ยAbout experience
Day 1 โ Taipei
โข Fly into Taipei and transfer to your hotel.
โข Weโll experience a tea ceremony, led by a local tea master and featuring a selection of Taiwan's finest teas. Enjoy dinner - with some excellent local tea, of course.
Day 2 โ Hualien
โข Early morning departure for a four-hour drive to Hualien. Stops along the way at the hot & cold springs park in Jiaoxi in Yilan County.ย Optional stops at Kavalan Whiskey distillery.
โข After weโve set you up in your hotel and youโve taken a rest, we can look around this lively city of 100,000 people.
Day 3 โ Ruisui District
โข Basing ourselves in Hualien, today weโll drive to Ruisui for scenery and, naturally, more tea. The district is famous for its hot springs; if you want to soak, bring your swimsuit. Along the way, we can make a stop at Danongdafu Forest Park, a former sugar plantation thatโs been turned into a sprawling recreational woodland.
Day 4 โ Sun Moon Lake
โข From Hualien, weโll start on a fabulous scenic drive through the mountains. The road crests at two miles above sea level, but before then weโll likely halt for a cup of hot ginger tea at Bilu Sacred Tree.
โข Weโll make regular stops so you can photograph the gorgeous panoramas, then descend toward one of Taiwanโs most famous attractions, Sun Moon Lake. Youโll arrive in time to see the lake (by private boat, if you let us know in advance) and take a short rest in your hotel before dinner.
Day 5 โ Tea Plantations
โข Among the lakeside attractions weโll visit are Cien Pagoda and a pair of temples.
โข After lunch, you can stretch your legs at the nearby Antique Assam Tea Farm, a restored Japanese-era tea plantation which is as educational as it is scenic. Itโll then be time to say goodbye to the lake and head to the oolong-growing part of the mountainous Alishan region.
Day 6 โ Tea Plantations
โข Weโll have the entire day to explore the Greater Alishan region, visit tea plantations, meet farmers and try their teas. The scenery throughout is wonderful; if youโd like to go for a hike, weโll show you a trail that matches your physical condition.
โข We can go for a gentle stroll through the forests around Fenqihu.
Day 7 โ Wrap up
โข Whatever time you fly out, weโll help you make the very most of your final day in Taiwan. Before putting you on the bullet train at Chiayi HSR Station, we can bring you to the Southern Branch of the National Palace Museum, which has a superb permanent exhibition about tea culture, as well as sections devoted to Asian textiles, Buddhist Art and other themes.
Additional information:
โข Prices based on twin sharing. Single supplement is US$402.
