What people love about touring Taiwan solo
- Around Formosa Taiwan
Allan Chou was a remarkable tour guide
- Taiwan Express
Great tour and excursions, professional guide, excellent choice of hotels, amazing food, unforgettable experience!!!
- Best of Taiwan 9 Days Tour Package
Alan Chou was an exceptionally good guide for the 5 day coach tour component. There was a 1 day tour for just the two of us up front with a free day in-between. Really a 7 day holiday with arrival and departure days making it sort of 9 days. Toroko Gorge was a highlight. Hotels were great, once you work out how to switch off all the lights. Tedious systems that would be OK in your own home once learned, but daft for such short stays. Still well worth 5 stars overall !!
