InsideAsia has launched Taiwan as its newest destination, introducing seven itineraries including standalone journeys and tour options combining the country with Japan and South Korea.

Taiwan is emerging as a compelling option for travellers seeking cultural depth, renowned cuisine and diverse landscapes in a compact and accessible format.

Alastair Donnelly, Inside Travel Co-Founder, said Taiwan was a destination that had gone largely unnoticed by Western travellers.

“Taiwan has thousands of years of history, rich stories from multiple indigenous groups, an innovative political culture, unbelievable cuisine and a tea culture to rival Japan. Hiking lovers can explore rugged coastlines and steep mountain peaks, and from night markets to bullet trains and incredibly welcoming people, it’s everything you could want from a destination,” Mr Donnelly said.

Grant Ekelund, Inside Travel Taiwan Development Manager, said the island offered remarkable diversity despite its compact size.

“Travellers can explore centuries-old temples, experience traditional tea culture, discover Indigenous heritage, cycle around Sun Moon Lake and enjoy one of Asia’s most celebrated food scenes, all within a single journey. For those familiar with Japan or South Korea, Taiwan offers a unique but complementary perspective on the region,” Mr Ekelund said.

Taiwan’s layered history reflects Indigenous heritage alongside Chinese, Japanese and European influences, creating a destination where tradition and modern life intersect at every turn.

The new collection of itineraries spans family travel, culinary culture, adventure, luxury and stopover options via Japan and South Korea.
