The Experience
Before You Go
Plan a Priority List
Pick 2–3 must-see stops to avoid excessive transit time; the guide can add nearby extras if time allows.

Smaller markets, temple offerings, and some food stalls accept cash only—bring small bills.
Watch the Weather & Typhoon Season
Taiwan’s northeast coast is exposed to storms; if typhoon warnings appear you’ll need to reschedule and follow local safety advice.
Reserve Child Seats Ahead
One child seat is included—note infant details when booking to ensure proper restraint.

Conservation Note
Stick to marked paths in sensitive coastal and mountain zones, avoid single-use plastics, and follow guide instructions to minimize impact on fragile rock formations and temple areas.
Many northeast coastal towns grew during the Japanese-era mining boom; Jiufen and Jinguashi retain mining relics and narrow lanes that reflect that industrial past.
