14 CITIES: Ultimate Taiwan DESTINATION travel guide!

Published 2024-07-19
We loved Taiwan so much that we've created this MASSIVE video travel guide. USE THE DESCRIPTION TO NAVIGATE! We've designed this to be used like a video travel book - flip to the "chapter" that you're interested in! These places are mainly grouped by region, and are NOT in the order that we visited them (the order we did them is listed near the bottom of the description). ENJOY!

Each chapter below has links to WHERE WE STAYED AND TICKETS, if applicable. Not sure where to start? Our favorite video sections are Kaohsiung Lotus Pond, Alishan, and Chishang.

THANKS FOR WATCHING! Truly.
