Taiwanese show little enthusiasm for regional tours

The Taiwanese public has been lukewarm about travel to Central America, despite a variety of attractive packages, travel agents said yesterday.

It remains hard to sell any Central or South America tour packages due to local people’s unfamiliarity with the region, which is a relatively expensive travel destination.

“Our ‘Mayan doomsday package’ was canceled because we did not have enough people to form a group,” said Lion Travel’s Mark Yen, who is responsible for developing the company’s markets for the region.
