Taipei Travel Forum

Hello!

I need advice!!! We ( 5 people from 22 to 68 years old) are staying in Taipei from the 9th till the 11th February 2009. And I wanted to ask all of you what will be the best to do in those 3 days so we really get an idea of Taiwanese living culture. We want to see as much as we can!!Please please give me as much information as possible!

thanks in advance!

PS: We are staying at TA SHUN HOTEL.

Hi,
You can do a great Taipei City tour by yourself by using the MRT and bus system.

However if you want to see a bit of Taiwanese culture and countryside, It would be best to hire a tour cab: A highly recommended cabbie is Meeky Yang. He has a "Wish" Cab and can seat all of you comfortably. Contact directly:

You can contact Mr Meeky Yang @ 09-2191-5586 or meeky589@yahoo.com.tw. You can send email in English.

I have booked him for my taipei trip later this month. In my email to him, I indicated that I will be going to Yeliu, Shifen, Jiufen, BiTou Jiao, Keelung. He said that he will charge me NT$3000, from 8.30am to 8.30pm.

P.S. People at Ta Shun can vouch for Mr. Yang as a lot of their guests have used his services. My son stayed there for a week , last week.

Thank you so much! Best regards from Vienna!
