Taiwan trip ideas

If you’re short on time but want to go big on Taiwan, this 10-day trip is a whistle-stop tour of the island’s food, culture and landscapes. From Taipei’s night markets to the forested hills of Alishan, then on to Tainan’s old streets – you’ll get a real sense of the country without feeling like you’re simply skimming the surface.

Night markets and hot springs, then bikes, beaches, and a proper hit of mountains, lakes, rivers and gorges. This trip is for people who want Taiwan’s highlights, but then the places that locals love and most visitors miss.

This trip combines two of Asia’s most underrated countries – Taiwan and South Korea. Hit the headline cities, hike in expansive countryside, eat tonnes of street food and relax in hot springs. Think of this as the best bits of Taiwan and South Korea on one well-paced route.

Tiered tea fields, slumbering volcanoes, world class dining – is this Japan or Taiwan? It’s both. This itinerary shows you some of the best of these East Asian island nations.

Hoping to get a taste of Taiwan in less than a week? This trip idea sets out the best of Taipei and northern Taiwan in only five nights. Plenty of time to get beneath the surface of Taiwan’s capital and its surroundings.

Luxury Taiwan showcases the best this little island has to offer with the highest class stays, transport options, food and cultural experiences. Relax in your private high mountain hot spring bath, stroll through cultivated tea plantations, watch the sunset over the salt flats and tuck into xiao long bao at the famed Din Tai Fung.

Overflowing with markets, theme parks and novel forms of transport, Hong Kong could have been designed for family holidays.
