It is a very tiring trip.
Have you booked your tickets for 11 days holiday?
If not, i will suggest you to go easy, and perhaps reconsider to spend 4-5 days in Taipei if this is your maiden trip to Taiwan.

my tix already booked yes this is our maiden trip to taiwan.

Think concentrate on Taichung and Taipei will be good enough. Dragging around every day isn't all fun.

I think worse than join tour with travel agency.

It's better to use a map and goggle to know the distance between each place, don't pack too tight or you will tired out and cannot enjoy your holiday.

As mentioned.
Still with 11 days, not possible to cover all attractions.
One road block or another means a big detour.

Most will say can sleep in car.
Taiwan has rather windy routes.
So best to be vigilant at all time or chat with driver.
You may sleep away, but if driver sleeps away?

The blog itinerary look a lot better than yours, I don't see any rush and concentrate more on Taichung/ cingjing/ Taipei.
Your main problem will start from Day 6,7 and 10.

 

[Andrew833]

Hualien to kenting by car/ van need 6 hr , that's crazy.
Kenting to alishan 3hr+
Qingjing to Taipei 3.5 hr

 

[raymondseow]

let me check with the driver
