Local guides to lead the way

Taipei is a city with several distinct personalities: it’s simultaneously a 21st-century entertainment hub, a historic and cultural gem, and a peaceful oasis of forested landscapes at the doorstep of the modern city. With a local insider to lead your Taipei walking tour, you’ll get to experience the full picture. A Taipei culture walking tour with City Unscripted shows you the Taiwanese capital far beyond your guidebook. Our local guides, handpicked for their passion, take you on walking tours that highlight the best of the hometown, from tranquil temples to the top street food stalls.

A walk between worlds

At just three centuries old, Taipei is one of the youngest cities in Asia. At first glance, its sprawling cityscape and towering skyscrapers paint the picture of a modern marvel. But on a walking tour of Taipei, you’ll uncover snapshots of tangible history embedded in the fabric of the city. Stroll along streets hiding centuries-old Taoist temples, Japanese-era mansions and old merchant villas on a walking tour in Taipei. Between the old and new halves of this dynamic metropolis, both inextricably linked, Taipei walking tours are the closest you’ll get to traveling through time.

Taste the best of Taipei

What would a walking tour in Taipei be without sampling some of its local delicacies at one of the iconic night markets that crop up after dusk? On a walking food tour in Taipei with us, you could get swept up in the hungry crowds heading towards the chaotic, crisscrossing lanes of a night market. From our “Eat like a local in Taipei” experience to a “Street food experience in Taipei’s night market” tour, a walking food tour in Taipei gives you an authentic snapshot of the local lifestyle that’s 100 percent unique to the city. Just tell us what you want to taste, and we’ll make it happen.

Alice did a great job! She listened to what we wanted to experience and tailored our time to that. I missed her first email so she did a great job following up with me on WhatsApp to make sure that we connected timely.
