What people love about Private Tours in Taiwan
- Around Taiwan 8 day Private Tour (Premium)
We had a slightly rocky start. After paying for the tour, I had to write back to check that our tour was confirmed. This was 48 hours after booking. After it was agreed to be confirmed we then received an email a couple of days later saying that two of the hotels were booked out and would we upgrade, costing another 50% on top of the entirety of the tour. After disagreeing I personally had to email examples of hotels that I could find that had availability and were similar in quality. This was agreed but interestingly when on the tour, one of the original hotels we stayed in anyway. We were also booked in a king side bed on the first two nights and strangely found that every hotel was then twin singles. Originally we thought this was the availability issue but this became the norm for all the hotels even those that had no capacity issues. The positive however was our driver and tour guide, Bill. He was polite, insightful and very professional. He genuinely felt like part of the family at the end of the tour. The quality of the hotels were good. Alishan is tougher but there really isn't another option. Language can be a real challenge so having Bill was very important in the Southern and Eastern parts of Taiwan. It's also hard to get to some of the best places like Alishan, Taroko Gorge etc by public transport. Overall Id give the booking experience 2 stars. But the tour itself and Bill 5 stars. Taiwan is a beautiful and very safe place. A great place to visit.
