According to the Tourism and Travel Bureau, the striking red double-decker sightseeing bus offers passengers an elevated view of Taichung’s beauty from a fresh perspective. The route passes through the city’s most iconic attractions and night market offering delicacies, with additional perks such as one-way ticket options and a buy-one-get-one-free promotion for travel between Taichung and Taipei. Meanwhile, the sleek aurora-black double-decker dining bus is currently holding a special appreciation campaign, inviting July birthday celebrants to enjoy the unique charm of Taichung through panoramic glass skylights. As the bus travels through the city’s scenic routes, guests can savor afternoon tea or dinner while taking in the stunning views of Taichung’s vibrant day and night landscapes.
According to the Tourism and Travel Bureau, Taichung’s double-decker sightseeing bus passes through some of the city’s most iconic and popular tourist attractions, including Taichung Station, Taichung Park, Calligraphy Greenway Plaza, National Taichung Theater, Maple Garden, and Fengjia Night Market. Each one-way journey takes approximately 50 minutes and operates daily except Mondays. Two ticket options are available for passengers: a one-way ticket priced at NT$200 per person under the current buy-one-get-one-free promotion, and a four-hour unlimited ride pass at NT$300 per person. In addition, Taichung residents can enjoy a buy-one-get-one-free offer on the Taipei Double-Decker Sightseeing Bus one-day pass by presenting their National ID. Conversely, Taipei residents are eligible for a buy-one-get-one-free deal on the Taichung four-hour unlimited ride pass under a joint promotional campaign by both cities.

Currently, a special appreciation campaign is underway: July birthday celebrants who make a reservation with a party of four or more before the end of the month can enter “I am the birthday guest” in the additional notes section of the booking system to receive one bottle of locally brewed Taichung plum wine per guest. For Father’s Day in August, parties of two or more including a father can enter “Happy Father’s Day” in the same section to receive the same gifts.
