Taipei→六福水樂園: hire a driver is the fastest, and iRent is the cheapest

To take the High Speed Rail (HSR) from downtown Taipei to 六福水樂園, HSR is expensive, slow, and involves transfer hassles. From the earliest departure at 06:26 to the latest at 23:00, there are up to 61 high-speed rail from Taipei to Hsinchu each day. Assuming you depart from Zhongzheng District, Taipei City, you may walk or take a bus—if available—to Taipei HSR station. Including walking to the platform, buying a ticket, and waiting for the train, it takes at least 25 minutes. Then, take a 30-35-minute (34 min on average) HSR ride from Taipei Station to Hsinchu HSR Station. The ticket price is NT$290 per person, followed by a 5-minute walk to exit the station, wait for a ride at the taxi stand, and after a trip of about 33 minutes with a fare of NT$800, you will arrive at your destination at 六福水樂園 (Guanxi Township, Hsinchu County). The entire journey, including transfers, takes a total of 1 hour and 37 minutes. Assuming 2 people traveling together, the average cost per person for the HSR and transfers is NT$690. In contrast, if you use Tripool for a door-to-door private car service, the average cost per person is about NT$670, and the journey takes 1 hour. Choosing the HSR over a private charter will not only cost each person at least an extra NT$20 in fares but also waste an additional 37 minutes on transfers and waiting. Book with Tripool now! If you are traveling alone, you can also consider Tripool's carpooling service to save up to an additional 50% on transportation costs.

If you have a Taiwanese driver's license, are confident in your driving skills, and you do not need to rest in the car (since you will be the one driving), and most importantly, if you plan to make a same-day round trip, then iRent, which allows you to pick up and drop off a car on the street in the Taipei City area, is likely your cheapest option. After registering on the iRent app, you can rent a small car for NT$115-205 per hour with an additional charge of NT$3.2 per kilometer. The estimated cost from Taipei (Zhongzheng District) to 六福水樂園 is between NT$900 and NT$1350 (the price difference depends on weekday/weekend rates, car model, and how soon you make the return trip after reaching your destination). Although the estimate already includes potential eTag tolls and a roadside parking fee of NT$40 per hour, you are responsible for any additional car insurance and potential traffic fines. Furthermore, iRent by Hotai only offers basic models like the Toyota Yaris, Prius C, and Vios—functional, yes, but far from the comfort you'd expect for anything beyond a grocery run. If your group has more than four people, larger 7-seater or 9-seater vehicles are not available. Moreover, the most common complaint about self-service car-sharing services is the vehicle's condition; you might open the door to find trash left by the previous user or unrepaired dents. Every rental feels like opening a blind box—sometimes fine, sometimes frustrating. Additionally, you might occasionally face issues like the previous user not returning the car on time for your reservation, or being unable to find a parking spot when you need to return it. This poses a significant risk for those in a hurry or traveling with other passengers. Finally, while picking up and dropping off the car on the street seems convenient, it is restricted to specific operational zones. The available parking spots may still be some distance away from your actual departure or arrival point, making it very inconvenient in rainy weather or when carrying luggage.

If you choose to take a taxi directly, in the Taipei 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, such as 國華衛星車隊, 日昇計程車, 廣利交通 to try to book a ride. Based on the meter, the estimated fare is between NT$1,415 and 1,700, which is not significantly different from Tripool. By comparison, Tripool offers a fixed, transparent fare that will not change due to traffic or detours. However, when considering the return trip, in Hsinchu County there are only about 730 licensed taxis. This is about 2% of the number of taxis in Taipei City, and its density is just 1.3% of the Taipei/New Taipei metro area, making it 80 times more difficult to hail a cab there. Considering all factors, Tripool is your best choice for traveling from Taipei to 六福水樂園 in terms of both price and service quality.

Tripool will send a receipt through the third-party system one week after the ride.

Once the receipt is received via email, it can be printed out for reimbursement or saved as a PDF.
