Qingjing Farm private Transfer FAQs
- If you are considering renting a car, unfortunately, there are likely no rental companies in the vicinity of Shifen Old Street. If you do not want to spend extra time traveling to a nearby city to rent a car, nor spend NT$7,140 on a taxi to Qingjing Farm, then a direct Tripool private car is your best option.
- To take the High Speed Rail (HSR) from Shifen Old Street to Qingjing Farm, HSR is quick but pricey. From the earliest departure at 06:26 to the latest at 23:00, there are up to 102 high-speed rail from Taipei to Taichung each day. Assuming you depart from Shifen Old Street (Pingxi District, New Taipei City) and head to the nearest Taipei HSR station, a taxi ride would cost about NT$1,000 and take approximately 52 minutes. After arriving at the HSR station, the time to walk in, purchase tickets, and wait on the platform is about 25 minutes. Then, take a 47-66-minute (57 min on average) HSR ride from Taipei Station to Taichung HSR Station. The ticket price is NT$700 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 100 minutes with a fare of NT$3,200, you will arrive at your destination at Qingjing Farm (Renai Township, Nantou County). The entire journey, including transfers, takes a total of 4 hours and 4 minutes. Assuming 4 people traveling together, the average cost per person for the HSR and transfers is NT$1,750. In contrast, if you use Tripool for a door-to-door private car service, the average cost per person is about NT$1,610, and the journey takes 4 hours and 22 minutes. For long-distance travel, the HSR is indeed faster than a car by 18 minutes, but it comes with an extra transportation cost of about NT$560. Therefore, for those who are not in a major hurry, booking with Tripool is the more cost-effective option. If you are traveling in a group of three or less, you can also consider Tripool's carpooling service to save up to an additional 50% on transportation costs.
- If you choose to take a taxi directly, in the New Taipei City area, you can use apps to hail a cab from 55688 Taiwan Taxi, Uber, Line Go, Yoxi, etc.. Based on the meter, the estimated fare is between NT$7,140 and 8,600, but you could save up to NT$2,100 by booking with Tripool instead. However, when considering the return trip, in Nantou County there are only about 340 licensed taxis. This is about 2% of the number of taxis in New Taipei 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 Shifen Old Street to Qingjing Farm in terms of both price and service quality.

- 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 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.
