TESTIMONIALSDear Ann,
Hi Ann, Hi Ann, Stopover in Taiwan on my business trip to London last month was great and an enjoyable one. It is definitely less well known as a tourist area compared with Hong Kong which I usually stopover at, but I found the level of service and tourist infrastructure equally great. Local food was surprisingly nice and tasty. I highly recommend the natural hot spring spa in Beitou Mountain 20 min north of Taipei via city metro. Soaking in hot spring surrounded by lush green mountains and creeks was simply the most enjoyable thing after a long flight. Dear Ann & Team, My name is Mr Somphone Sisavanh,I'm a husband of Mrs Leanne Sisavanh .My family and i just spent 10 days tour in Taiwan with your firm under your tour code code:TWEP9.We had a wonderful time in Taiwan with our tour guide in Taiwan. He is a excellent guy for the job of what his doing ,very helpful by looking after my family and I during our trip around Taiwan. He is a good man,we should have more of him in Australia. He is very valuable to your firm in Taiwan .Keep up the good work .May I wish you and your company to have a many prosperous years to come. We wouldn't be enjoying our trip in Taiwan without your excellent guide's service. I enjoyed my last trip to Taiwan very much despite the lack of sunshine (but good for photography). The 5 day round island tour was fantastic and the hotels great to stay in. It was a good introduction to the island and I plan more detailed visits in the future. The tour was very professionally organised and so was the tour guide (Walter). I just want to let you know that my husband and I had a wonderful holiday in Taiwan. Most importantly, we would like to tank you TaiwanHolidays.com.au for organising such an enjoyable holiday for us.
Mid Autumn Taiwan 10 Day Tour (25/09/10 – 4/10/10) Dear Ann,
I write to express our appreciation of your well planned, well run, and hassle free tour.
First of all, we found the Taiwan people to be polite, helpful, carefree and honest. We were pleasantly surprised at the airport that the banks and duty free shops had the same exchange rate. Even the hotel exchange rates were only slightly lower.
Our tour guide was outstanding. He spoke “News reader” Mandarin and excellent English. He is the only tour guide we know of, who did not once mention the compulsory gratuity. Our bus group consisted of Shanghainese Chinese, Cantonese Chinese, and Caucasian. There were large and small families with young child/ren, couples, seniors and singles. People were from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and the South Coast. The tour guide looked after us all well, and was even able to accommodate some individual requests. We appreciated the thoughtfulness of the frequent restroom stops.
All the hotels were top class and well situated. We had early 7am walks and night10pm shopping. We enjoyed the convenience of the Taipei Howard Plaza Hotel, with it’s numerous restaurants/eateries, and the fact that it was walking distance from three Sogo shopping complexes, and near two MIT (metro) Blue & Brown lines.
The meals (lunch/dinner) mostly reflected the local cuisine. There was a great variety of food to cater to our taste. The first lunch was served in a “mock” European Palace, and the last lunch in a restaurant like an Art Gallery with art deco, and furniture, where the food was good (Five Dimes Driftwood Restaurant).
For the whole trip, we were taken to three speciality places for possible shopping. The tea house (where nobody seemed to buy); the jade place (where everybody bought); and the cake shop (where most seemed to buy). There was absolutely no hassle at these venues.
The weather was humid, and the sky was mostly clear without signs of pollution. There was an occasional haze in Taipei. We found the country side to be all green, and the scenery varied from the mountains to the coast and the basin (Taipei). I was most impressed with the Taipei 101, the world’s former tallest building (2004). The elevator was fast and smooth. The clear night view at 89th floor was breath taking.
In conclusion, we greatly enjoyed this VALUE FOR MONEY TOUR. We will certainly be recommending it to our family and friends. As a matter of fact, we have already recommended it to our family G.P. who is visiting Taiwan early next year.
Yours sincerely,
Alex Fan (a satisfied customer) 6/10/10 2010 Christmas Holiday in Taiwan 10 Days Gourmet & Deluxe Tour The trip to Taiwan has been an awe-inspiring and unforgettable holiday for us. The tour would not be this great and relaxing if it were not for two dedicated staffs of Taiwan Holidays. I’d like to mention the tour guide, an energetic and pretty Taiwanese girl who has shown extraordinary hospitality and friendliness towards us. Her explanations of the sites and history of Taiwan were very insightful; her anecdotes of locals and family life had been very amusing and intriguing. She describes in colorful detail of her childhood home, her bringing up in a typically loving Taiwanese neighborhood and the various ways Taiwanese families support each other and celebrate different festivals. All of these made time fly while we were on the bus trip around the island, none of us felt bored and tired.
Apart from countless captivating stories, she welcomed us with singing an intimate Teresa Deng’s song which cheered us up from sleepiness in the early morning after an overnight flight. She bided us farewell with ‘Goodbye my Love’, which made us tear and stop our strides towards return journey.
She has entertained us with not only her talent but also accountability from the moment we arrived till the moment we left. Such a diligent, intelligent and humorous girl is a credit of Taiwan and Taiwan Holidays. Without her our trip would not become so impressive and memorable, she will stay in our heart eternally.
Another staff who ensured the quality and safety of our trip was Driver Li. The skill of his driving on rugged terrain had been remarkable. Throughout the ten days, Li drove us tirelessly to all tourist sites without any complains of fatigue. On boarding he would always wave and bid us hello: the friendliness and kindness is a vivid representation of Taiwanese people’s quality as well as spirit.
From the merely ten days, we have perceived Chinese Culture at the deepest, thank to the tour guide and Driver Li and Taiwan Holidays & Travel for offering us such a invaluable holiday. We appreciate your professional manner, most important your warm hearted attitude.
We will recommend you to all our friends, relatives, colleagues, neighbors and whoever possible; actually we are doing so as soon as we returned! Go with Susu, go with Driver Li, go with Taiwan Holidays.

To the staff at Taiwan Holidays Taiwan & Japan Cherry Blossom 18 Days Escorted Group Tour (April 2011) Discover Taiwan 12 Days (Nov 2011) Double Tenth Taiwan National Day Celebration & Gourmet 10 Days Tour (OCT2011) Dear Ann,
Thanks for the amazing Double Tenth Taiwan National Day Celebration & Gourmet Deluxe tour. It was a wonderful experience being in it. The staff in your company are very professional. The day we departed from Sydney airport, you were waiting there expecting us with a warm and beautiful smile. You are incredibly nice and friendly, and you helped us check in and filled out the forms and provided all the necessary information about Taiwan.
Throughout the whole 10 days, we almost travelled around the whole island of Taiwan. The tour guide is professional, as she is bilingual in Mandarin and English. She is also very nice and pretty. The food served tasted sensational, the accommodation was all luxury 5-Star hotels, the coach was brand new luxury and the driver has great driving skills, being able to drive over and under mountains. I’ve been to quite a few countries, but Taiwan appealed the most to me. Friendly citizens, delicious food and beautiful sceneries wherever I go. I would highly recommend www.taiwanholidays.com.au to all my friends, family and colleagues. It was an unforgettable experience and well worth the money. G.H.
