Thanks for the recommendation! I was served by YiDa 易達 for my recent 7 days Taiwan trip. His 9-seater Volkswagen Caravelle is very comfortable and convenient to bring us around the southern part of Taiwan. Hotels recommended by YiDa 易達 were clean and comfortable. Because of YiDa 易達 we got a free upgrade to suite room for one of the hotels. YiDa 易達 not only is a good driver, we felt his knowledge to the places in Taiwan is even better than most of the tour guide. He knows where to eat famous delights and queues for us when we are busy shopping at the night markets. If you are looking for the best driver (cum tour guide) in Taiwan, YiDa 易達 is one of them. His contact info is as below:

Hi all,

Want to recommend my taiwan driver for you. Actually you can not just look at the price. It depend on the distance you go and what type of car. 7 seated and 9 seated can't be same price. This driver have their company, so even only 2,3 person and they can give u 5 seated car which is far more affordable. Impt is their service is very good, the car is quite new and clean.

Highly recommend my taiwan trip driver, you can get more infor frm his page:

I just came back from my Taiwan trip. As I was travelling with my parents and two young children, I decided to engage a taiwan driver to bring us around.

My driver is called Ah Hui. He can also be called Jackie. He drives a Ford Tourneo. The car is a new 8 seater and really spacious.

Ah Hui was very punctual in picking us up throughout our trip. He was lively and energetic and that kept our trip in the car not so uneasy.

As I was traveling with my parents, we tend to take more time at each destination with toilet breaks and short rests. However Ah Hui was very patient with us. He never complained and still greeted us with his smile every time he picked us up from the stops. He even bought fruits for us during our trip and asked us to eat in his car.

A more impressive act would be we left some of our luggages in Beitou during one of the day trip to Yeliu, Jiufen and Pingxi. After he settled my parents and children at Ximending, he drove us all the way back to Beitou and back to Ximending without any complaints and extra charges!

He can be contacted via WhatsApp and he's very prompt in replying messages.

His number is +886 988 090 976. One thing I like about him when I first contacted him is that he's not pushy and aggressive..

To all who intends to engage a driver for your Taiwan Trip, I would like to share the experience I had with the driver I've engaged!

Driver: Ah Hui
Number: +886 988 090 976 (Whatsapp)


I just returned from my 9D8N Taiwan Trip, of which I've engaged the driver from 5D4N for my travels with my family (6pax) to Taichung, Cingjing and Hualien.

As a summary, the main things differentiate him from the other drivers that I've engaged previously is his positive attitude, good customer service and cheerful personality. The summary of things that really impressed me:

1. I've contacted him in early January to enquire more about my travel itinerary as I wasn't very familiar with Taichung and Hualien. He patiently explained and assisted on planning the itinerary. He also reply very promptly to all my messages and calls.

2. One thing i really liked was that he did not hard sell his services. Instead he was informative and very helpful.

3. His spacious 9 seater car along with steady driving skills really help as half of the group had motion sickness. Oh did I mentioned you could also sing Karaoke in his car?! (As a note, his car is also wheelchair friendly)

4. He doubles as a guide + photographer to explain on the history and interesting facts about the place we visit and also actively helping us to snap group photographs.

5. During one of the days when we naively went up to Hehuanshan with just jackets and long pants, he gave up his thick jackets to us, so that we could keep ourselves warm while he only wore a thin sweater.

6. As we wanted to cover a lot of things within a day we often overrun the time. But he never complain nor charge the additional hour.

7. He often shared with us Taiwan's local delights and fruits.

8. All the rides with him were filled with jokes and laughter.

All in all, my family was very very pleased with his service and definitely intend to engage him as a driver if we do travel to Taiwan again! :s13:

A few people recommended Ah Hui here but no one listed his price, how do we know if it is reasonable and not fake?

Can the next person reviewing this driver please also list his price for our reference?

For a good comparison, can use the price calculator tool at ownrides.com to calculate the current market rate.

I would recommend you my friend who is working as a tour guide over there.

Just came back from there with her as my tour guide. Was indeed a pleasant and enjoyable trip with an excellent Lexus car for a smooth journey.

If you are keen, can contact her on LINE at Nico96437330. You can ask her for advice, not necessarily need to get her services. (Just tell her Kenneth recommended you)

I found a driver for Kaohsiung and kenting and he asked me to transfer him the full sum via PayPal, and I gave excuses because I was worried that he doesn't turn up after I paid. As the result, he agreed to only pay him when I arrived.

I would like to seek you advice, do you pay the driver the entire sum at the first day or how would you divide the payment?
