    There wasn’t much to see or do in the eleven days. For what there is to do, the itinerary should be shortened to seven days maximum. The typhoon prediction caused cancellations that weren’t necessary because we hardly got any rain. All in all I wouldn’t recommend this tour.

    I always recommend Intrepid I love what they do. Small groups, local guides, bringing us to the actual people, often solo travelers, always some exercise, some adventure. I have visited Taipei a few times and this time wanted to explore further. Taiwan is not on everyones radar and I love the mixture of Chinese and Japanese influences, besides it a stunning island. Taipei is a sophisticated, first class city.
