When visiting Taiwan, you absolutely cannot miss the spectacular rock formations of the North Coast and the charming mountain towns of Jiufen and Shifen!
However, Yehliu, Jiufen, and Shifen are located in entirely different directions. If you rely on public buses or trains, you might spend a significant amount of time waiting, transferring, and navigating. To maximize your travel experience, we’ve planned the most popular “8-Hour Classic Private Chartered Tour” itinerary for you!
