Itinerary

Admission not included60 min

Picture this: a skyscraper so tall, it's practically waving hello to the clouds! Taipei 101 isn't just a building; it's the Beyoncé of towers, towering over the competition like a giant among ants. With an elevator that zooms up faster than your morning coffee kicks in, and views that'll make your jaw drop faster than a bad punchline, it's a must-see marvel that'll have you saying "101 reasons why I love Taipei!"

90 min

Step into history and grandeur at the iconic Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall! Unlike any other landmark, it's not just a monument—it's a living testament to Taiwan's rich heritage and political legacy. Marvel at the imposing architecture, immerse yourself in the serene gardens, and witness the changing of the guard ceremony—a spectacle that'll leave you in awe. With us, it's not just a visit; it's an unforgettable journey through time and culture.

60 min

Visiting Confucius Temple serves as a center for promoting Confucianism and traditional Chinese culture. You can explore the beautifully landscaped gardens, admire the architectural details, and gain insights into Confucian philosophy.

90 min

For foodies, Dihua Street is a culinary haven, offering a wide array of traditional Taiwanese snacks, street food, and local delicacies. You can indulge in mouth-watering treats like oyster omelets, braised pork rice, and traditional pastries, providing a delightful culinary experience.

60 min

Step into a world where ancient traditions meet modern marvels at Longshan Temple, Taipei's crown jewel of spiritual beauty! With its intricate architecture, centuries-old history, and vibrant atmosphere, Longshan Temple isn't just a sight to see—it's a journey through time. From its ornate rooftops to the tranquil courtyards, every corner holds a story waiting to be discovered. Come experience the heartbeat of Taipei's cultural soul and see why Longshan Temple is a must-visit destination unlike any other!

60 min

Walking into Bopiliao Historical Block is like walking into a movie set where the director yelled “action” about 200 years ago and never yelled “cut.” The bricks are weathered into deep shades of red and orange, and the afternoon sun bounces off them like warm light in a period drama. Every corner seems to tell a story, merchants selling herbs, families cooking behind carved wooden windows, a paper lantern swaying slightly in the breeze. Of course, now you might see a couple taking wedding photos in front of those same walls, or a tourist (hi, that’s me) stopping every 5 feet to stare at the texture of a doorframe. Bopiliao doesn’t try to impress you with flash. It’s more like an old friend telling you a good story, one detail at a time.

We’re delighted to hear that you had such a great experience exploring Taipei and that your driver-guide was knowledgeable, personable, and attentive to the places on your list. We’re sorry the rain kept you from visiting a couple of stops during the tour, but we’re glad you were able to see one of your bucket-list places the next day. It’s also wonderful to hear that the National Palace Museum was such a highlight. Thank you again for your kind recommendation.

Great guiding in Tapei!

Jackie is an excellent guide. He knows all in and out and proceeded a 8 hours tour directly from airport pick up to a good lunch place and bubble tea with great pace and experience. His photography is also remarkable. We were lucky!

Fantastic trip. Could not have been better!

An was our tour guide, she reached out days in advance to set things up. She took us everywhere and took pictures for us. In 1 day we saw everything in that area. Perfect trip other than the weather.

Great day in Taipei with super guide

We had a really nice day in Taipei with our guide Jennifer. She explained everything very understandably and interestingly, was always patient and answered every question. The tour was perfectly tailored to us. We were particularly impressed by the Temple of Confucius and the Temple of Longshan – before we hardly knew anything about Confucianism and Daoism, now we have a really good overview. The pace was also pleasant, with a relaxed coffee break in between. Everything was well organized, the car comfortable and communication in advance uncomplicated. Overall, a great experience, which we are happy to recommend.

Operator response

Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Bewertung und die netten Worte. Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass Sie einen so schönen Tag in Taipeh mit Jennifer verbracht haben. Besonders schön ist es zu wissen, dass Jennifers Erklärungen zu Konfuzianismus und Daoismus für Sie verständlich, interessant und bereichernd waren. Der Konfuzius-Tempel und der Longshan-Tempel sind wirklich besondere Orte, und wir freuen uns, dass sie zu den Höhepunkten Ihres Tages gehörten. Ebenso freut es uns, dass Ihnen das angenehme Tempo der Tour, die entspannte Kaffeepause sowie der Komfort des Fahrzeugs gefallen haben und alles reibungslos organisiert war. Vielen Dank auch für Ihre Weiterempfehlung. Wir werden Ihr tolles Feedback sehr gern an Jennifer weitergeben. Wir hoffen, Sie eines Tages wieder in Taipeh begrüßen zu dürfen!

Excellent experience!

This was an amazing day deftly coordinated by our guide/driver. We saw so much in a short period of time but never felt rushed. History, local culture, customs, and context were shared at each stop with a personal touch. Our personal requests were cheerfully accommodated and additional recommendations for our guide enhanced our experience. We'd asked to go to a local place for lunch, and it was an excellent experience. I booked (50's female) and drug along my two teen sons (18, 14) and all of us thoroughly enjoyed the day. Over the last several weeks we've done tours in Seoul, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Kyoto, etc., and this was by far the best. I cannot recommend it enough!

Private driving tour

We had an excellent full-day private driving tour of Taipei and highly recommend it. Our guide Eddy was professional, friendly, fluent in English and knowledgeable, and made the entire day enjoyable and stress-free. He showed us a mix of major highlights and local spots, shared interesting history and made sure everything was comfortable and well-paced. It was an excellent way to see Taipei in a short amount of time.
