Very easy to DIY, only thing is time wasting but the experience is superb.
Agreed. Not difficult and the experience is awesome. It was our first time to taipei. I DIY all. Like u all advised. If dunno. Ask the ppl around. They will guide. Trial n error. Buses there very convenient.

We don't like tour package. Timing constraint. Cannot own time own target:D

Hi all,

Planning to travel to hualien once we reach taoyuan airport.
Asked a few drivers, one suggest we take train to hualien. And he will pick us up the next day for a day trip.

After which, from taichung he advise us to take train back to taipei as well.. to save cost..

Kindly advise will it be fine? I will be travelling with my parents both in 60s.

Typical trip like such, i will advise you to stay a night in Taipei.
Next morning, take a train to hualien.
As the tickets to hualien are limited, feel free to private msg me to make the purchase.

As mentioned from driver, they will be starting from Hualien to Cingjing to Taichung?
It will be advisable to let me do the ferrying from Taichung back to Taipei, as you have two old folks with you.

Ultimately, it will be down to how many days have you got to be in Taiwan.
