Exploring Taiwan's Cultural Heartbeat

Taiwan's cultural richness is a captivating tapestry woven from different threads of history and modernity. Begin your journey in Taipei, the energetic capital city brimming with experiences. Wander through the Grand Palace Museum, home to an astounding collection of Chinese imperial artifacts. Don't miss the historic Longshan Temple, where incense swirls in the air, adding a mystical aura to your exploration.

For a taste of local life, visit the night markets, such as Shilin Night Market, where the air is fragrantly filled with the aroma of street food delicacies. From sizzling scallion pancakes to the unconventional but iconic stinky tofu, Taiwan's street cuisine is an adventure for the palate. The best travel packages to Taiwan often include these gastronomical experiences, ensuring you won't miss a bite!

Nature's Breathtaking Masterpieces

Venture beyond the urban landscapes to discover Taiwan's breathtaking natural beauty. The island is a paradise for nature lovers, with its lush green mountains, hot springs, and dramatic coastlines. Taroko Gorge, for example, is a must-visit with its towering marble cliffs and azure rivers creating picturesque scenes. It's no surprise that the gorge is often a highlight of Taiwan travel packages, offering a perfect blend of tranquility and adventure.

For those seeking serenity, Sun Moon Lake is an idyllic retreat. Nestled in the heart of Taiwan, this stunning lake is surrounded by lush forests and mountain vistas. You can cycle around the lake, take a scenic boat ride, or simply unwind and absorb the tranquility that this natural wonder offers.

A Taste of Taiwanese Tradition

Taiwan's traditions are as captivating as the landscapes. Visit the quaint town of Jiufen, famous for its historic teahouses and narrow alleyways illuminated by red lanterns. It's as if stepping into a different era, where tales of old blend seamlessly with the present. While exploring, enjoy a cup of traditional oolong tea, a staple in Taiwanese culture that is celebrated for its refined flavours.

The best Taiwan tours also take you to experience local festivals. Witness the Lantern Festival, where thousands of lit lanterns ascend into the night sky, creating a mesmerizing spectacle. It's a time of celebration, with music, dance, and the air filled with a sense of joy and unity.

Modern Marvels and Relaxing Retreats

While Taiwan's tradition captivates, its modern marvels impress. Taipei 101, once the world's tallest building, is a beacon of architectural advancement. Take the high-speed elevator to the observatory deck and take in the panoramic views of Taipei's skyline, a sight bound to leave you in awe.

After days filled with exploration, pamper yourself with a visit to a hot spring resort. Taiwan's hot springs are famous for their therapeutic properties, providing a perfect way to relax and rejuvenate amidst beautiful natural surroundings.

Embrace Taiwan's enchanting contrasts, where history and modernity blend seamlessly, inviting you to explore its vibrant cities and serene landscapes. With the best travel packages to Taiwan, your adventure awaits, promising unforgettable memories and stories to tell.

Taiwan isn’t just Taipei—there are many important cities worth visiting, like Tainan, which is known for its rich history and temples. Kaohsiung, a vibrant port city with modern attractions and cultural sites, is another highlight worth visiting.

I worked with Maria S. from Goway Travel to build a tailored trip to the Azores and mainland Portugal. Maria provided excellent, responsive and patient service, never pressured me into making decisions, offered multiple options for managing pricing, answered my many questions clearly and fully, and always met the timelines she would set to get back to me. Once I was on my trip, Maria checked in several times even though there was an operator on the ground at my destination; she even resolved a minor mix-up with one of my hotels and arranged for a special surprise on my birthday. I cannot speak highly enough of Maria's professionalism, follow-through, positivity, attention to detail and responsiveness. I highly recommend Goway and Maria for your travel plans, and will definitely use this company again for my future travels. Thank you so much for making my trip to Portugal so memorable, Maria!

Extremely delighted we took this trip to Bali with Goway. Ameet was fantastic. He helped me save on my flights and also guided me on the right hotel decisions. Extremely Charming and always a pleasure to chat to. We enjoyed the Komodo islands a lot thanks to our specialist who made the recommendation. Hid guidance on the places and restaurants was spot on and we and my gf enjoyed the trip so much. We will consider using Goway and Ameet for our Honeymoon as well.Garth Cutos

Touching base after our trip. As usual you did a great job helping plan and execute an amazing travel experience!! Everything was fantastic. Especially our hotel location. Since it's connected to the Victoria station it made getting around very easy. Thanks again for your help I'm sure we'll be booking our next trip soon...Leigh Ferris

We recently completed a trip to Crete, Greece - our third trip with GoWay - and I have run out of superlatives to laud their efforts. This was a self drive trip, and as has been our experience with GoWay, we were permitted to customize the standard offered itinerary to suit our personal preferences. Brooke, our agent on this trip, went the extra mile to make all the adjustments we requested, including providing for an English-speaking guide at the Phaistos archeological site. The hotels which Brooke booked on our behalf were truly excellent, and - again, per our wish - just outside of the urban chaos of Heraklion, Rethymno and Chania, but close enough to readily access the cities' benefits. Each hotel was a beachside sanctuary, and we spent several serene, idyllic days never leaving the hotel, and yet there was plenty of time for more distant and adventurous sight seeing. I cannot overstate how happy we have been with our GoWay experiences - most notably in their willingness to listen to our preferences and make those manifest in the itinerary - and this most recent trip just confirms our already positive opinion of GoWay, and we will be certain to consider them again for our next travel adventure.Frank Venuti

Venessa Lloyd at GoWay organized a trip to Africa for us- We just returned last week. It was very well organized and included everything we requested, and more. We did two safaris - one in Tanzania and one in South Africa. They were both excellent, with first class accommodations and guides. We absolutely would recommend GoWay and Vanessa to anyone. Sandra

Overall, the hotel and tours were amazing. We had issues with communicating with the driver. At times I was asked where, I was gone. The local company handled the situation and there were minor issues after. I would recommend a local English-speaking guide every day. My clients loved the trip. The area we stayed in had many restaurants and local markets nearby. I recommend the cooking class, flamenco dance show, wine tasting and taps tour, and the city tour. Jolynn Tizeno

Ani M was absolutely amazing to work with! I actually chose Goway for our group trip because of her recommendations. She was the only agent who took the time to explain that we really needed to split our travels into two separate trips if we wanted to experience everything on our wish list, and I really appreciated her honesty and guidance. Throughout the planning process, Ani was incredibly helpful and answered ALL of my questions, even when I asked the same ones more than once! She was patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. I enjoyed working with her and her team so much that I already have another group trip planned with her, and I expect we'll be planning another one soon! The guides during our Scotland trip were wonderful as well. Ian Short was the BEST! He was professional, knowledgeable, and made sure everything ran smoothly so we could simply enjoy the experience. He even worked in sightseeing stops we didn't know we needed to see, and those little extras made the trip even better. The entire experience was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. I'm already looking forward to our next adventure to Ireland with Goway and working with Ani and their team again!Angela Butler
