After arriving at the HSR station, the time to walk in, purchase tickets, and wait on the platform is about 15 minutes.

- If you have a driver's license, do not mind driving yourself, and you do not need to use the travel time to rest in the car, there are about 5 rental car companies, such as 仟捷租賃, 蘋果國際租賃, 尚慶遊覽車客運, available in the TRA Chiayi Station - West District, Chiayi City area. Typically, car rentals are billed by the day. A small sedan like a Toyota Corolla or Ford Fiesta costs around NT$1500 per day, while a 9-seater van like a Hyundai Staria or Volkswagen Caravelle starts at NT$4500 per day. Extra costs such as fuel (approx. NT$3/km), eTag tolls (approx. NT$1/km), roadside parking (approx. NT$40/hour), insurance, and potential fines are not included. Most rental agreements specify a daily mileage limit of 200-400 km, with surcharges ranging from NT$100 to NT$2,000 for exceeding it. Since the vast majority of rental companies do not offer one-way rentals, assuming you make a same-day round trip between TRA Chiayi Station and Pakara'ac Coffee, the estimated cost for a sedan is NT$4600 or NT$7600 for a 9-seater van. This is, of course, cheaper than taking a taxi. But if you only need a one-way trip and will return a day or more later, then renting a car is very inconvenient. Moreover, the rental location may be some distance from TRA Chiayi Station, and you must adhere to their business hours for pickup and return. The rental process itself is tedious, often taking an extra 30 minutes for contracts and vehicle inspection. You may even need to refuel the car yourself before returning. If you encounter a dishonest operator, you risk being hit with various unjustified charges upon return.
- If you choose to take a taxi directly, in the Chiayi City area, you can use apps to hail a cab from 55688 Taiwan Taxi, and if you cannot hail a cab on the street, you can also consider calling taxi fleets near TRA Chiayi Station, such as 嘉義萬全無線計程車, 台灣嘉義大車隊, 嘉義博愛無線計程車 to try to book a ride. Based on the meter, the estimated fare is between NT$6,935 and 8,300. However, when considering the return trip, in Taitung County there are only about 350 licensed taxis. This is about 70% of the number of taxis in Chiayi City, and its density is just 0.2% of the Taipei/New Taipei metro area, making it 410 times more difficult to hail a cab there. Although a metered taxi from central TRA Chiayi Station to central Pakara'ac Coffee might be cheaper, if your group has five people or more, taking two taxis will be more expensive; booking a 9-seater van with Tripool could save you up to NT$2,900. Considering all factors, Tripool is your best choice for traveling from TRA Chiayi Station to Pakara'ac Coffee in terms of both price and service quality.
