    We have just returned from a 10 day 'Around Formosa' tour of Taiwan arranged through tourradar and MW tours and couldn't be more satisfied. The tour bus was comfortable, each days itinerary covered different sights and aspects of the island , all very interesting. The hotels used throughout were 5 star and good standard and breakfasts excellent. Both tour guides we had Alan for the 5 days best of Taiwan part and Tony for the day trips out of Taipei were professional , knowledgeable, organised and pleasant.

    It was an excellent tour with 5-star hotels. Tour pick-ups from hotel, not train stations. I felt like a queen.

    We are very pleased with this tour. We got to see what we have always wanted to see. The tour is well organized. The tour guide, Ciao, for the 5 days tour was outstanding. Anyone who is interested to see the whole island, I would recommend this tour. Despite the 11 days spent, there is still much to experience in Taiwan. I would gladly return one day.

    Alan was a great guide for the 5 days around Taiwan. A couple of the stops were not that interesting but overall great trip. The hotels were 5 stars. For the 3 tour days in Bankok, they were also very good. Lots of interesting stops.

    Typhoon Krathon brought havoc to the 5-day tour. We spent 3 nights in a hotel in Kaohsiung, and missed out entirely on the scenic East Coast. I actually think that, given the recent earthquake there and fairly predictable risk of landslides, the tour should have involved more half-day/day trips from Taipei. Our guide Alan Chou was excellent. He was f

    This was an excellent tour!!! Alan Chou was a fantastic tour guide -- knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and funny to boot. The sights were amazing and so were the hotels we stayed in. The itinerary was very well designed. Didn't realize Taiwan was so beautiful! I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to explore Taiwan.

    Apart from a little confusion at the beginning, as there were 3 buses all from the same company, meeting at the one hotel to do the same tour, all went remarkably well! The 5 day tour was excellent with amazing hotels and choice of food on offer. The scenery was amazing, our tour guide, Ciao was fantastic, humble, knowledgeable and caring. He did a great job as did the guides on the other buses. We got back to Taipei and stayed at the one hotel and day trips were organised for us from there, which meant no packing for a few days. These day trips were interesting with more great scenery and the opportunity to sample street food, which was great! And cheap! I would recommend this tour to any who may be considering it!

My flight leaves on August 21 at 11:30, so I also need to know where the location of your Day 10 hotel is so I can extend my stay.
