— Where the island still has a heartbeat
Taitung Slow Travel
On Taiwan's south-east coast lies its most unhurried county. We travel it with the people who live here — to see world-class mountains, the Pacific, and a Taiwan tourism hasn't flattened.
Taitung is three landscapes in one — the rice-filled East Rift Valley, the village-lined Pacific coast, and the mountain-meets-sea South-Link. Each summer the sky above Luye fills with the Taiwan International Balloon Festival. We don't rush you through any of it. We hand you a single morning, a single meal, a single road — and let it be enough.

Stories —
The places, and what they mean
Chihpen Hot Springs & Red Oolong
The art of doing nothing — Taitung's most famous springs and an afternoon of tea.
Taiwan's Little Nara
A meadow in Luye where the deer walk up to you. No need to fly to Japan.
Taiwan's Last Roadless Coast
Alangyi — the one stretch of shoreline the round-island highway was never allowed to finish.
The Angel's Teardrop
Jiaming Lake, 3,310 m up — a mirror of the sky you earn over three days on foot.
Who we plan for
Families
See the balloons without the heat or the hassle — early-morning launches, a deer meadow, hot-spring afternoons. Kids run wild; parents actually rest.
Couples
No groups, no rushing. A private car, a wellness hot spring, a pot of red oolong, and a morning you wake to on your own time.
Small groups (6–8)
Corporate rewards and incentive trips — a private van, deer-view or hot-spring suites, a local chef's table. Discreet, and handled end to end.
