Hi, here we gather the maximum of information about PRIVATE DRIVERS in TAIWAN with contact info.
This list is constantly updated with feedbacks that we receive. So, don’t forget your contribution! Thanks!
You should contact them personally
- Give your ideal itinerary
- Give your dates
- and ask for a quote, for a price.
At HIKING TAIWAN CLUB we use some of these drivers to go to Xueshan, Yushan and other Baiyue (Top 100 mountains of Taiwan).
We delete from the list the drivers
- who don’t show up
- who dramatically increase their prices at the last minute!
- who waste our time
What is the price for hiring a PRIVATE DRIVER in TAIWAN?
Well, it depends on your itinerary, your dates (there are high-season and low-season) and the number of passengers + big/small luggage (size of the car/van).
We know you all want reliable, friendly, high-quality services and more for very cheap… but ask yourself: in your job, do you provide high-quality services for cheap?
Usually, we get what we pay for.
We already hired a very cheap van… but near the trailhead, we had to get off and PUSH BY HANDS because the van could not climb the road!
We also experienced a very rusty van so we were worried about our safety.
Don’t worry, these kinds of vans are NOT in the list below! ah ah ah
BEWARE of OVERTIME CHARGE! Make your schedule very clear with the driver.

Paul – Private Driver Recommendation & Price
Paul is not the cheapest but he is RELIABLE,

Simon Chen – Private Driver Recommendation
Hi everyone, I would like to recommend a driver (Simon Chen) whom I engaged for a trip to Taiwan recently, through a friend’s recommendation.
I am very pleased with the service
Before the trip, he would discuss the itinerary and make suggestions on places and restaurants to visit
to make the trip more comfortable for my parents,
even giving us tips on what fruits were in season,
helping us to call and book the activities that we would be attending in advance.
He was very friendly and it felt more like a local friend bringing us around rather than a hired private driver.
His car is a very clean and spacious Benz Vito(9 seaters),
and he is based in Taichung.
I engaged him for an 8-day island tour covering Taipei, Taichung, Hualien, Yilan
He was not a calculating sort and did not request extra compensation.
He speaks and replies mostly in Chinese,
Feel the Taiwanese hospitality.
His contact is:

I just wanted to give a shout out to our Taiwan Driver Frank Xie which our family chartered his private car service
I’m not paid for this post and just doing a testimonial for the great service Frank provided to my family, and I also sincerely hope that many would benefit from his service.
He has a large vehicle and would be very comfortable even for a larger family with many members.
For smaller families, there would be ample space for your luggage and shopping purchases added along the trip.
Frank is coming to his early/mid-50s,
If you are looking for a private car driver who can understand English, Frank would be suitable. He has spent a number of years in the US and could understand English and correspond in basic English.
I highly recommend Frank Xie as your Taiwan chartered private car driver. He added much joy and colorful memories to our Taiwan trip.
