I am glad that you had assigned Judy as my designated driver. She's friendly and knows how to make passengers feel comfortable. I would recommend my non-Mandarin speaking friends to book with your company as they aren't many English based platforms/channels available for booking drivers in taiwan

We really had So much fun and a pleasant experience during our trip in Taiwan. It has been years since I used a travel agent. The internet seems to make the task of booking travel easier. We want to thank you for Mr Richard for his patience as our tour guide for making our vacation a pleasant experience, with a lot of good memories to cherish and share with our family and friends. I also personally can't thank Judy enough the Travel Consultant, She has always been so helpful and efficient at finding great options and great deals on planning our trips. We couldn't have done it without her. Not forgetting to our driver as well for bringing us to all the destinations and driving the bus very carefully and safely. I’ve recommended your services to many of the folks in my office and next time we plan a vacation we will be sure to contact you! Once again thank you so much for the wonderful trip.

Everything was perfect and the planning was adequate, however we did think the itinerary was a little too packed as there was quite a large portion of time spent travelling. Wade was very informative and gave good advice along the journey. He was definitely the 'man-on-the-ground' type, and was able to foresee and adapt to various changes. I would like to extend our sincere thanks to the entire team, especially Judy and Wade for making our first ever trip to Taiwan a memorable one. We hope to be back again.

about Sun Moon Lake - Culture

Sun Moon Lake has a beauty that cannot be grasped by tourists who do not stay a night here. However, for time-limited tourists like you, we gingerly picked must-go attractions along the lake. Chung Tai Chan Monastery, the biggest Buddhist temple in the central Taiwan, shows resemblance to a mosque. Walk in through a cooper gate weighing 5.5 tons, you’ll see the tremendous Four Heavenly Kings propping up the four corners. The museum beside collects lots of Buddhist cultural relics coming from Mainland China. Puli, the town where Sun Moon Lake lies, boasts pure water that best suits brewing and paper handmaking. In addition to visiting Puli Winery and sampling Shaoxing wine, in the paper mill you can also make your own paper from fibers. After lunch, call on the famous chocolate shop in the town to have some desserts. Later, in a tea factory run by the previous mayor, sample Assam tea, which was admiringly praised by the Emperor of Japan. Lastly, located beside Sun Moon Lake, Wenwu Temple boasts an excellent view. Come to worship Confucius for academic progress and pray in front of Guangong for well-being.
