Private Taipei Day Tour including Taipei 101, Din Tai Fung and Hot Spring Experience

We'll start at the top, literally, with a high-altitude view of everything from the observatory of Taipei 101. You'll have ample time to both learn about the building itself and take in the gorgeous views of your surroundings. Afterward, we'll head downstairs for a leisurely lunch at Michelin rated Din Tai Fung, where you'll eat your fill of the restaurant's world famous xiao long bao ("little dragon dumplings").
After lunch, we'll take you to the geothermic Beitou district, home to Taipei's best Japanese style bath houses, first used as centers of entertainment and leisure by Japanese colonial officials then kamikaze pilots on the night before their final missions. You'll soak in the area's healing waters for an hour before being brought back to your accommodation.
Please note that soaking in hot springs isn't recommended for pregnant women, people with heart conditions or other serious medical conditions.

Start your day at 10am with a pickup by your private guide at your Taipei hotel and whisk away in comfortable private vehicle to Taipei 101 located at the city center. Catch breathtaking view of Taipei amidst towering mountains and sweeping coastlines from the lofty observatories deck of 1,253 feet (382 meters) above sea level on 89th floor. You will also learn about the unique engineering and construction of this skyscraper that houses the world’s largest wind-damper, a massive 1.6 million pounds (800 tons) sphere located near the top of the building to prevent collapsing in the event of an earthquake. You will have ample time to enjoy the gorgeous view.

Around lunch time, heading over to Din Tai Fung, a world famous steamed dumpling chain restaurant with its roots here in Taipei. Founded in 1958, Din Tai Fung has expanded across the globe from Seattle to Dubai today. Spend approximately an hour and a half at Din Tai Fung to savor mouthwatering Xiao Long Bao.

Then, make your way to Beitou for a relaxing dip in hot spring at your very own private bath. Beitou, located in the far North of the city, is the most hilly district of Taipei. Its hot spring culture emerged during the Japanese colonial occupation of Taiwan. Since then, many bath houses have been established. These hot spring bath houses, also known as onsen in Japanese, are once the center of entertainment and leisure for kamikaze pilots and Japanese colonials. Here, you will find traces of Japanese Zen that influenced the culture of Taiwan. Relax yourself and enjoy zen atmosphere of the hot spring resort.

At the end of this tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel where this exciting experience concludes.
