Detalles del programa

Have a lengthy layover in Taiwan? Don’t want to spend your time at the airport? We've got you covered! Go on our layover day tour for travelers having to make a long stop in Taiwan. We take you to two places of interest in the greater Taipei area, one with truly amazing rock formations, the other known for delicious snack foods and stunning sunsets.

Your day adventure begins with an hour-long drive from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, during which a friendly and informative tour guide will give you a short introduction to Taiwan and the places you will be visiting.

Then we stop at Yeliu Geopark on the north coast, famous for its sea-eroded landscapes and strangely-shaped rock formations. Have fun photographing amazing features and learn about the tales and myths that surround this fascinating place. Among the strange and wonderful rock formations you’ll find are honeycomb, ginger, and mushroom rocks, and, the most famous of all, the ""Queen's Head,"" said to resemble the head of the ancient Egyptian queen Nefertiti.

The next stop is the lovely port town of Tamsui, to the north of Taipei City. There you will be visiting Fort San Domingo, a small sturdy fort built by the Spanish in 1629, which contains a wealth of Taiwanese history and also boasts spectacular views of the Tamsui River. Then walk along the lively old street of Tamsui and follow the riverfront where you can sample a wide variety of snacks and also play some interesting games. The old streets and the heritage sites of Tamusi give you a great starting point to get an idea of what Taiwan‘s rich culture is about.

Then it will be time to get back to the airport and on your flight to your final destination you might reminisce about your day in Taiwan and perhaps you will be thinking of coming back one day to explore to see more of beautiful Taiwan.
