Taiwan Family Tours

A family tour doesn’t have to mean boring and getting under each other’s toes. In fact, we’ve designed our Taiwan family tours to cater to the needs of everyone in the family. Where typical tour itineraries tick boxes, our approach is all about the experience and answering that all important question: How can we make it fun? We get that nobody wants to go home with only a bunch of snapshots. They want experiences – and that’s where our tour design team excels. Our goal for your family? Well, it’s to see the sights and get up close to Taiwanese culture, history, traditions, and food. We’ve found it’s the best way to bring a destination to life for mum, dad, and the kids.

When we put together our tours of Taiwan for families, we sat back and considered what we love about this island and what we know about traveling with the people we love most. Taiwan is beautiful and we want to show you that, so we’ve included a whole host of must-see and do’s:
● Exploring exciting cities like Taipei and Kaohsiung.
● Discovering destinations steeped in incredible natural beauty (did we say Taiwan’s other name is the ‘emerald Eden’?) like Taroko, Alishan, Kenting and Taijiang National Parks, and Yehliu Geopark with its fascinating rock structures.
● Unpacking history at places like the National Palace Museum, historical streets retaining centuries-old charm in Tamshui and Jiufen.
● Scenic bike rides stimulate the senses.
● Farm visits and homestays provide an experience of real Taiwan and its people.
● Opportunities to delight in the full gamut of Taiwanese cuisine, from street food to night markets, and fabulous five-star restaurants.

And if there’s an adventure you absolutely have to try and it’s not on our itinerary, just let us know and we’ll do what we can to make it happen.

Some families enjoy sleep-ins and a slower pace. Others are ready for action and want adventure from day one. That’s why we offer the flexibility of customizing your own Taiwan family tour if our set itineraries don’t include what you’re after. With a bespoke family tour, you can:

● Design your own adventure – Take our tour and change it up or design your own from the ground up. If your family wants to explore more, we can arrange that with ease.
● Create your own pace – Whether you’re dealing with toddlers, tweens, or teens, we can adjust your itinerary to suit where your family’s at right now. Whether it’s faster, slower, or in between, we can adjust accordingly to make the tour totally manageable for you.
● Add more experiences – Understanding kids like to jump right in, we offer many different experiences to keep them engaged. Apart from those included on our family tours, there are many other unique Taiwan experiences we can include in your itinerary. Just ask us.
