Best way to see Taroko and East Coast?

Hi,

I’m new to this forum and going to visit Taiwan in July/August. My question is, how can I get to Hualien from Taipei? Are there English tours that go to Taroko gorge? I am female and coming solo. I want to see the east coast. Is there a bus from Hualien to Taidong? I don’t know if I want to rent a car because I won’t be able to see much while driving.

Any advice is appreciated from those that have done it. I hear and read that this area is stunning. I’m coming from Korea and want to be able to see the natural scenery in Taiwan. Thanks,

By bus, train or plane.

Yes

You should pick up a copy of the Lonely Planet guide for Taiwan. It will save you a lot of stress, money and time.
