Customer Reviews
- Georgia· April 2nd, 2025An amazing well thought out itinerary. Amazing tour guides and got some free days in there to explore separately also. Absolutely recommend, just wish we got more time in Osaka at the end.Show more
- Jenny· November 5th, 2023Communication with TourRadar before the trip was excellent. We liked the structure of the tour where we received the train tickets and travelled by ourselves. We met local guides and learned a lot about the wonderful places the Kyushu tour brought us and about Japan. Every step of the tour was well organized. The hotels we stayed with breakfast were all excellent.Show more
- Roland· June 15th, 2025We recently completed the Taiwan Express tour and we were thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the experience. The tour was very well organized, with scenic destinations and interesting activities. The accommodations were excellent. Each hotel we stayed at was comfortable, with clean, modern facilities and excellent service. Two of the hotels had hot springs that we enjoyed a lot. Every day of the tour was interesting. Taiwan offers such a rich blend of culture, stunning natural landscapes, and vibrant cities that there was never a dull moment. Danny, our tour guide deserves special recognition for bringing Taiwan's history and culture to life. His knowledge was impressive, and he had a gift for sharing fascinating details and stories that gave us real insight into Taiwanese life, both past and present. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in exploring Taiwan.Show more
