Hi all, I'm planning a 8 days family trip (2A2C) to taiwan and got a few itinerary after asking a few agencies. may i know:
1. if any of these itinerary fit into my budget of $5000 excluding airfares and meals?
2. which areas can be taken out or downgrade to match the budget?
3. what is a realistic budget if i insist on going for these itineraries?
