Question 1

Is taking the HSR from 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 to Keelung Harbor a good idea?

Accepted Answer

To take the High Speed Rail (HSR) from 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 to Keelung Harbor, HSR is expensive, slow, and involves transfer hassles. From the earliest departure at 06:36 to the latest at 23:12, there are up to 62 high-speed rail from Hsinchu to Nangang each day. Assuming you depart from 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 (North District, Hsinchu City)  and head to the nearest Hsinchu HSR station, a taxi ride would cost about NT$400 and take approximately 23 minutes. After arriving at the HSR station, the time to walk in, purchase tickets, and wait on the platform is about 15 minutes. Then, take a 42-48-minute (45 min on average) HSR ride from Hsinchu Station to Nangang HSR Station. The ticket price is NT$330 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 29 minutes with a fare of NT$600, you will arrive at your destination at Keelung Harbor (Renai District, Keelung City). The entire journey, including transfers, takes a total of 2 hours and 2 minutes. Assuming 3 people traveling together, the average cost per person for the HSR and transfers is NT$660. In contrast, if you use Tripool for a door-to-door private car service, the average cost per person is about NT$570, and the journey takes 1 hour and 30 minutes. Choosing the HSR over a private charter will not only cost each person at least an extra NT$90 in fares but also waste an additional 32 minutes on transfers and waiting. Book with Tripool now! 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.

Question 2

Is it advisable to rent a car and drive from 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 to Keelung Harbor?

Accepted Answer

Travelers usually do not choose to rent or drive to Keelung Harbor. After all, leaving a car parked for multiple days means that parking fees and rental costs become a substantial expense.

Question 3

Would it be economical to take a taxi from 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 to Keelung Harbor?

Accepted Answer

If you choose to take a taxi directly, in the Hsinchu City area, you can use apps to hail a cab from 55688 Taiwan Taxi, Uber, Line Go, Yoxi, etc., and if you cannot hail a cab on the street, you can also consider calling taxi fleets near 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心, such as 以勒計程車隊, 566計程車, 竹城交通 to try to book a ride. Based on the meter, the estimated fare is between NT$2,670 and 3,200, but you could save up to NT$1,500 by booking with Tripool instead. Considering all factors, Tripool is your best choice for traveling from 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 to Keelung Harbor in terms of both price and service quality.

Question 4

Why does tripool charge cheaper than other taxis?

Accepted Answer

For regular long-distance travelers, they find Tripool's price may be too low to be good. On the contrary, Tripool has a high standard for selecting drivers and vehicles. Besides dropping drivers who are low rated, we also send mystery shoppers regularly to test drivers' service. Tripool's drivers are not allowed to smoke in the cars, and they have to wear masks all the time during the pandemic. We don't compromise our service for a low cost. Tripool can provide excellent service with 70~80% of the market price because of AI algorithms. We use these to dispatch vehicles to increase efficiency. Tripool can use fewer drivers to serve more travelers, especially in high seasons like Chinese New Year, Christmas, and summer vacation. Fewer drivers mean better quality control. The price on tripool's website and app are dynamic. Generally, the earlier a ride is booked, the lower price it is. Most of all, all booking are 100% refundable as long as the cancelation request is made one day before noon, no matter what the reason is. If you are preparing to go from 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 to Keelung Harbor, it's better to reserve it now to secure the best price.

Question 5

Do tripool and the drivers provide legal car-hiring services in Hsinchu City and Keelung City?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 6

Which is the best taxi app in Taiwan? Uber? Grab? Didi? Bolt? Lyft?

Accepted Answer

Among these options, Uber is the only one with broad and reliable coverage in Taiwan, available in major cities such as Taipei, Taichung, and Kaohsiung. Grab does not operate in Taiwan. Didi previously entered the market but has since exited. Bolt has just launched in Taiwan and is currently limited to Taipei. Lyft is not available in Taiwan. If you are choosing among these five, Uber is by far the most practical and widely used option in Taiwan. However, for longer intercity transfers, airport rides, or day trips, tripool is often a better choice—offering transparent pricing, professional drivers, and coverage across Taiwan.

Question 7

Does tripool provide child car seats for private transportation service between 南寮漁港旅遊服務中心 to Keelung Harbor?

Accepted Answer

According to the law in Taiwan, all passengers have to fasten seat belts, no matter what ages they are. For a baby below 4-year-old or a young child who cannot comfortably be on the seat with a seat belt, it is necessary to use a car seat or a safety booster. There is a check box for renting a baby car seat or a child safety booster on the check-out page. Each rental fee is NT$300. If you need multiple car seats/boosters or you need an infant car seat, please check with our online customer service first. Tripool encourages parents to bring their car seats and boosters, and, of course, it is free of charge.
