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.

We have used Goway several times to plan simple & more complicated trips. The last 2 trips we worked with Brooke Theron who is extremely customer focused. She listens well & is alway flexible to look at alternatives. We will continue using this representative & Goway. Our only criticism is that they do not break down the various costs of a trip which makes tipping very awkward. It can also create a sense of " mistrust" when all the costs are not transparent.

Our trip to Switzerland was an amazing experience. Our travel agent at GoWay, Bo was so helpful in helping my husband Louie plan just what we wanted to do on this trip. Taking the trains thru the county was easy by the many hours Louie and Bo worked on this. Also our helicopter ride in Zermatt on my birthday was just unbelievable. Flying around the Matterhorn and the Alps is one flight we will never forget. Thanks Bo for setting this up. The trip was one incredible adventure that we will never forget. Thanks again Bo, Lynn Gerber. Lynn Gerber

We booked a Goway tour to Botswana and Zimbabwe and it was excellent.  We worked with Brooke, the Goway represntative, to set up the tour and she was an outstanding agent who answered any questions we had very quickly and completely. Her hotel recommendation for the additional night we stayed was pefect.   Goway hires a local tour group, Jenman Safaris, to lead the safari in the 2 countries. The tour itself was amazing...the lodges that we stayed at were very nice and the food was great (except for one lodge's food). The Goway itinerary was slightly different than the actual Jenman Safari itinerary but most of the sites that we went to were the same as listed on the Goway itinerary. I would use Goway again because their choice of a local tour group was very good...nice lodges/camps and good food and knowledgeable tour guides.Ma Fa

Matthew handled my honeymoon couple's very specific African itinerary like a pro! My clients went to four different travel agents who only wanted to send them on safaris. My clients had already done safaris and were specific on what they wanted to do and see. Matthew hit the nail on the head! Highly recommend!Amanda Schott

Jacqueline F. made our trip exceptional. Everything she planned or reserved worked out as it was supposed to. Croatia was amazing and I feel we were able to explore a lot of it because of Jacqueline.Allen

This was the first time we had utilized Goway. We wanted a custom itinerary for a 3 week Italy, Athens and Greek Island adventure. Edwina Brislane was receptive to our goals for the trip, had helpful suggestions and reacted well to our requested revisions. Lisa Dachuk helped "tie a ribbon" on the trip and ensured we had considered all aspects of the experience. Lisa dealt quickly with a couple of requests while on the trip and celebrated a successful trip with us. We enjoyed working with both Edwina and Lisa. Their knowledge and enthusiasm contributed to our very memorable trip.Dan & Gail
