9 Hours Layover in Taiwan/Taipei | EVA Air

Taiwan has so many things to offer. Other than the main city -Taipei, they also have provincial places not too far from the city. 9 hours is not enough to explore The Heart of Asia, but my 9 hours layover was well spent in Taipei. Getting a tour guide isn't necessary if you have a longer layover but is more convenient due to the travel time from the airport to the city, and from place to place.

I highly recommend Aaron if you are looking for a tour guide in Taiwan. You can message him at the following:

Dear Jessa,

Your forgotten childhood wish partially came true lol (Yes, partially lol. I am a proud Filipino. Being Taiwanese is not on my wishlist anymore lol) 7-year old Jessa might faint of happiness if she found out that you explored the Heart of Asia, even for a short period of time. Just another reminder that nothing is impossible. :)

You randomly booked a tour without any expectations. You explored the city with a stranger for 6 hrs and became friends, and learned a lot about the city. You usually overthink way too much, but I'm proud of you for being sponty and just going with the flow this time.

Always remember that having a plan is good, but sometimes you have to loosen up too, go with the flow, and have fun!!! Easily said to be done, especially if finances are the main worry. But keep note that experiences/memories are your greatest investment. :)

Keep exploring Jessa and see you again Taiwan.

Love,
Jessa 2023

Hello Jessa! Thank you for taking the time and care to put this informative video together. My husband and I ended up contacting Aaron and had a great few hours exploring Taipei City during our layover. We got to experience so much more in our short time in this fabulous city. We really appreciated the travel tips.

Na miss ko tuloy yung Taiwan. I went there for 3 days 2 nights nung 2019. Your video makes me wanna go back there paguwi ko this year sa Pilipinas :D

Thank you for the wonderful video :)

[midweekrobins]

wow you managed to do so much in such a short amount of time!! I've been trying to figure out how to make the most of a 16 hour overnight layover but you've definitely given me some good ideas :)

Hi. How much did you aron for the tour?

[bellety]

Hi! How much did you pay for the tour guide?

[louelaagbay-bellezas]

Thanks God i found your vlog. We will have our first vacation to Philippines from NZ. My worries was the 9 hour layover, but after watching your vlog now i will have some confidence. Just to make sure no visa required right when going out to Taipe, you just need to fill out an arrival card?

Great video, we have a 9 hour layover next year at Taiwan, we are stuck between going out to the city or just book a lounge. Did you find it was a bit of a rush? For me I always like being in the airport 3 hours before the flight.

I will also have a 10-hour layover in Taiwan before my flight to Manila. Where can I find the EVA Air staff to inform them that I’ll just pick my checked luggage in Manila? Thanks!

[lemontrees]

I have a genuine question. I'm leaving for Manila in a few days and I have a layover in Taiwan. Did you book two separate flights or the First destination-TPE-MNL option? I wanna leave Taoyuan cos i have an 8h layover and I wanna see my cousin there. I've been getting mixed reviews about my flight and layovers. Thank you!

[suzettefairbank]

Thanks for the video! What month did you go?

[xaxcxx]

You are a brave young woman!!!! 😅 tell your ate Reina yung tour guide mo!

[aprillygrace]

Thanks for this vlog. This is what exactly inwas looking for. Was getting out and in from/to the airport difficult?

[schanNYC]

For the layover did you have to pick up your checked baggage or does it go directly to your next flight?

[valinedeleon]

hi! cool video btw :) I just want to ask, did you have to pay for any dues/taxes since you went out of the airport? thank you!

[jordyramirez]

I’m so excited for my 9hr layover in Taiwan this week😭. Was the process getting back inside the airport difficult?

[believetrustsurrender]

Hello, I watcuyoir video because I am looking for a guide for a layover in Taiwan, very nice. How did you find your tourguide for a day Aaron? And is he still available doing a day tour guide?

[maijason]

Great job.. you made it... Love to see your video

[alexandraalvarez]

This was so helpful!

Question, What is the name of the agency that Aaron works for? I messaged him directly but in case he is not available I want to be able to book through the same agency! I just booked a last minute trip to Asia and have a 10 hour layover in Taipei!

[gutsbriones]
