Hualien Mountain & Sea One-Day Tour
An additional NT$750 per person will be charged if a foreign-language guide is required.
Hualien's elongated terrain makes it challenging to visit both the Rift Valley and coastal highlights within a limited time. The "Hualien Mountains and Sea Day Tour" breaks through time constraints with a one-day itinerary, starting from the city and connecting mountain secrets, pastoral waterscapes, and the spectacular Pacific coastline. This allows visitors on short stays or those who haven't visited in a while to experience Hualien's most classic mountain and sea scenery all at once. The tour includes admission to the Yunshanshui Botanical Garden, where you can stroll amidst the dreamy lake and lush bald cypress trees. Lunch is enjoyed around the Guangfu Sugar Factory, allowing you to experience local culture. In the afternoon, the coastal route takes you to explore the Shitiping sea erosion platform, the Shimen March Cave, and the Dashibishan Trail, offering close-up views of coastal geology and vast ocean vistas. The tour primarily uses a nine-seater vehicle, accompanied by a Mandarin-speaking guide and insurance, ensuring a relaxed and worry-free journey through Hualien's mountains and sea.
