Latest reviews from our guests

My guide Charlotte spoke perfect English and had excellent communication skills following my booking to find out my interests and keep me informed about the tour logistics. She met me in the lobby of my hotel on time and had the day planned out. We used the MRT to get to the locations and then walked. I saw the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial, including the changing of the guard and the interesting basement museum and then on to the Bao’An Taoist Temple. We had local snacks along the way and finished the tour at an historical street with all sorts of local products and food. I learned a great deal about Taipei from Charlotte. She is an excellent ambassador for the city.

Vila enquires about your interests and then gives you several options to choose from. She adapts easily to any issues (I.e weather , traffic , etc ) and ensures that the activities are to your liking . I would recommend Vila to any new travelers to Taiwan especially solo travelers..
