Taiwan is known as Treasure Island. There are many wonderful sights to see. Taiwan is an island of great diversity, but driving yourself is not always the favoured option. The mountain roads have many twists and turns. I have driven through the Sierra Nevada, New Zealand and Ireland. Taiwan is both far more urbanised and far more rugged..

A great full day of adventure with plenty of time to see what we wanted. Tony was kind to show us the best place for bubble tea and where to buy local snack. We would definitely do this again and feel with was worth the price.

Reading the reviews we were a bit reluctant to book this tour. But it turned out to be a great day! The scenery is amazing and Josephine adequately led the group from one place to another. If you like to spend a lot of time in one place, than this is not the tour for you because you don't get an awful lot of time at the different spots. But if you're looking for a tour in which you want to see many things in one day, then we would definitely recommend it. Josephine was very friendly and was willing to explain a lot. Everything was perfectly organized and the lunch was amazing.

Taiwan is a small island with lots to see. Many people would be inclined to hire a car and drive themselves, but this is not always a good idea in Taiwan. Taiwan is mountainous, it's topography is rarely easy to follow. Therefore, arranging a tour is worth considering. You can consult the friendly people at My Taiwan Tour Travel Services directly or arrange your own itinerary on-line

We hired David around 6 months before our trip and made many changes to the places we wanted to go. He was very flexible with the changes and came up with a concise route to travel around Taiwan. However our trip clashed with the Covid-19 case and we were worried to travel to Taiwan. David reassured us that it is safe for us to travel to Taiwan and told us that he even had a few tourist he guided a week ago. Hence we decided to go to Taiwan! David is paasionate, responsible and always punctual. He would also go the extra mile to buy my family fruits in the morning and also provide us with umbrellas when it was raining. Furthermore, David is extremely knowledgable! Along the road he would always provide us with detailed information about places and even trees and flowers!! On top of that, he also knows many good photo-taking spots and help my family take photos. He is well connected with the people at different parts of Taiwan too. David would also recommend us food places that we MUST try which ARE really good!! He is also very humorous so that we wouldnt be bored throughout the whole trip. He ensured that everyone in my family had fun and felt the warmth and passion of the Taiwanese, of which we really did!! Overall, my family really enjoyed our trip with David definitely would contact him again if we are back in Taiwan!! Highly recommend !!
