Hard to find where to meet the van in the airport arrivals level, but a comfortable and convenient ride to the hotel. Far cheaper than a taxi and a limo. Good value.

Istanbul Airport Private Departure Transfer

Istanbul, Turkey

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review
The agent was waiting for me after leaving the luggage pick up area with a sign of my name and the van ride to my hotel was comfortable. The cost was slightly less than a taxi and more convenient, especially with being so tired.

Private Tour: Istanbul in One Day Sightseeing Tour including Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace

Istanbul, Turkey

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review
Wonderful way to learn about and see these antiquities. All my questions answered promptly as I was alone and I saw things for only as long as I wanted to. Would recommend over a group tour. Interesting and knowledgeable guide, fluent English, discussed a lot about current politics, culture and religion.

Excellent and convenient. No waiting and no hassles. Much appreciated as I arrived so tired. About the same cost as a taxi. Well worth it.

Chiufen Village (Jiufen) and Northeast Coast Half-Day Tour from Taipei

Taipei, Taiwan

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review
Interesting village to tour through. Did not include the local museum. Could have easily spent a bit more time driving around the north shore or combining it with their other trip that focuses on the north shore. It would probably only add an extra hour to the trip.

Taroko Gorge Full-Day Tour from Taipei

Taipei, Taiwan

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review
If you only have 1 day to spare, this is a great trip to see some of the countryside and how the non city people live. You fly there from Taipei and return by train unfortunately most of the train ride was after dark and the scenery was probably spectacular. The gorge is beautiful but all the trails off the main road were closed to walkers because of rain for a few days. I understand they had a small landslide recently that injured a tourist. The tour ended at a marble factory with a huge retail store of jade and marble jewelry and sculptures. It is the largest selection I saw in Taiwan and prices are negotiable. Hard to say though if the final price is cheaper here that what you would get in Taipei.
