“Excellent value for this tour, stayed one night in 4.5 stars hotel and 2 nights in 4 stars hotel. All 3 tour guides pick up and drop off very on time. 2 guides English are fair but one guide ( Billy Lin) spoke very good English, knowlegeable and very attentive. I will recommend this tour to my friends and will certainly book tour with Viator in near future. Thank you.”
Learn Taiwanese tea culture with King at Tainan TOT House, tasting four or more oolongs, comparing teaware, and practicing ceremony etiquette.

It was a very enjoyable couple of hours where I got to try different teas, learn about the processes of how they’re made and enjoy using the lovely ceramics King had for the different teas. King is a fantastic host. Not only is he very knowledgable on tea he is also very warm and friendly. He was very accommodating in rearranging the time of my session when I had time constraints to catch a train back to Taipei and also shared great recommendations for things…”
