The closest major city is Taipei. Fortunately, Keelung is very easy to reach from Taipei and other cities in northern Taiwan.

There are a lot of things to do in Keelung! Keelung is a port city with a unique vibe, check out this blog post about the top 5 things to do in our beautiful city.

Taipei to Keelung City is about 30 minutes depending on the mode of transportation. You can catch buses 2088A, 1579B, and 1800 from Taipei City Hall Bus Station or take the train from Taipei Main Station

Keelung is nicknamed the Rainy City, so be prepared for some rain and bring an umbrella or a raincoat.

We offer a range of walking tours, most of which are premised on us sharing the culture, food, and history of our city with you. Currently, we offer our special Midnight Fish Market Tour, as well as a Cultural Adventure and a Night Market Food Tour.

An English-Chinese local guide, a personal headset, local food and drinks, and KFW designed map brochure. We use headsets not only to make it easier for participants but because it is far less disruptive to the locals than talking over a loudspeaker.

In order to provide our Keelung-for-a-walk Tour with the best quality by accessing the attendance beforehand, prior online registration is needed.
