What to expect

As any visitor to Taipei knows, the quaint and historic hillside village of Jiufen is arguably the number one place to visit near Taipei. But it's not the most convenient place to get to - until now! Avoid the slow buses and expensive taxis, and book this extremely convenient return day trip transfer - the Jiufen shuttle bus from Ximen - for a discounted price! Stop off at Shifen along the way to decorate a paper lantern and make a wish as it floats into the sky. Then stroll the cobbled alleys of Jiufen lined with glowing red lanterns, browse for souvenirs, eat local taro desserts or settle in to a traditional teahouse and take it all in. This isn't a guided tour, so you're free to enjoy Jiufen on your own time. What's more, you'll even get the chance to meet like-minded travelers on the bus journey. It really is the best way to get to Jiufen from Taipei!

Review for: 1:30pm 버스

It was convenient, time-saving, and good to use a tour product to famous tourist attractions. If you want to go to each of the famous tourist attractions, you have to find out each bus route and plan your route, but they take care of everything and you can just do what you need to do, so I think it is useful to use a tour product like this.

Review for: 9:30am Shuttle Bus

We really enjoyed our day tour to Jiufen and Shifen! Me and my husband find it hassle-free to book this activity than to make our own itinerary to discover the northeastern part of Taiwan. The bus came on time, it is clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the ambiance of the places we visited and the activities we did on this trip. Thanks to our tour guide for that day and thank you Klook!

The chief guide is very cute. Well taken care of, no flaws at all. Always counting people to see if anyone is missing. or not by appointment? It's easy to meet up at Xiangmen Market in the heart of Taipei. Trying to speak Thai to pretend to play with. We go during the period when Thai people travel to Taiwan a lot. Most importantly, they are very punctual, very disciplined, and other fellow travelers are also very good.

Review for: 1:30 PM 出發

When I go to the local area, I decided to join first. It’s really convenient to get on the train and get off the train and go sightseeing. The tour guides are so enthusiastic and will take the initiative to ask for help. I remember that the day was so hot and the hardest to go to the waterfall and buried in Jiufen. Join group I think I will not force the car to Jiufen! But I don’t think time is enough for it to be Jiufen! There are already a lot of people who want to go up to the highest view and the scenery is actually half the time, unless you don’t eat the wild, if you don’t really have to go up and down, it will be enough time to get on the bus. But next time you have the opportunity to go to Taiwan, you will join the same Because it’s so convenient, don’t arrange transportation by yourself, so I can spend a day wanting to go to ge scenic spots👍🏻

If you’ve watched Spirited Away, then the ambiance of this place will help you reminisce that popular animation from Studio Ghibli. Try to go here on weekdays because it’s super packed on weekends. This place is far from the city so it’s best if you will avail of a tour so it won’t be much of a hassle in commuting. And thanks to Klook for an organized and affordable tour!
