Description

Make the most of your layover in Taiwan with a private 8-hour tour that takes you through Taipei’s cultural landmarks and the picturesque mountain town of Jiufen. Start with the vibrant streets of Ximending, followed by a visit to Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall and the iconic Taipei 101. End your day with a scenic journey to Jiufen, where you’ll experience Taiwan’s famous tea culture in an atmospheric hillside town. Begin your tour at Ximending, Taipei’s vibrant shopping and youth culture district. Known as the “Harajuku of Taipei,” this pedestrian zone is filled with fashion boutiques, street food stalls, themed cafes, and quirky pop culture. It’s the perfect place to get a feel for modern local life and do some light shopping or snacking. Next, visit the iconic Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, featuring traditional Chinese architecture, expansive plazas, and a solemn memorial to Taiwan’s former president. Don't miss the grand staircase, the main hall’s bronze statue, and the ceremonial changing of the guards (hourly from 9 AM to 5 PM). Continue to Taipei 101, once the tallest building in the world. Explore the upscale shopping mall and food court, or opt to ride the world’s fastest elevator to the 89th-floor observatory for sweeping views of Taipei and its surrounding landscapes. Finally, step into the nostalgic mountain town of Jiufen, known for its narrow alleys, red lanterns, and teahouses overlooking the Pacific. Originally a gold mining town, it’s now a beloved destination for traditional snacks, souvenirs, and scenic views. Enjoy the peaceful charm of this historic hillside village before heading back to the airport. P.S. The sequence may be adjusted based on your chosen departure time.
