WildTaiwan

Taiwan is an island that has it all: ancient temples stand shoulder-to-shoulder with gleaming skyscrapers, while the aroma of tantalising street food wafts through narrow night market alleys. Sapphire waters crested by pristine beaches pulse with a kaleidoscope of exotic marine life, while wild monkeys and boars roam free, and the blue magpie soars overhead in the misty forest and hidden waterfalls of the Central Mountain Range. Taiwan’s residents of vibrant cities, towns and villages hold the key to the island’s charming culture. The soulful chanting of incense-filled temples, echoes of busy fishmongers and the song of indigenous tribes contribute to the intoxicating symphony of old and new Taiwan.

WildTaiwan believe that this land of profound natural and cultural intrigue should be lived through real experiences that bring travellers into the lives of the island’s people. They believe the essence of sustainable travel is putting local people at the heart of all that they do to cultivate human connections and further cultural understanding through travel.

immersive Experiences

Whether it’s vigorous outdoor hiking or uncovering the best off-the-map food stalls, each bespoke experiential journey is designed to ignite curiosity and inspire adventure for the discerning adventurer looking to encounter the lesser-known paths of Taiwan, where centuries-old traditions coexist with cutting-edge innovation, making it a haven for food lovers, nature enthusiasts, and curious explorers alike. Take an 11-day trek through three of the island’s national parks to appreciate Taiwan’s diverse natural landforms including the steaming fumaroles in Yangmingshan National Park and the coral reef rainforest of Kenting National Park. An 8-day journey into the natural landscapes of the eastern coast reveal the jungle-encrusted limestone slopes of Taroko Gorge, the hunter-gatherer techniques of the Bunnun indigenous tribe and the chance to meet an elder of the Amis indigenous tribe on their coffee plantation. Foodie travellers can rejoice in island flavours on a 10-night expedition from north to south covering the range of streets and eats, from famous chefs to hole-in-the-wall local. From high-tech discoveries in Taipei to northern Taiwan’s tea plantations, WildTaiwan carefully craft each itinerary to enchant the adventurer.
