The charm of Hualien County is never limited to just one place. Do you want to experience both Ming Ging Farm, Menggu Waterfall, Green Green Grasslands and Parque nacional Taroko, Tailuge National Park, Hehuan Lodge Parking in a single trip?

Taroko Gorge private Transfer FAQs
- To take the High Speed Rail (HSR) from Qingjing Farm to Taroko Gorge, HSR is expensive, slow, and has difficult taxi access. From the earliest departure at 06:05 to the latest at 23:03, there are up to 103 high-speed rail from Taichung to Nangang each day. Assuming you depart from Qingjing Farm (Renai Township, Nantou County) and head to the nearest Taichung HSR station, a taxi ride would cost about NT$3,200 and take approximately 100 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 54-81-minute (68 min on average) HSR ride from Taichung Station to Nangang 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 199 minutes with a fare of NT$4,700, you will arrive at your destination at Taroko Gorge (Xiulin Township, Hualien County). The entire journey, including transfers, takes a total of 6 hours and 37 minutes. Assuming one person traveling alone, the total transportation cost is NT$8,650. However, in Nantou County, there are only just over 300 licensed taxis. The taxi density is 0.2% of that in the Taipei/New Taipei metro area. In other words, hailing a taxi on the spot is 500 times more difficult than in a major city like Taipei, and since Qingjing Farm is not located in a downtown area, it may be impossible to find a taxi at all. Even if you are lucky enough to hail a cab, a minority of taxi drivers in Nantou 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$5,850, and the journey takes 3 hours and 59 minutes. Choosing the HSR over a private charter will not only cost at least an extra NT$2,800 in fares but also waste an additional 158 minutes on transfers and waiting. Book with Tripool now!

The taxi density is just 0.2% of that in the Taipei/New Taipei metro area, meaning it is 500 times more difficult to hail a cab on the spot compared to Taipei or New Taipei. If you plan to make a return trip on the same or next day, be aware that taxis in Xiulin Township, Hualien County are also not easy to find. It is recommended to plan ahead. Furthermore, some taxi drivers in Nantou County flat-out refuse to use the meter. Nearly 58% of them will try to negotiate the fare on the spot—often asking far above the standard rate.
