Taipei Airport Transfer — Private Car from TPE | Fixed Price

Frequently asked questions

Is the Taoyuan MRT or a private car better from Taipei Airport?

The Taoyuan MRT (TWD 160, 35–40 min to Taipei Main Station) is best for a solo traveller near a central metro station. A private car is better for groups of 2–3, heavy luggage, late-night arrivals, and hotels in Xinyi or Da'an that require a further taxi from the station.

How long does it take to get from Taipei Airport to the city at night?

Late-night arrivals typically take 40–50 minutes to Xinyi or Da'an with minimal traffic. The Taoyuan MRT runs until approximately 23:40. For arrivals after midnight, a pre-booked private car is the only reliable direct option.
