Tram/US
The tour was short but great we get to see Jiufen and Shihfen very thoroughly. William our tourguide was funny and very approachable. We beat all the crowd by visiting early and leaving early.

Excellent visit of really interesting venues with Willans who was a well informed tour guide. He really went out of his way to show us a good experience. My only recommendation would be to do this tour as a longer all day visit to allow for time to visit the venues but if time is short...this is the trip for you.
