Guishan Island & Indigo Dyeing Experience Tour
For foreign-language tour guide service, an additional fee of NT$2,500 per vehicle will be charged.
Starting from Yilan, dedicate a day to immerse yourself in both marine wonders and local culture: Head to Wushih Harbor in Toucheng to board a boat and set sail. Along the way, admire the unique geological wonders of Guishan Island from the sea. With professional arrangements, search for traces of whales and dolphins in the ocean, experiencing firsthand the vitality and charm of the marine ecosystem in the Northeast Coast waters. In the afternoon, shift to a local community. Visit Fucheng Community's "Wanran Workshop" to experience indigo dyeing DIY, paired with community afternoon tea. This allows your trip to be more than just sightseeing; you can also personally bring home a piece of Yilan's aesthetic lifestyle. Finally, stroll along Toucheng Old Street, listening as a guide recounts local stories and cultural contexts. From the sea to the streets, fully experience Toucheng's multi-layered scenery. Additionally, upon request, the whale and dolphin watching itinerary can be adjusted to include a visit to Guishan Island to explore its ecosystem, offering flexibility that better aligns with your travel expectations.
