After arriving at the HSR station, the time to walk in, purchase tickets, and wait on the platform is about 20 minutes.

Even if you are lucky enough to hail a cab, a minority of taxi drivers in Taitung County may not use the meter, and might overcharge or take detours, especially with passengers who appear to be from out of town. In contrast, if you use Tripool for a door-to-door private car service, it will only cost NT$8,160, and the journey takes 6 hours and 56 minutes.
