You can discover unique travel activities andtours guided in Taipei by local Taiwanese people to experiencelocal culture.

We recommend this app to travelers who want to:
- Learn about Taipei local culture
- Meet and become friends with locals
- Create your own tour and travel at your own pace
- Get off the beaten path guidebooks pave

Rather than relying on a guidebook or city guide, this app letsyou directly contact locals and sign up for low-price trips. Itmakes researching and ranking things to do in Taiwan much easier byputting you in the hands of local guides who can take you tonon-touristy spots. Whether you are a solo student or backpackersusing Hipmunk and, staying in a motel or hostel, or a group offamilies or friends using Triposo on vacation, tours are easy,cheap, and personalized based on your budget and schedule. A localwill act as your personal guide, similar to the WhatsApp andAroundMe apps, taking you to unique, nearby locations.

This app, Meetrip, is a travel community marketplace wherelocals act as a city guide and recommend area-specific trips forvisitors to browse. However, where sites such asTripAdvisor,Wikitravel, and Viator only suggest populardestinations, this app allows you to personally contact a guide whowill show you both unknown and famous locations found on TIMEmagazine’s Top 10 things to do in Taipei, as well as a non-newstourist agency guides like Lonely Planet, Rough Guides, TripIt, andmTrip. Traveling has never been easier. Often called “The Airbnb ofsightseeing,” this app takes the pressure away from navigating acity guide, blog, map, or tourist brochure. Once your trip isfinished, you can leave a comment or recommendation in the userreview section to help future travelers.

Sites such as Expedia, Priceline, Kayak, Agoda, and Booking.com,exist so you can find inexpensive flights. CouchSurfing andhostels.com were created to give you convenient housing optionswhile travelling. You could plan a budget trip using XE Currency,Wikitude, SayHi Translate, and UrbanSpoon to get a taste of localculture, but navigating a new city is difficult. Even if you areable to use Avis, Enterprise, Rent-a-car, or Hertz to get a carrental abroad, it is much easier to have a local show you aroundusing public transportation. If you want a hassle-free,unforgettable day trip, you should download this free app. Forgetthe city guide, let locals give you a taste of the wonders ofTaiwan, far beyond what you can find in an ordinary travelguide.
