Luxury of Taiwan
This leisurely private tour blends Taipei’s cultural treasures and Sun Moon Lake’s serene beauty with relaxation at a luxurious hot-spring retreat.
Begin in Taipei with your own guide and driver. Explore the National Palace Museum’s world-class collection of paintings, porcelain, jade and calligraphy, then visit Longshan Temple and other active Buddhist and Taoist sites. In a historic tea house, savor mountain-grown oolong, and wander Dadaocheng’s century-old streets to discover artisanal teas, dried mushrooms and ginseng shops. Pay your respects at Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, ascend Taipei 101 for panoramic city and mountain views, and browse handcrafted ceramics and glassware at Songshan Cultural and Creative Park. One evening, lose yourself in the Shilin Night Market’s bustling food stalls and local treats.
Next, ride Taiwan’s High-Speed Rail to Sun Moon Lake. Stay lakeside at a top-tier resort, then choose from a private cruise, hilltop temple visits, a working tea-plantation tour, a handmade paper workshop, the Sun Moon Lake Ropeway or the Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village.
Then unwind at a five-star hot-spring resort in Guguan. Enjoy your private rotenburo bath, spa therapies, yoga, forest hikes and gourmet local cuisine amid verdant mountains.
Return to Taipei for final touring, shopping and dining-tailored by Artisans of Leisure with Michelin-star restaurant bookings or tickets to puppet theater, Chinese opera or the Cloud Gate Dance Theater.
Taiwan also pairs perfectly with Japan, Hong Kong, Cambodia, Laos, Bali, Indonesia, Vietnam or Thailand.
