Amazing cuteness overload train..even though went so early 6.22 from Taipei but as sanrio lover I was so delightful . They gave u breakfast unlimited drinks all in sanrio themed. And the attractive activities like seeking for picture in order to get souvenir...n also hv a karaoke room....a really really must try for sanrio lovers🥰
Boarded at Taichung and got off at Tainan. Lived up to its hype! Only hiccup was the misunderstanding at the beginning. When the train rolled up, i asked the staff standing outside the car door if it was okay to board already and he waved me away. I sat back down for a minute and then decided to show him my ticket. Upon seeing that, he let me through. They gave me a cup of water and a cookie once inside. The seats were spacious and super comfortable. Through the whole ride, you are free to get up and explore the other cars. At the front are two karaoke cars plus a kind of reception area where i was told about a free item i could redeem if i followed their instructions. Another freebie was a wrist strap that you could design yourself. I believe this was in two different cars towards the front as well. Well-worth the price! Willing to do this again next time!
Island Star - Sanrio Family Train(Lovely Journey) ,Excellent train service and experience. The Formosa Express is the top-recommended train for exploring Taiwan, offering luxury, scenic, and comfortable rail tours across this beautiful island.
Longer duration train ride from Kaohsiung to Taipei on TRA theme train. Worth the time spent. Free drinks throughout - non alcoholic. Happy hour for unlimited beer. One meal provided. Onboard karaoke for passengers use. Theme merchandise, cutlery, cup, cup holders, napkins and wet tissues. So much more fun for the family and kids. Clean train cabin and better looking chairs. Comfortable 5 hours and 14 minutes ride just for the experience.
Underrated experience in Taiwan! We chose the Sanrio train to travel back to Taipei station. No meals onboard (because Taichung is just hours away) but they do provide unlimited drinks, some snacks and free karaoke (in Mandarin) . thanks klook!

Extremely quiet and everybody was really happy to be on the train so the atmosphere was wonderful with passengers and staff all being very friendly. Please note that there are no 'arranged activities' or beer available on the 6am train from Taipei to Taichung as these begin later in the day, so the later trains may offer better value. my journey 2hrs flew by and I would have happily stayed longer. The panoramic windows are big and very clean so you get great views and can take good photos. Walk around the while train to see it and pick up extra drinks and stamps at the drinks/karaoke/hello kitty cars. Boarding at Taipei was easy. The train is listed as "Special" on the electronic board and the platform is given. We showed our e-ticket to the guard however he wasn't sure that it was a ticket but when we explained we had been told this was our e-ticket he let us through. Perhaps if you travel later in the day or the day before it is worth trying to collect a paper ticket to have as a souvenir.
I took this train from Xinzuoying to Chiayi. the journey was 1 hour+ and it is not enough for me! i really like the train. please make sure you wait at the correct car according to your ticket because at some station, train only stops for 2 minutes... i hope more people will notice this train when they travel to taiwan. my c0de: ehmirayy.
it was the best train experience i ever had. i am a solo traveller so when i booke they gave me the single 260 rotating seat. the staff, the toilets , the games everything was perfect. a small tip_ the rear end of the train is pwrfect spot to take videos and pictures ...it usually is not crowdes.
We had an enjoyable experience with formosa train. The 2 hours trip was really short for this experience. We loved the food and the activity inside the train.
