Taiwan in a Week: Taipei, Night Markets & Mountain Gorges
From Taipei highlights to Sun Moon Lake calm, see Taiwan with a clear plan
7-10 day Taiwan itineraries suit travellers who want a balanced mix of cities, nature, and culture without rushing. Many trips start in Taipei for key sights and street food, then head out to calm lake views, coastal walks, and temple towns that show a softer side of the island. Expect a mix of guided time and free time, with plans that help keep travel smooth while still leaving space for a night market wander or a café stop. Some tours in the Far East combine Taiwan with China, but the focus here stays on the places and experiences within Taiwan.

This is Taiwan beyond the postcard.Worldwide Touring8We were impressed with the high standard of accommodation at each place, especially Fleur de Chine Hotel at Sun Moon Lake and Grand Hi Lai Hotel at Kaohsiung. Touring each day was very busy and you don't get much time to see around the areas where we stayed. Maybe commencing by 8am each day. We were happy with the places we visited but would have liked more time to walk near the hotel areas to see something of the cities we visited

Worldwide Touring7The guide Peter was the best! He was very funny and had lots of stories and local knowledge. He handled the group of 33 very well. The hotels were overall very nice. There was too much time on the bus. We always arrived at the hotels after the pool or other facilities were closed for the evening. Since the hotels were so nice, it would have been enjoyable to have more time to relax. Maybe removing or shortening a few stops could be considered.
