I really enjoyed my 5-day Taiwan trip. I feel that it was the perfect amount of time to see you the major tourist attractions covering a large part of Taiwan. Our tour guide Alan was excellent. He was very organized with the daily itinerary, and kept to the schedule with no delays at all. I had such an enjoyable time experiencing so many new things on this trip — from the superb 5-star hotels to the delicious food! I highly recommend taking this Tofally Taiwan 5-day trip with Alan as your tour guide, he’s simply the best!Show more

A great experience. Tour mates were from different countries and everyone got along well. Tour program was balanced and the hardest part was the walk up the lion rock but it had different levels for us to reach. There were also on-site guides to give a hand but they expect payment. The highlight was the safari experience as we were lucky enough to be surrounded by elephants at one point of the safari. We were really lucky. All the hotels, especially those outside Colombo, has huge rooms and interesting colonial features and great serviceShow more
