Things to do in Daan Forest Park

Spectacular day with Mr Chen. Exceeded our high expectations. Was the perfect way to learn about Taipei and Taiwan with an outstanding guide. Loved the combination of walking, cycling and hiking. cannot recommend highly enough.

Eva Lin was an excellent guide. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what she does. The tour was well-paced and informative, and she made sure everyone felt included and had a great time. I learned a lot and came away with a much deeper appreciation for the place. I'd happily recommend Eva to anyone looking for a memorable, well-run experience. Thank you, Eva!

One of our group day-tours got cancelled, but we were still able to go to Taipei 101 since we reserved tickets. This was one the highlights of our trip to Taiwan. The tower itself is more beautiful and magnificent in person. Even looking up at it from the street was such a sight to see. YouTube videos and postcards do not do it justice. We had access to the 89th Obseravatory Floor and it was worth it. We were able to get pictures prior to getting on the elevator. The 89th floor offered 360 degree views of Taipei and it was glorious. We were there around 5:45 to 6:45 pm and that was perfect for a golden sunset. The floor had a flux of photogenic backgrounds and props, some adorable cafes and treats, a souvenir shop, the Tuned Mass Dumper section, and the elevators to go up and down the tower. This was an unforgettable experience and easily topped some of my prior tower visits in the USA.

August 23, 2026 (Sunday) Two years ago, when we visited, it was a sunny day. Today, the weather was very cool, with a light drizzle. However, because of the rain, the roller coaster was temporarily closed, which was a shame because we didn't get to ride it. We rode the Jungle Roar Treehouse (free fall), the pirate ship, the spinning teacups, the Galaxy Express (monorail), the Ferris wheel, the Happy Bumper Cars, and the Space Gyro. It was truly worth the price of admission! My most memorable experience was riding the pirate ship; it was actually very comfortable, and my daughter and I rode it twice. My son was glued to the sandbox and spent an hour and a half there. 😅 We didn't leave until it got dark (6:30 PM), and it was hard to say goodbye.

Very easy to use, just scan your code and they'll give you a receipt with a QR to use on the gates. No problems using it at Maokong Gondola and Taipei Zoo. I was also able to use the zoo train one-way.

Booking our tickets online right before entering Taipei Zoo turned out to be a great move, as paying in PHP was noticeably cheaper than purchasing directly in NTD at the gate. The zoo grounds are massive, beautifully maintained, and offer incredible value, but timing is everything when visiting. Arriving at 1:00 PM already put us on a tight schedule, and an unexpected two-hour rainstorm completely stalled our plans. Because of the weather delay and the sheer size of the park, we weren't able to explore the entire zoo, but we definitely plan to visit again on our next trip to Taipei. For anyone planning a visit, I strongly recommend buying your tickets online in advance for the best rate, arriving right when the park opens, and packing umbrellas so a sudden downpour won't cut your day short.

the tour is very informative and entertaining! our tour guide is a cheerful lady who is also passionate and talkative. She gave an delightful presentation about the history of the brewery, along with Taiwan’s industrial history. The tour ends with a unforgettable experience of extracting beers as much as we want directly from the tanks, which tasted so fresh that nothing in the market can compare with. I highly recommend this tour to everyone who loves beer and happy drinks! Hoo-Tah-Lah!

It was so much fun and very therapeutic! When I went that day, the number of people on-site was well-controlled, so there was enough time and space to fully experience the perfume-making process. The entire video explanation was clear, and the staff were very nice and always ready to assist. I added extra capacity on-site that day, and overall, I felt it was a very worthwhile experience to create my own unique fragrance. I recommend thinking of a name for your perfume beforehand so you're not caught off guard or without ideas when you're there. The Zhongxiao Station location is easy to find, right behind Sogo. My only regret is that I was so happy after making the perfume that I forgot to take pictures!

The studio was very easy to find, and the whole experience was well-organized. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, even for someone doing ring-making for the first time. The staff also made the process feel comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience, and I’m really happy with the ring I made!
