Luye Township

Avoiding the holiday crowds, I rode my scooter alone to the Luye High Platform for a paragliding challenge! 🪂 ✔️ Enrollment terms and conditions with insurance ✔️ Clean equipment and attire ✔️ Detailed flight instruction video ✔️ Safety measures carefully reviewed and confirmed ✔️ GoPro filming (optional) Filming started as soon as I got off the scooter and started getting dressed - the instructor even made a video ending the session. They also recommended a nearby hot spring trip (Luye has hot springs too!). The experience was flawless. Thank you to the instructors for their attentive guidance; I even had a small challenge of circling in the sky – very safe indeed! 🌞 I'll definitely bring my friends to try it again.

We had different drivers for the two days, so I can't guarantee everyone would be professional. However, I highly recommend our driver and guide, Xiao Wei, for today's trip. He was polite, friendly, professional, and patient. He explained a lot about Taitung along the way and interacted with the passengers appropriately, making the entire trip very rewarding and showing his love for Taitung. He managed the time very well and timed his tours perfectly. In the afternoon, when we were tired, he reduced the interaction accordingly. I think he's an experienced and excellent guide, and I hope to have the opportunity to travel with him in Taitung again next time. My two elders praised his professionalism highly. The food he recommended was also delicious! I highly recommend the Longitudinal Valley Line tour we took today. There were some changes to the itinerary, but the driver was very professional, so everything went smoothly.
