A 3-day unlimited ride pass for just under 10,000 yen per person is a great deal. This time, we only used it for two days across three sections: Taipei to Taichung, Taichung to Tainan, and Tainan to Taipei, but even that was cheaper than the regular price. It would be even more economical if you rode it extensively for three days. What's more, the purchase method is simple: you buy it online and receive a voucher. This time, after arriving at Taipei Station from Taoyuan Airport via the MRT, we went straight to the high-speed rail counter, received our 3-day pass from the voucher, and booked our tickets to Taichung Station for the next morning. After sightseeing in Taichung the next day, we purchased tickets to Tainan at Taichung Station, and upon arrival at Tainan Station, booked our tickets to Taipei Station for the following day, successfully completing our entire trip as planned. This 3-day pass requires face-to-face interaction at a counter rather than using vending machines or automatic ticket gates, so we were able to manage with broken English and written Chinese characters, which was reassuring. We had to show our passports (one per person) at each step of the process, but it was reassuring to know that we could purchase our tickets without any problems.
If you've been to larger aquariums like those in Okinawa or Osaka, Xpark's scale and exhibits might not be particularly impressive.
However, its advantage lies in its metropolitan location, making it easily accessible without needing to plan a long trip.
We entered as part of the first group at 10 AM on Saturday, and it was already quite crowded; some exhibits were a bit cramped.
I don't think the ticket price is cheap, but using the KKday e-ticket was very convenient. No need to exchange for separate tickets; just scan the code to enter, and the process was very smooth.
I used it for both the outbound and return journeys, and exchanging the ticket at the counter was incredibly easy. I was surprised to find that both trains were completely full. Advance reservations are definitely necessary, and the discounts are fantastic.
The fare was 749 yuan. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and spacious. The music played quietly and wasn't noisy. The driver provided excellent assistance with loading and unloading luggage, drove smoothly, and the price was reasonable.
I used this ticket because I couldn't use the train due to my round-trip overnight flight (LCC).
The bus was comfortable, and using the ticket was no problem; it was very convenient. I will use it again.
The car was very clean, and the driver was nice and punctual!
Plus, it was very cheap. Highly recommend it…
