I can’t imagine a better way to see and experience Taiwan than this 9-day tour. Starting in Taipei and driving counterclockwise we went from the top to the farthest southern tip of the country and back. Hotels were much nicer than expected as were all of the locals we met along the way. As most travelers know, a few words in the local language are much appreciated so set your Google translate app to Traditional Chinese and say hello! Our tour leader Cathy was funny, smiley, organized, and felt like my 2nd mother as she constantly made sure I was all right and happy. The trip itinerary was varied and extensive (maybe a few too many temples but that’s my problem). Perhaps the most impressive was the coordination between our tour leader and the travel company when an issue arose as when an indigenous cultural site unexpectedly closed. Cathy arranged for us to attend a special performance of another group which turned out to be one of the many highlights of the tour.
This tour was excellent, a great introduction to an interesting country, a great value for the price. I highly recommend it. Oh, and try to get Cathy Lin as your guide; you won’t regret it.

A great way to experience Taiwan
Booking the tour was very easy and Martha was always available to email and answer all enquires at every stage. The tour enabled us to see and experience so much of the Taiwan in 9 days. It was very well planned and organised. Alan the tour guide and his driver were always on time, helpful and informative.
We went to so many brilliant places, learned so much about Taiwan and had the most memorable times.
Thank you for making our trip to Taiwan such a brilliant experience.

After reviewing your tour company we began the process of booking our private tour. Beginning with booking process to all aspects of our tour we were very satisfied. Our representative, Fay Gao walked us through the entire process, making the arrangements easy and leaving us confident. Our guides were waiting for us at every destination with the vehicle and driver and dealt with us efficiently, courteously and professionally throughout. The itinerary, sights, hotels and most restaurants met our expectations. At times the itinerary was adjusted to ensure that we obtained the best possible experience during our tour. We would thoroughly recommend your company to any prospective clients.

Our trip with ChinaTours.com was nothing less than perfect! From our first airport meeting to our final drop off, every single guide was on-time, welcoming, professional and well spoken. Every tour we went on was well organized and every effort was made to ensure that we were happy and comfortable at all times. We especially loved Vivian, our guide in Beijing. She got us off to a great start and set the standard very high for all the other guides in the other cities. She was exceptional! So friendly and knowledgeable; very protective of us and especially our daughter (who got a lot of “extra attention” from the Chinese as I guess her appearance was a novelty to them). She had a lot off good suggestions and useful tips for the rest of our trip too. She was also a great photographer and because of her for the first time in our travels (and we do travel a lot), we actually have “family photos” of all 3 of us. Thank you Vivian. We will certainly recommend this tour company to our friends and family. From the first email and the communication with our trip coordinator – Lora Li – we felt in touch and organized. We really had nothing to worry about at any time. All the hotels were good, the domestic flights were all well organized, the planned meals were excellent. Overall, it was a trip of a life time and we sincerely thank you for that!
