● City Tour
With such a short stay in Kaohsiung, you can barely see the depth of this harbor city. Being called a harbor city, as the name implies, Kaohsiung is renowned for its high level of concentration of harbor and rivers, which in great part makes the city’s scenery ever more appealing.
Kaohsiung, a breath-taking city, is worth slowing down your pace to discover its beauty. We will take you to a few of Kaohsiung's most notable sightseeing and entertaining spots.
The tour fees will be covered kindly by Wenzao Ursuline College of Languages.
