this would have been better if I wasn't having trouble with Google maps. NOT the fault of the pass. 1 day would never be enough to see. I had a 2 day pass and made the best use of it I could. mrt's everywhere. I didn't get to all I wanted, but loved what I saw. you can pick up your pass at anytime. the day count does not start until it is 1st used, on an mrt, at a locale. then that begins day 1. try to plan your days in advance. enjoy!

We had an excellent experience with Teng as our guide, which was very specific to seeing different varieties of cherry blossoms all over Taiwan. An exception was the last stop at fisherman’s wharf that could have been left off. An earlier return to Taipei city would have been better as we arrived after 6 pm (which made for a long day). Overall, I would recommend this trip as it only runs 3 times each year.

4 out of 5 stars

Very convenient using the card for transport & for entry to attractions. No thanks to the typhoon, the 2 collection points at Taipei Main Station were shut. Had to pay for own transport & entrance fee to the National Palace Museum on 4 Oct.
