Taoyuan Airport to Taipei City Transportation

Taoyuan International Airport is well connected to Taipei City by various transportation options. The Airport MRT takes 45 minutes to the city centre with departing every 15 minutes, while buses offer an economical and sometimes 24-hour service. Taxis and private car like UBER are safe and reasonably priced, if you are carrying multiple pieces of luggage, we highly recommend taking a taxi to avoid the transfer time between the MRT.
