What you can expect

  • Discover two of Taiwan's most iconic destinations in one unforgettable journey—Shifen and Jiufen.

    After departing from Taipei, your first stop is Shifen Old Street, a charming railway town filled with nostalgic atmosphere. Enjoy approximately 60–80 minutes to explore the lively streets, taste local snacks, and experience Taiwan's famous sky lantern activity. Write your wishes on a colorful lantern and watch it rise into the sky, creating a memorable moment unique to Taiwan. Don't forget to capture photos of the trains passing through the old street, one of Shifen's most famous sights.

    Next, travel to the picturesque mountain village of Jiufen, one of Taiwan's most popular attractions. Spend around 3 hours exploring its narrow alleyways lined with traditional shops, tea houses, and delicious street food. Sample local specialties, shop for souvenirs, or relax with a cup of Taiwanese tea while enjoying breathtaking views of the mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Depending on the time of day, you'll experience either beautiful daytime scenery or the magical atmosphere created by Jiufen's glowing red lanterns.

    From making wishes in Shifen to wandering through the timeless streets of Jiufen, this tour perfectly combines Taiwan's culture, history, and stunning landscapes. With plenty of free time at each destination, you can explore at your own pace and create unforgettable travel memories.
