Itinerario
Situato nel distretto di Wanli, nella città di Nuova Taipei, come una delle principali attrazioni della costa settentrionale di Taiwan, il Geoparco di Yehliu ospita una serie di formazioni rocciose uniche causate dal vento e dal mare, come le rocce dei funghi, la roccia a scacchiera, le tracce fossili e tutto il resto.
La formazione rocciosa più famosa è l’iconica “Queen’s Head”, una roccia a fungo che ricorda il profilo della regina Elisabetta d’Inghilterra. Ogni anno, lo “Yehliu Night Tour” offre spettacoli di luci, proiezioni d’acqua, ecc., attirando oltre diecimila visitatori per vedere la Testa della Regina illuminata di notte. Oltre alla Testa della Regina, altre formazioni notevoli come le Candele del Mare, la Scarpa delle Fate, le Rocce dello Zenzero, la Roccia dell’Elefante, la Roccia del Gelato, la Roccia del Bacio e la Testa della Principessa, meritano di essere visitate.
Jiufen è un villaggio collinare nel distretto di Ruifang, New Taipei City. Il villaggio fiorì negli anni '40 a causa dell'industria mineraria dell'oro, per poi cadere in rovina e decrepitezza per anni. Anche se l'età dell'oro è passata da tempo, questo piccolo villaggio ha ancora molte storie da raccontare. Lì è stato girato il film premiato "A City of Sadness", diretto dal famoso regista Hou Hsiao-Hsien. Il suo background storico unico, l'atmosfera malinconica ed emotiva ha attirato un'enorme attenzione globale. Il successo del film ha anche portato vitalità al turismo di Jiufen, rendendola la destinazione più popolare nel nord-est di Taiwan. Dato che sei a Jiufen, ti consigliamo di prendere una tazza di tè in una casa da tè, dove puoi apprezzare lo scenario pittoresco e il tè appena preparato allo stesso tempo. Oltre alle case da tè, qui puoi anche assaggiare vari cibi locali e acquistare souvenir. Se hai un debole per i dolci, non perderti il tradizionale dessert Jiufen: la palla di taro!
Situata nel distretto di Pingxi, nella città di Nuova Taipei, la cascata di Shifen è una delle attrazioni più popolari di questa zona, ampiamente conosciuta come la “Piccola Cascata del Niagara” di Taiwan, una cascata di tipo cascata simile alle cascate del Niagara del Nord America.
Ci sono diverse piattaforme panoramiche vicino alla cascata di Shifen, dove i visitatori possono vedere la cascata da diverse angolazioni, anche avere uno sguardo ravvicinato. Nelle giornate di sole, se si è fortunati, si può catturare un bellissimo arcobaleno creato dalla nebbia di questa cascata alta 20 metri mentre si getta nel lago.
La stazione di Shifen si trova lungo il fiume Keelung dall'area delle cascate, originariamente costruita per il trasporto di carbone durante la colonizzazione giapponese. La stazione si trova proprio accanto a Shifen Old Street, oggi si erge a ricordo della storia di Taiwan. La strada è fiancheggiata da negozi di souvenir, lanterne celesti e ristoranti. Puoi anche vedere molte persone sistemare le lanterne del cielo sui binari ferroviari, preparandosi a rilasciarle nel cielo. Naturalmente, non perderai l'occasione di vivere questa tradizione speciale. 3 o 4 persone condivideranno una lanterna e ognuno di voi potrà scrivere i propri desideri su un lato della lanterna. La tua guida ti insegnerà come rilasciare correttamente una lanterna del cielo, così potrai goderti appieno il momento tranquillo e pacifico.
Sulla via del ritorno al nostro punto d'incontro, puoi scegliere di essere lasciato a Taipei 101.

Very comfortable tour. Molly our guide, and Vince our driver did a fine job. The geopark was awesome, Jiufen was a charming town to explore. The waterfall was very nice, I could have passed on the lantern launching.
The tour was very good, the guide David is amazing. He provides all the information and make the tour very enjoyable

It was really fun! I definitely recommend it. Our tour guide, Chiara, was really informative and fun. She was so sweet and helpful. Our favorite part was the waterfall. Just make sure to wear sunscreen because there is some walking. The lantern part was okay. As cute and fun as it was, it was not environmentally friendly. We saw lots of the discarded lanterns up in the trees and the nature area. It’s a cute idea though.

We'll be sure to share your kind words with her—they'll mean a lot! We're especially glad you loved the waterfall. We also appreciate your thoughtful feedback about the lantern activity.

Good trip, taking you to places that are hard to reach by public transport. Handsome Kevin was a great guide - lots of facts and jokes to keep the whole bus engaged

I booked this small group tour for my family including pre-teens. We had a great time! James was our guide. Our driver was excellent too. James was so knowledgeable, patient and organized. We learned a lot about the fascinating history of Taiwan and the sites we visited. There were restrooms at each stop and a chance to grab some great food. One of the best meals on our trip was a little noodle shop in Jiufen- lots of spots to get treats for people back home. The stops were stunning, from the otherworldly geopark to the mountains and waterfall. The kids loved the lantern stop. A consideration: think of booking on a rainy day or don't cancel for rain- we picked up some cute raincoats at the first stop and enjoyed a calmer experience. There was almost no wait at the Queen's Head and the moody sky pics without so many people were perfect, Jiufen had light crowds, the waterfall was more spectacular with the additional rainwater and there was no wait for lanterns. Highly recommend the tour!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that your family had such a great time with James and our driver. We'll be sure to share your kind words with them.

Our tour guide Kia was so friendly and helpful. The pickup location was easy to find. Drop off was at Taipei 101 or the same spot we met at. Bus driver always kept the AC cranking because it was so hot. It’s a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes. All the locations were beautiful and I’m so glad we got to see more of Taiwan. Bring cash! Most places don’t take card here!

Personalized, friendly, delicious food at Vegetarian restaurant. Gary was knowledgeable. Suggested activities that were unique.
This was a fantastic tour, aided by cooperative weather. Mr. Su (aka "handsome kevin") did a great job narrating (but also giving people a chance to chat, rest, or enjoy the scenery), shepherding us around, and not being overbearing in marketing. The early start to the tour was well worth it as we seemed to beat (to some extent) crowds at all places. Sites were great--enjoyed all--and the amount of time allocating to each and the tour length overall was good. The lantern lighting was a special experience. Communication with the operator was a little slow at times, but a minor issue. This tour would not be good for small children or individuals with mobility issues. Tour bus could be upgraded (seats narrow and no plugs), but otherwise was comfortable and bus driver drove safely.
