Black Friday
Raohe Night Market, Taipei, Taiwan

Street food delights and luscious countryside in Taiwan

Taiwan is arguably the most LGBTQ-friendly country in all of Asia, becoming the continent’s first country to achieve marriage equality in 2019. The heart of the queer community here very much lies in the capital, Taipei, which has an incredible nightlife and is home to the largest Pride march in all of Asia. Our nine-day loop tour of Taiwan starts and ends in the capital, where you’ll be able to sample the city’s bustling night markets and take a Taiwanese cooking class. The meat of the sandwich is a pretty comprehensive tour of the island, stopping off at the serene Sun Moon Lake, the unique cities of Taichung, Tainan and Kaohsiung, and the stunning rock formations of Taroko Gorge. You’ll return to Taipei via a stunning coastal train ride and an environmentally friendly sky-lantern experience in Shifen.
