I heard there is an airport taxi that picks people up and takes them to the airport at Tauyuan early in the morning (for those early flights). Anyone know about this?
An internet search is turning up only the really expensive ones, so take a trip to your local travel agents and ask. The travel agencies usually have these guy’s name cards and what not.
good idea…thanks
Recently I took a late flight back from Manila (arriving around 1am). I have read some posts saying their may still be buses outside the terminal back to Taipei. Well in my case there were none to be seen. Outside terminal 1, I was approached by a taxi driver. Wasn’t your typical taxi as this was a nondescript black Mercedes. Anyway, to make a long story short for 1000NT I got a ride from the airport to my home in Mucha (Taipei City). My experience has been that taxi’s take you to a designated point in Taipei City then once there turn on the meter to your final destination. I found this to be a more economical way to get to your destination when options are limited. The drivers name is Vincent Yu. He does airport/touring delivery I imagine he’ll go just about anywhere. I think it is a better option than your normal taxi service. His # 0938-835-588 Mail: vin520829@yahoo.com.tw He speaks English quite well. Was a good driver and I would recommend him. Drives a large/older Mercedes. Had water in the back if I wanted and was a nice alternative to getting home
