Yansan Night Food Market Tour
Had a great food tour with Mike. He did a great job, We ate a variety of food and he explained each dish to us. Told us all about the night market and the stalls we went to. It was a great tour and I would highly recommend it.

Come hungry!
We did both the Night Market Tour (with Tina) and the Iconic Food Tour (with Jean). Both were excellent experiences and Tina and Jean are expert guides that have a lot of knowledge and put you at complete ease in otherwise unfamiliar surroundings. The Yasan Night Market isn’t the typical setup but that actually made for a more authentic experience as it’s not overwhelmed with other tourists. Highlights were the sticky-rice sausage, sweet potato puffs and the oyster omelet. In addition to the dishes we tried (which were plentiful), Tina had some great recommendations. The Iconic Tour was just as good, if not better. There was no overlap with the Night Market Tour so made complete sense to do both. It was also in the daylight so you could appreciate some of your surroundings as well as the delicious food. It starts with a walk through one of the nicest street markets I’ve been through and ends with a delicious sweet treat. The betel nut was an experience, as was the stinky tofu! Overall, these tours were excellent value and professionally operated, they come highly recommended for the adventurous foodie.

Great night market tour
An absolutely great night market tour. We discovered flavors and dishes that we probably wouldn't have tried at first glance. Everything was really very good. And our guides Tina and Mick were adorable. For 2 hours we felt like locals in Taipei 🥰 Thanks a lot. 谢谢
Response from the operator: Look at you! Using all that mandarin!! Thank you for the review!

A highlight from Taipei
The Yansan night market tour was very enjoyable. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable – the right balance of encouraging us to be adventurous and taking peoples preferences into account (and also had some good recommendations for food in vietnam, where we were headed next). We tried food we wouldn't have tried otherwise, in a market we probably wouldn't have seen on our own given our limited time in Taipei. Wandering (well, being gently shepherded) from stall to shop to stall, in good company with a beer in hand on a humid evening. Great.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! The end sounds like a poem of a magical time :)

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Yansan Night Market Food Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Taipei.
How much does Yansan Night Market Food Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $62 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 Yansan Night Market Food Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Yansan Night Market Food Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Taipei, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Yansan Night Market Food Tour?
+
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 Yansan Night Market Food Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Yansan Night Market Food Tour?
+
Around 11 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Yansan Night Market Food Tour 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, Full-Day Private Northern Taiwan Tour from Taipei with Pickup. 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.
