A Perfect Day

My guide, Henry, was the best. He has extensive knowledge of the city and went out of his way to be sure I had a great experience. He succeeded. His timing was perfect for activities like the hourly changing of the guard at the National Revolutionary Martyrs’ Shrine. He is an expert at taking memorable photos and positioned me for the best shots imaginable, and he enhanced my knowledge of the city and the country immeasurably. Highly recommended.

I am certain this is not the correct spelling, but Hax-on was incredible!!!! We had an amazing experience on a very short visit to Taiwan. He gave us a great understanding of the history, the food, the main attractions and the friendliness of Taiwan. I even booked the wrong airport and he flipped around to come take us to the right one, checking on us the entire way.

Yangmingshan National Park

Edison tours is an excellent tour company. Teresa greeted me at the meet point when she saw me walk up, I did not have to ask her. Teresa is great. Jenny, my tour guide was very knowledgeable. She is from Taipei and knew the history of the places we visited from personal experience. Jenny pointed out sites in the Yangmingshan National Park that I would never have seen on my own, or with any other tour group. I recommend Viator and Edison tours to everyone!

A great way to explore Taiwan

A wonderful way to explore Taiwan outside of Taipei. Alan was the best guide you could ask for. He was extremely funny and had great recommendations and fun facts about everywhere we went. The hotels were comfortable and some of them had hot springs available, which was a big bonus.
