My Taiwan Travel Resources

Here is a list of websites that I check out before traveling, in this case for Taiwan. Hope it is as useful to you as it has been to me thus far.

All websites stated on this page are sites that I have used. If you have any other highlights or must-have tips of your own that you'll like to share, please leave a comment below. ^^

💙 Reviews / Ideas / Research / Resources 💙

TripAdvisor: The reviews and forums are pretty useful. Just take the extremely good or bad reviews with a pinch of salt. 😛
VirtualTourist: The occasion review or forum post to get a better gauge on what to do and expect.
WikiTravel: Provides a nice and easy to read overview of the country you are going to visit and what to expect.

💘 Airlines 💘

Eva Air: If you want to travel on a themed flight to Taipei (e.g. Hello Kitty) , then you can consider taking this airline. The prices are similar to Singapore Air.
Jetstar: Pretty affordable prices to nearby destinations like Taiwan, Australia etc… [Jetstar Reviews]
Singapore Airlines: If you have confirmed your flight dates and are pretty sure there will be no changes to those dates, buying the tickets a couple of months before can save you a lot especially if they have special on going promotions. Though the tickets tend to be on the pricier side, it is worth the money for those long international flights.

💛 Sites for accommodation/flights and comparison 💛

Hotellook: Provides a good overview of all accommodation rates from booking sites like booking.com, expedia etc… Great resource for a quick comparison of the various rates across the web for hotels and picking out the cheapest one.
Zuji: Gives a good overview view and estimate of air flight rates as well as accommodation. The results can be used to be compared with those from Hotellook in your decision making process.
