Observatory decks, museum entries and the odd combined pass. The 13 below are compared on what they actually cover, whether entry is timed and how much the skip-the-line version is really worth.
Taipei 101 Observatory review: fast elevator, 360-degree city views, damper display, ticket tips, sunset timing, and fast-track value.
“The elevator! It’s a long queue! But over all we love it!”
Save time at Taipei 101 with priority elevator access, 360-degree city views, sunset scenery, and a close look at the tower’s giant damper.
“Taipei 101 was beautiful.. the complain I have is that I have been given the wrong address multiple times on multiple trips by Get Your Guide.. I have been to Thailand, same experience.. address was wrong, Singapore was the same.. Taiwan just kind of my breaking point- very inconvenient experience to have to always call them and when you call the activity provider, they do not always answer l”

“The visit to Geo park is the only interesting thing in this program. The falls and shopping strip are waste of time. I would prefer to spend more time at the Geo park”

Compare imperial Chinese art and Taiwan’s Indigenous cultures at two Taipei museums with one $12 ticket, including the Jadeite Cabbage.
