What you'll see and do
YehLiu Geopark
Yehliu is a cape on Taiwan’s northern coast best known for Yehliu Geopark, where sea erosion has shaped honeycomb and mushroom rocks such as the iconic Queen’s Head and Dragon’s Head. The area is mostly flat but offers little shade, so sun protection is advised during summer.

Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street)
Feel transported to this former gold-mining mountain town—once built by the Japanese and now a maze of history-rich lanes and alleys. Most of the charming streets are stairways lined with snack stalls and teahouses, and they can get quite crowded. (Tip: If you’d like to experience Jiufen at sunset or dusk, book a departure after 11:00 AM. This will make Jiufen the final stop, giving you time to enjoy the sunset views and evening lights.)
90 minutes here
Shifen Waterfall
Shifen Waterfall is Taiwan’s most famous cascade, fed by the Keelung River, and measures about 20 meters (66 feet) high and 40 meters (131 feet) wide. Reaching the viewing platform takes about a 30-minute walk, partly shaded and crossing a suspension bridge.
60 minutes here
Shifen Old Street
This old street is right next to Shifen Station in the Pingxi area, where an active railway line runs straight through the market. Visitors launch sky lanterns on the tracks, pausing whenever a train rumbles by.

Excellent Tour Guide and Wonderful Experience!
We had such a wonderful experience with our tour guide, Nicolas Ying! He was very friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable throughout the whole tour. He made sure we were comfortable, answered all our questions, and gave us great recommendations along the way. His positive attitude and excellent service made our trip even more enjoyable. Highly recommended, and we would definitely love to have him as our guide again! 😊✨

Amazing tour
I would absolutely recommend this tour. Our family thoroughly enjoyed it. Nicholas Ying is a brilliant tour guide. He went out of his way to keep us entertained, took photos for us and offered helpful advice. In particular, he was extremely kind and attentive to my elderly father, who has difficulty walking, and provided him with the utmost support. We are very grateful. The next time we visit Taiwan, we will definitely ask him to be our tour guide again. Thank you very much.

Why this scores 88
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Taipei.
How much does Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup cost?
+
Prices start at $120 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Taipei usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Taipei is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 872 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Taipei, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup?
+
Around 305 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Taipei can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Taipei and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Taipei within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Taipei?
+
On Outty we rank every Taipei experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full-Day Private Custom Taipei City Tour, Private Tour to Jiufen, Yehliu Geopark, and Pingxi, Small-Group: Yehliu, Jiufen & Pingxi Day Tour from Taipei. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Taipei?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Taipei?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
