Tai Pan Tours is a Toronto, Ontario-based operator with global reach. Established in 1989, the company grew from an Asian-oriented tour operator to a major player in the tourism sector in southern Ontario. In 2005, company President and CEO, Mr. Francis Wat, announced that it would establish its Asia Pacific headquarters in Hong Kong,[1] which marked the company's expansion outside of Canada.
