The private charter typically lasts between 8 to 10 hours, starting from your Taipei hotel pickup and concluding after your visit to the Keelung Miaokou Night Market.
The driver will pick you up directly from your hotel lobby or a specified address within Taipei City limits. You must provide your accommodation details at the time of booking to arrange the exact pickup location.
While the private vehicle accommodates folded wheelchairs or strollers, Jiufen Old Street features steep, uneven stone steps and narrow alleyways that are highly inaccessible for wheels. Shifen and Pingxi have flatter terrain but still require navigating around active railway tracks.

You should bring sufficient cash in New Taiwan Dollars, as many small food vendors in Pingxi, Jiufen, and the Keelung night market do not accept credit cards. Comfortable walking shoes with good grip are also essential for navigating the wet and slippery stone steps in Jiufen.
The tour operates in light to moderate rain, but the release of sky lanterns at Shifen may be suspended by local authorities during heavy rain or strong winds for safety reasons. The rest of the itinerary will proceed as planned unless severe weather warnings are issued.
Visitors must stay clear of the active train tracks when the Pingxi Line trains are approaching, as the trains pass directly through the narrow streets of Shifen and Pingxi. It is illegal and dangerous to stand on the tracks while a train is in motion.
