I had fun exploring Southern Taiwan with this 3 day pass. Very easy to use, it comes with a booklet that you'll get from the HSR counter. You can book your HSR in advance through the website, can even change your time of departure when you go to the counter. My accomodation is in Taipei and the day trips in Taichung and Tainan was just a breeze. HSR also provides free shuttle bus between HSR station to the main city, just research for the bus number. You have to go through the staff at the gates to pass through, they will inspect the booklet. I'll comeback to explore more of South Taiwan!

Traveling to Tainan from 115.2.14-2/15, I chose this place because it's a three-minute walk from Tainan Railway Station in the direction of 7-Eleven. It was my first time renting a scooter service through Klook, and I didn't quite understand the options on the system. The service at the starting point store was very kind and patient. You can tell that the store has served a diverse range of customers. Although the store's location is not very close to the train station, I told them it was my first time buying through the system, and the staff kindly explained the interface to me again. I really appreciate the store's explanation. I understood that there are several stores listed on it, and they are collaborating to operate on Klook, which is great.
Cleanliness: Good
Service: Friendly and attentive
Vehicle condition: Good, and the scooter has a phone holder, which is very helpful when you need to search for directions on your phone. The scooter itself has a charging device, located on the left side of the handlebar.
Model: SYM VIVO 125, riding process is quite powerful.

The service staff was excellent. After confirming the order, we realized we had misunderstood and accidentally ordered three scooters 😭. The receptionist not only didn't get angry but also helped us ensure our Tainan trip went smoothly. We are extremely grateful and hope this review will reassure potential travelers who are still considering booking! By the way, #the vehicles at this store are very well maintained. We had no problems or discomfort during the ride! Using our small contribution, #using electric vehicles for travel can reduce the consumption of petroleum or use it in other situations where it is more needed, adding a special meaning to the trip!

Once inside the terminal, check at the desk to see which ship is checking in. Show them your passport and Klook code, and they will take your passport and give you a ticket. It's convenient to book this way, which is great, but when I checked the ticket, it was 750 Taiwan dollars. Even if you calculate it at roughly 50 won per Korean currency, it's about 37,500 won, so please note that you have to pay a little more. For reference, you can sit anywhere on the boat after boarding, and there are restrooms inside. When I boarded, there was almost no shaking, so there was no seasickness at all.

The Tainan-Xiaogang Airport Express Line is really convenient, with many pick-up/drop-off points. The bus arrives on time, and the driver thoughtfully reminds you to be careful getting on and off. It's comfortable and stable, and the large luggage storage area is very spacious. There are no limits on the number of pieces or weight of luggage. Highly recommended!

Bought this to travel to/ from Sihcao Green Tunnel and also the Anping district. Have to redeem at Tainan TRA station. The redemption is just inside the convenience store next to the lockers. Scan the QR code at the counter and a receipt will be printed. Remember to check the timings of the bus. I missed mine and had to wait another 50 minutes. When boarding the bus, just show the receipt to the bus driver. Great experience at the Sihcao Green Tunnel 👍🏻

It was wonderful. You arrived on time, so I was able to get to the Shinkansen station smoothly. The car was also very clean, and the ride was comfortable. If I have the opportunity to go to Tainan again, I will use your service again because the price is reasonable. Thank you very much! ♪
