knowledgeable guide made all the difference

5.00Our guide Jack was very friendly, fluent in English, and very attentive. He was not only knowledgeable about the geographic / geological features of Taroko Gorge, but also provided historical and social context of this unique place. We enjoyed his company and all his suggestions for hikes in the area. We would definitely recommend this experience.
Outstanding Private Tour of Hualien and Taroko National Park with a Fantastic Guide

5.00We had an amazing day exploring Taroko Gorge and Hualien with Sam as our private guide. Even though we had visited the park before (in 2019), this experience felt completely new thanks to Sam’s knowledge and thoughtful planning. Due to the 2024 earthquake, many of the main hiking trails were still closed. However, Sam went above and beyond to make sure we still got the most out of our visit. He took us to several scenic viewpoints in Taroko National Park that we hadn’t seen before, and each stop was absolutely stunning. We also visited Qixingtan Beach and hiked the Sakul Trail, which ended up being a highlight of the day—gorgeous waterfall views and plenty of monkeys along the way! Sam adapted seamlessly and made sure we still had an active and memorable experience. What really made the tour stand out was Sam’s storytelling. He shared fascinating historical context along with fun details (like the meaning behind the marble balls in the dog-mouth carvings on Loving Mother Bridge), which added so much depth to the visit. He even took us to a fantastic new hot pot restaurant right near where we had stayed during a previous trip—it was a perfect lunch spot. We wrapped up the day at General’s Mansion, another place we hadn’t seen before and a great addition to the itinerary. Sam is an excellent guide—knowledgeable, flexible, and personable. If you’re visiting Taroko Gorge, especially with ongoing trail closures, having a guide like Sam makes all the difference. Highly recommend!

5.00We had a fantastic private tour of Taroko National Park and Hualien with Sam and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Sam was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the area, which made the entire day both enjoyable and memorable. We visited Qixingtan Beach and several stops throughout Taroko National Park. Many of the official hiking trails were still closed following the 2024 earthquake, but Sam did an excellent job adapting the itinerary. He took us to beautiful vantage points we hadn’t seen during our previous visit in 2019, giving us a completely fresh experience. What really stood out was the depth of insight Sam shared—from the park’s history to fun details like the meaning behind the marble “balls” inside the dog-mouth carvings on the Loving Mother Bridge. Those little touches made the tour feel special and personal. Sam also took us to a great hot pot restaurant in Taroko, conveniently located near where we had stayed on our last trip—such a thoughtful and spot-on suggestion. Since many trails were closed, he brought us to hike the Sakul Trail instead, which turned out to be a highlight—beautiful waterfall views and plenty of monkeys along the way! Our final stop at General’s Mansion was another place we hadn’t visited before and a great way to round out the day. Highly recommend Sam if you’re looking for a flexible, informative, and genuinely enjoyable private tour experience in Hualien!
