Taiwan Railways will offer four uniquely themed cruise-style train tour packages in spring (2018) between April and June. These itineraries feature stops at some of the most popular destinations, including the Bishiliyan Jimmy Liao Art Park, Renshan Botanical Garden, Changhua Fan-Shaped Roundhouse, Yilan Push-Pull Train, and Taitung Railway Art Village. The all-inclusive cruise-style train tour packages include transportation, meals, accommodation, sightseeing, as well as guided tours with dedicated staff—providing a great option for those who are usually too busy to arrange their own travel plans.
