Departure Point

Traveler pickup is offered

Your personal driver-guide will wait for you at the hotel lobby / b&b entrance with a sign (YOLO Taiwan + lead traveler name)

  • Yin Yang Sea, Ruifang, Taiwan
    Watch the bay where the sea is a mix of yellow and blue before heading to Jiufen.
    10 minutes
  • Jinguashi 13 Ruins, Ruifang, Taiwan
    The Remains of the 13 Levels is a former smelter plant in Lianxin Village, Ruifang District, New Taipei, Taiwan. It is also called the Potala Palace of Mountain Mines.
    10 minutes
  • Golden Waterfall, Ruifang, Taiwan
    Golden Waterfall is located in Jinguashi. Although real gold flowing from these falls would be too good to be true, the water is certainly a beautiful gold color as a result of the combination of regular rainfall in this mining area and the abundance of heavy metal elements deposited in the riverbed.
    10 minutes
  • Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street), Ruifang, Taiwan
    With an unmatched old town atmosphere and seaside flair, Jiufen is a must see spot when visiting northern Taiwan. Always teeming with tourists, you might notice that Japanese people make up a huge proportion of the crowds gathered. Many are keen to catch a glimpse of the setting of Hayao Miyazaki's Academy Award winning “Spirited Away”, especially the iconic red lanterns. This is also a film mecca for lovers of Taiwanese film, especially fans of Hou Hsiao-hsien's “A City of Sadness”, which utilized Jiufen as the backdrop to the events of the 228 Incident. Given Hou’s recent award of Best Director in the 2015 International Cannes Film Festival for his new film “The Assassin”, we expect even more people will make their way here in years to come.
    90 minutes
  • Shifen Waterfall, Pingxi, Taiwan
    Shifen Waterfall is the most renowned cascading waterfall in Taiwan. The watercourse is from Keelung River, height 20 m. (66 ft.) and width 40 m. (131 ft.).
    40 minutes
  • Shifen Old Street, Pingxi, Taiwan
    Shifen Old Street is a bustling hub for those eager to get a glimpse of an old railroad town which still retains the charm of yesteryear. Originally built to transport coal, the Shifen Old Street stop has now become one of the most popular on the Pingxi rail-line. It is easy to see why so many are drawn here - local food, souvenir shops and puffing trains add to the charm of this little gem, as well as make it a fantastic place for photography.

Great combination of natural beauty, food and culture. Our guide was great. He was full of local knowledge and fielded every question I threw at him. Very gracious.

Jiufen is hard to get to - so booking a private car with chauffer proved to be highly useful. Once you do get there, the views are quite breathtaking, making it worthwhile.
