ACADEMY · IN-HOUSE
City Guide for a Day · 6 hours
In-house for schools and companies
A six-hour guide course for a whole class or team. From what travellers worldwide are looking for, to field research in the old town, ending with everyone leading a stretch and receiving a certificate. Works as an ESG or outdoor-education programme.
- Length
- 6 hours
- Group size
- 4–20 people per class. Everyone leads a stretch at the end, so above 20 we split it into two classes.
- Price
- NT$2,000 per person. Negotiable for groups over 10, and we can issue a formal quote.
- Language
- Mandarin / English
- Booking
- At least three days ahead. We confirm coach availability, then come back with dates and a quote.
- Where
- Entirely outdoors, on the streets of Taichung's old town. We have no indoor classroom — if you need an indoor space, please provide your own.
- Certificate
- Everyone receives a certificate after leading their stretch — usable in a learning portfolio or training record.
What the six hours cover
- 01
What travellers are looking for
Start wide: how travel is changing worldwide, and what actually makes a city memorable.
- 02
Walk in downtown
A coach walks the old town with you, unpacking the parts of the job you only learn on the street.
- 03
Field research
In teams, into the streets and the shops — finding for yourselves the moments worth stopping for.
- 04
Turning research into something you can say
What you found is not yet what you can say. This part is the step in between.
- 05
Everyone leads a stretch
Everyone takes a turn, telling one stretch their own way. This is also why the class caps at 20.
- 06
Certificate
Certificates on the day — for a learning portfolio, an outdoor-education record or a corporate training log.
Who books it
- High-school and college classes
- New-hire training and team building
- ESG and CSR programmes
- Outdoor education and field trips
Companies · Schools · Associations
With organisations behind it, this can keep going
Schools can book this for a whole class, companies for a team day — or a company can fund students to take it.
Daily walks, guide training and free community tours are all kept going by paid programmes and organisations that back them. When a company, school or association joins in, training continues, community tours happen and local people keep telling the city's story. Every plan is clearly priced, with an instant quotation and a company invoice.
