    We really enjoyed our vacation in Taiwan with Moskito Adventures. The tour was excellently organized. We saw a lot and the hikes in the Taroko Gorge and the bike tours were our personal highlights. Our guide was very caring and always made sure we were comfortable. Many thanks, dear Chris ???? We will definitely book again, as Korea is still on our list. Best regards Jonathan and Petra
