Taipei Foodie Private Tour

About this activity

Taiwan is an undisputed foodie’s paradise, recognized by Michelin guides, Netflix series, and international food blogs. But any Taiwanese person will tell you that the best way to eat in Taipei is with a local. Let our English-proficient guide take you on a tour through the food mecca of Taipei, starting at the first boba(bubble) milk tea shop to taste the well-known drink original from Taiwan. Then, follow our steps to taste the Taiwanese stir-fry dishes. No food tour would be completed without a trip to one of Taiwan's traditional night markets, so eat your heart out before returning to the island's internationally- praised metro system after ending your feast.

Itinerary

Join your own private, English-speaking guide on an evening food journey through Taipei — no groups, just you and a local expert. Start with a taste of Taiwan's original bubble milk tea inside a beautifully repurposed heritage site, then feast on sizzling Taiwanese stir-fry dishes and cold beer at a beloved neighborhood restaurant, on one of the city's most famous stir-fry streets. Along the way, wander through a quiet, atmospheric old lane before arriving at one of Taipei's liveliest night markets, where your guide treats you to a local specialty and points you toward the best street food in town.
