【Elephant Mt Sunset Hiking Tour】

Join us for a visit to the Elephant Mountain for the best view of Taipei, observing the 101 skyline from sunset to night! Elephant Mountain not only attracts international tourist but also locals and avid photographers. Our staff will guide you in navigating the Taipei metro system from Ximending to Xinyi district, and dive quickly into nature just doorsteps away from the city center!

【Longshan Temple Tour】

Longshan Temple is one of the most famous and historic temples in Taipei with over 200 years of history. It is a place where generations of locals have come to seek good fortune and good health. On this tour, we focus on the Mongka district, which is the oldest district of Taipei, and uncover its history, architecture and local food like grass jelly and mango shaved ice. 

【Hot Pot Tour】

Join our hot pot tour to eat like a local! Gather with new friends in a round table and dine the Taiwanese way. Our tour is hosted at a traditional stone hot pot restaurant established over 40 years ago. The aroma from fried scallion and garlic, as well as the delicious broth will definitely be remembered for years. Food options include seafood, vegetables and various meats.

【Haircut】

Megan, an aspiring hair stylist has been trained in various salons in New York and Taipei. She finds inspiration in every client she works with, and aims to “give my clients great results as well as memorable experiences.” Megan believes travelling can shape people’s perspective in life and this #astoryforafreehaircut project let her have the opportunity to hear these unique stories.

【Ximending】

Join us for a tour around Ximending district, which is also known as the Harajuku/Shibuya of Taipei. It is not difficult to notice the traces of Japanese culture as it was originally established during the days of Japanese occupation, when it attracted wealthy residents to its theaters and cinemas. Today, Ximending has many shops geared towards the youth. It is one of the most popular entertainment district with excellent shopping, food, karaoke and massages. Ximending is no doubt one of the must visit places in Taipei. On this Meander exclusive tour, we will take you into the alleys of Ximending to not only introduce you its history, but also try out the various local foods you might not otherwise order had you been travelling alone.

【Dadaocheng】

From Meander 1948, we will walk over to Dadaocheng, one of the first flourishing commerce areas in the history of Taipei. Dihua Street, in particular, attracts many tourists since the historical architecture provides glimpses of life in the mid-19th century. The shops there are an interesting mix of dried seafood delicacies, sundries and fabric stores. This tour also visits the hugely popular Xiahai Chenghuang Temple, where we will have a chance to ask the God of Matchmaking for  a star-crossed lover. At the end of the tour, we will enjoy some beer and laughs by the river during sunset

What a great hostel! I've never stayed anywhere so clean and well thought out. The facilities are well designed, spacious and of serious quality, ain't no creaky bunk beds here. The staff are super friendly and helpful, Henry at the front desk is a great resource and super helpful. From the hostel you can pretty much get anywhere, as its location right at the Taipei Main Station as well as been a 5 min walk to the Airport MRT. There's a great coffee shop attached and Harry brews a great coffee!

Front desk staff was polite, helpful, and friendly. Made things very easy for check-in and check-out. Also offered to hold our luggage for the daytime after check-out until our flight in the evening. Would definitely stay here again!

The staff takes extra care to make sure that guests feel comfortable- the facilities are immaculate (frequently, diligently cleaned) and interaction with guests are always with utmost hospitality and courtesy. They also offered kind advice on how to get around and places to visit. The location, a light stroll (~7 min) from the Taipei MRT Station which is accessible from Taoyuan airport, is also very convenient. This is a place you'd think of returning to!

Friendly staff, clean/comfortable rooms and located in convenient area of the city, we had a great stay! This place is 2nd hotel of Meander and it seems to be opened quite recently. The staff were kind and friendly and told us about the places nearby. We particularly liked the common room (though i forgot to take pictures). It felt like being home.
