Standing on shore and appreciating the river view is not special. Have you ever taken a complete look on the beauty of Taipei City on Tamsui River? It is only available on the limited time “Taipei Blue Road” transportation. On Blue Road transportation, you will enjoy the breezy and joyful view along the river, and the magnificently brilliant light from the bridge and shore. All these make it the best choice of your tours in spring time.

Commented by the Taipei Public Transportation Office, Blue Road will offer many new river routes on “holidays” this year such as “River tour at Dadaocheng”, “Dadaocheng to Guandu” and “Dadaocheng to Tamsui old street” at the Dadaocheng Harbor, which is the closest harbor to the central city. At the Xikou Harbor, a place attracting the crowd, there are two river routes, “Xikou river tour” and “Meiti to Xikou”. Other river tours are available at Dajia, Meiti and Guandu harbors. The river tours allow every tourist and city resident to see a different look of Taipei City, and have wonderful holiday life.

Taipei City Blue Road has launched river tour experience projects this year for school "field trips" and "neighborhood resident's activities". Both adults and children can join the river tours, and tour commentary will be provided. River tours are also available at night that tourists can enjoy the night view of Taipei City. This for sure is the best choice of tours for you.
