Tour Overview
Experience Taipei from the breeze of its dedicated riverside bikeway. As golden hour softens the city heat, we pedal along car-free paved paths flanking the Keelung River, gliding past illuminated bridges and sunset skyline vistas before ending at the foot of iconic Rainbow Bridge for wood-fired Raohe Night Market street food.
Taipei boasts over 100 kilometers of protected riverside cycling paths, yet international visitors often miss them due to YouBike 2.0 app registration hurdles. Your host handles bike unlocking and EasyCard ride access, guides you through flat, leisurely cycling routes away from street traffic, and leads you right to Raohe’s finest Michelin Bib Gourmand pepper buns and iced drinks.
