FAQs
A: The most iconic route includes Yehliu Geopark (famous for the Queen’s Head rock formation), the scenic Shifen Waterfall, releasing sky lanterns at Shifen Old Street, and the lantern-lit teahouses of Jiufen Old Street. Depending on your interests, we can also include Golden Waterfall, Yin Yang Sea, or Houtong Cat Village.
A: Yes, absolutely. Our private charter service is 100% flexible. You decide the stops, pickup times, and how long you want to spend at each attraction. Our experienced English-speaking driver-guide will adjust the route dynamically based on traffic and weather to ensure a smooth, relaxed journey.
A: Yes, we prioritize comfortable and accessible travel. While Jiufen Old Street has traditional stone stairs, our driver provides drop-offs and pick-ups as close to key entrances as possible to minimize uphill walking. Stops like Yehliu Geopark feature paved, barrier-free boardwalks suitable for all travelers. Please note that Shifen Waterfall involves multiple flights of stairs, so we recommend skipping the waterfall trail for guests using wheelchairs, strollers, or those with limited mobility, and focusing instead on flat, easy-to-explore stops like Shifen Old Street.
A: A standard private tour typically lasts 9 to 10 hours. This provides ample time to cover 3 to 4 major attractions along the coast, enjoy local street delicacies in Jiufen, and return comfortably to your hotel in Taipei without rushing.
A: The northern coast frequently experiences passing showers, but rain won’t stop the adventure. Our vehicles are always equipped with umbrellas for your convenience. Alternatively, you can easily purchase disposable raincoats at local shops to continue exploring outdoor spots, or simply discuss with your driver-guide on the day to switch to cozy indoor alternatives, such as historic teahouses in Jiufen, local museums, or sheltered coastal viewing points.
A: We offer door-to-door hotel pick-up and drop-off across Taipei City. We can also arrange pickup or drop-off at Keelung Cruise Port or Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) upon request.
