- To take the High Speed Rail (HSR) from Sparkle 101｜101思泊客(Hotel,Lounge,Kitchen,Café,飯店,酒吧,私廚,輕食) to Sun Moon Lake, HSR is quick but pricey. From the earliest departure at 06:15 to the latest at 22:50, there are up to 101 high-speed rail from Nangang to Taichung each day. Assuming you depart from Sparkle 101｜101思泊客(Hotel,Lounge,Kitchen,Café,飯店,酒吧,私廚,輕食) (Xinyi District, Keelung City) and head to the nearest Nangang HSR station, a taxi ride would cost about NT$600 and take approximately 31 minutes. After arriving at the HSR station, the time to walk in, purchase tickets, and wait on the platform is about 20 minutes. Then, take a 58-77-minute (68 min on average) HSR ride from Nangang Station to Taichung HSR Station. The ticket price is NT$750 per person, followed by a 10-minute walk to exit the station, wait for a ride at the taxi stand, and after a trip of about 70 minutes with a fare of NT$2,500, you will arrive at your destination at Sun Moon Lake (Yuchi Township, Nantou County). The entire journey, including transfers, takes a total of 3 hours and 19 minutes. Assuming 3 people traveling together, the average cost per person for the HSR and transfers is NT$1,780. In contrast, if you use Tripool for a door-to-door private car service, the average cost per person is about NT$1,750, and the journey takes 3 hours and 38 minutes. For long-distance travel, the HSR is indeed faster than a car by 19 minutes, but it comes with an extra transportation cost of about NT$90. Therefore, for those who are not in a major hurry, booking with Tripool is the more cost-effective option. If you are traveling with just one other person, you can also consider Tripool's carpooling service to save up to an additional 50% on transportation costs.
- If you are considering renting a car, unfortunately, there are likely no rental companies in the vicinity of Sparkle 101｜101思泊客(Hotel,Lounge,Kitchen,Café,飯店,酒吧,私廚,輕食). If you do not want to spend extra time traveling to a nearby city to rent a car, nor spend NT$6,640 on a taxi to Sun Moon Lake, then a direct Tripool private car is your best option.
- If you choose to take a taxi directly, in the Keelung City area, you can use apps to hail a cab from 55688 Taiwan Taxi, Uber, and Yoxi, and if you cannot hail a cab on the street, you can also consider calling taxi fleets near Sparkle 101｜101思泊客(Hotel,Lounge,Kitchen,Café,飯店,酒吧,私廚,輕食), such as 基隆日昇計程車, 順安計程車, 基隆市計程車 to try to book a ride. Based on the meter, the estimated fare is between NT$6,640 and 8,000, but you could save up to NT$2,700 by booking with Tripool instead. However, when considering the return trip, in Nantou County there are only about 340 licensed taxis. This is about 10% of the number of taxis in Keelung City, and its density is just 0.2% of the Taipei/New Taipei metro area, making it 490 times more difficult to hail a cab there. Considering all factors, Tripool is your best choice for traveling from Sparkle 101｜101思泊客(Hotel,Lounge,Kitchen,Café,飯店,酒吧,私廚,輕食) to Sun Moon Lake in terms of both price and service quality.
- Tripool provides private day tours and charter services all around the island, including Sun Moon Lake and Sparkle 101｜101思泊客(Hotel,Lounge,Kitchen,Café,飯店,酒吧,私廚,輕食). Tourists are welcome to choose from point-to-point transportation service to 2~12 hours private trip service. The price is 100% transparent without any hidden fee. What you see on the website/app is the actual price. There is no need to email us or even make a phone call to verify. The full-day service price may not be lower than other providers. But if you only need a few hours or just a one-way transfer service, we can guarantee that our price is the most competitive in the market and tripool is the best choice. We offer 5-seater sedans, SUVs, and 9-seater vans. If your group is more than 9, we can arrange a bigger bus for you.
- There are many gypsy cabs or illegal taxis in Line and Facebook groups. Their fares are cheap but with many risks. If the cabs are pulled over by polices, passengers cannot continue the trip. If there is an accident, none of the insurance companies will settle a claim. Worst of all, illegal drivers may conduct crimes without any trace. Don't put your life at risk for just saving a few bucks. On the other hand, tripool contracts with legal drivers without any criminal record. All vehicles provide up to $5 million in insurance. The easiest way to distinguish a legal vehicle is the car plate number. Unless the initial character of the car plate number is either T or R, the car is 100% illegal for taxi service.
- Tripool will send a receipt through the third-party system one week after the ride. If passengers need to claim reimbursement for travel expenses, there is a blank to fill with the company's title and tax ID. It's legal, and there is no extra 5% for the receipt. Once the receipt is received via email, it can be printed out for reimbursement or saved as a PDF.
- Fewer travelers book hotels through traditional travel agents, and most go through OTAs (online travel agents). It is easy to filter areas, prices, types of rooms, special needs on OTAs' websites. Still, customers can also get a 20~40% discount compared to hotels' official websites. The most popular OTAs in Taiwan are Booking.com, Agoda.com, Hotels.com, Expedia.com, and Trip.com. In general, travelers can make reservations on websites or apps. Once finishing the online payment, everything is set, and there is not necessary to double-check the reservation by phone. However, some hotels may oversell their rooms on multiple platforms. To avoid being rejected by hotels once you arrive, choose high-rated hotels with more reviews online or make a phone call to hotels to confirm again. For B&Bs (also called minsus), locals prefer to book rooms through B&Bs' websites or contact the hosts directly. Sometimes, the price is better than OTAs. The downside is that their websites don't accept foreign credit cards or guests have to do wire transfers. If you want to save all these troubles and find decent B&Bs, Airbnb and AsiaYo (a local brand) are the best alternatives.
