Taipei driver
We will be staying in Taipei for 3-4 weeks and wanted to see if anyone knew of a driver we could hire during our trip. We have little children so it would be nice to have someone that could drive us around when we are there. I figure we could use this person most of the time we are in Taipei. Thanks!

I have two reliable drivers: one with Mercedes, the other is a hatchback [taxi]. Slightly cheaper for the hatchback but since he is taxi, not sure if you can use him 24/7. Both charge at competitive prices.

Caveat - neither speaks English. PM if you want the names and phone numbers.

Public transport is so good in Taipei I really wouldnt think you need a driver because they make it so easy to use and everything you can get in English too.

Most of the taxi will give you his name card. So you can hire them. I found 1 driver who speak decent English and also Japanese as he worked in factory before. I need to check if I can find his name card.

I engaged 宋初国 Mr Song (Contact No: 0982-258-878 / 0956-258-878) for transfer from airport to hotel and vice-versa. Nice and friendly man, and he told us that he owns a cab company too. You can try asking him if he takes tours
