Departs from Keelung port (per the description)
Why it is on this site
  • The description says it leaves from Keelung port and ends back at the ship, so the driver handles the 40–50 minutes to the capital each way.
  • Lunch at Din Tai Fung inside Taipei 101 is included, as is a guide in English, Spanish or Chinese.
  • Eighteen reviews, all five stars, and the site's Keelung list uses it for its 'Taipei, door to door' pick.
Best for

First-time visitors who want the capital's main sights with the ship's clock handled for them.

Think twice if

The Taipei 101 observation deck is excluded (the record gives USD 18) and gratuities are extra. The record's pickup list shows only Taoyuan Airport, so confirm the quay pickup when you book.
