About
Are you looking for an unusual side of Taiwan to check out, try heading over to Kinmen Island. Exploring Kinmen feels like a step back in time with original style Fujian buildings and lots of green space. History lovers will be fascinated by the many remnants of Kinmen’s past conflict with neighbouring China. On this private day trip you will visit some must-see and famed attractions like Juguang Tower, Zhaishan Tunnel, Kinmen Guesthouse and Kinmen National Park. There are a variety of souvenirs including the special Kinmen knives, peanut candies (gong tang), Kaoliang liquor, noodles and wind lion god products. If you want yo buy them, we can also drive you to the local shop for free. Make sure you have two or more visas and let us know if you are allowed to travel to Taiwan without getting a visa first.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- EdMotion0 contributionsHo hum transferThe driver was punctual but non-conversational. It is not important to book transfers on a foreign app as there are tons of domestic chatty drivers who will give you an idea of the country on the driveWritten 29 September 2021
- markandsue-840 contributionsVery interesting and unique tourOur English speaking guide, Jane, who was Hakka, was interesting and informative, we visited 3 of the Tulou, each one slightly different, and such a unique style of communal living - where some are living to this day, I can see this style of living will cease to exist in generations to come as it is isolated and lacks some basic facilities, at a certain age the ‘young’ are leaving for the towns and cities. The countryside is interesting with its rice terraces, banana and fruit plantations. There were racks of Persimmons and vegetables sun drying outside the fortified walls, and we got to taste some of these at the Hakka style food lunch in a restaurant in one of the villages. Janes part of the private tour we were on was a 5/5, we were picked up by car at our hotel, the driver did not speak English, and the car was a medium size sedan (with bright red interior), so there was not much leg room for my husband who is reasonably tall, and the drive is 2-3 hours each way, Jane met us nearer the villages. You will want to be warned about the driving...the drivers drive these roads daily, so know what they are doing, but it is terrifying to someone not used to the aggressive style, weaving in and out of traffic, the continual use of the horn....Wouldn’t recommend the private driver for nervous passengers.Written 28 November 2019
- wileens0 contributionsTotal waste of time and moneyThe experience was terrible from the word "GO" - we were told to queue up in a wrong queue for starters when we already had tickets, there were no seats on the upper deck and the so-called VIP areas with better viewing spots and seats were all chargeable. There were seats on the lower deck but you can't see anything at night. The cruise basically just brought all one along the bridges and Gulangyu but during the night, no one could see anything as the lighting was inadequate. 30 mins into the journey and the staff started playing silly games with the customers to pass time and to win small packets of food. OMG. The staff also shouted into their microphones on constantly hard-selling their VIP seats and souvenirs they were selling onboard. Try harder please. The 1 hour onboard was a total waste of time. Don't go for this tourist trap.Written 29 October 2019
- chris r0 contributionsXiamen in April 2019New discoveries:current popular foods: fishball, duck noodles,and peanut soup. Superstores: Walmart and Carrefour few store assistants as very few visitors and shopper. LEDs bulbs lesser and no variety. Zhongshan St.- only electric bikes still using and very clean and quiet few pedestrians too. No more people walking their prized dogs. Gone are the smartphone shops, the classy dress shops and shoes outlets. And disappearing malls and Supermarts. Now smoothies and fruit shakes refreshment stalls aplenty. Those pearls stores and packaged/preserved snacks outlets now plentiful. And very few smokers except beside the ferry to Gulanyu terminal. Xiamen is so clean at the the 8th market, practically no flies where fresh and dried seafood openly displayed. I will definitely go to Xiamen soon.Written 1 June 2019
