Tohto Hypersonic November 14, 2016 Share November 14, 2016 i google the name and saw many recommendations, but not him. the guy i engage dun go by day and not THE driver. i will first draft out my itinerary and places that we wish to go, he will then plan the route and give suggestions. we are comfortable to even let him arrange the accommodation. Hence the quote was by per pax (all inclusive except food & entrance ticket if any). For me part of the fun for F & E start from the research work. Searching for hotel, planning route and place of interest. What food to eat etc....My daughter will sit down with me to do the research together. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What food to eat etc.... My daughter will sit down with me to do the research together. we have been doing self plan/drive for many years, but age catching up. also when traveling by ourselves, we may not get the full info of the local history and culture. i am getting busy lately in other work outside my office hours, plus need to make arrangemrnt for my son trip to HK in early Jan, me and wife also have another travel plan in early Jan [sweatdrop] i rather be the passive traveler and let other service me [laugh] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mivec79 6th Gear November 15, 2016 Share November 15, 2016 My family of total 5 pax will be going taiwan in Dec. Itinaery will be 台北-清境-阿里山-花莲-台北. Should I drive? Really appreciate feedbacks on this issue. Taking HSR is pretty ex for 5 pax and hiring driver is not cheap either. Bro I drove from kaoshiung to alishan early this year One thing to take note is when drive from the foot of alishan to the top can be quite tiring especially if you are the only driver Trust me it is much more tiring than going up to gentng Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
