Best Time to Visit

Discover Taiwan's seasonal delights in this subtropical paradise.

Taiwan's climate plays a significant role in shaping your Taiwan trip. The island experiences a subtropical climate with distinct seasons that each offer a unique charm.

What Each Season Brings

Choose the best time for your vacation based on what you want to experience the most of. Here’s what each season will bring:

Spring

Spring (March to May) welcomes you with a pleasant warmth, where the temperatures range from 20°C to 25°C. It's a time when the cherry blossoms bloom, painting the landscapes with delicate hues of pink and white, especially enchanting in places like Alishan and Yangmingshan National Park.

Summer

Summer (June to August) is hot and humid, with temperatures soaring above 30°C. It's also the season of typhoons, which may bring heavy rains. Despite the weather challenges, summer hosts vibrant festivals like the Dragon Boat Festival, which adds a lively spirit to your Taiwan trip.

Autumn

Autumn (September to November) is arguably the best time to visit Taiwan. The weather is comfortable, with temperatures between 25°C and 30°C, and the typhoon season starts to wane. The clear skies and pleasant weather make it ideal for outdoor explorations and enjoying Taiwan's natural beauty.

Winter

Winter (December to February) is mild and cool, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 20°C. It's the time when the Pingxi Lantern Festival lights up the skies, creating a magical atmosphere. The cool weather is perfect for hot spring visits, a popular activity in Taiwan.

Each season in Taiwan unfolds a different facet of the island's beauty. Whether it's the serene spring, lively summer, pleasant autumn, or the tranquil winter, your Taiwan Vacation will be adorned with unique experiences that resonate with the rhythm of nature.

Kimberly Brown from Goway Travel made my trip to Australia & New Zealand a very memorable and remarkable experience. Every step and detail was fantastic and I will never forget the trip of a lifetime and it was because of the experience of Kimberly. If you are thinking about taking a trip to New Zealand and Australia, I highly recommend contacting Kimberly from Goway travel. David Klein

We had a blast and felt covered by GoAway throughout. This was our first time using a travel agent and Melissa and her team made it easy. I also appreciated the quick communication while on our trip. I only wish that we got our official itinerary and tickets sooner as we did not receive them until a week prior. But it is busy season so I understand. Courtney McCarthy

Elise created a fantastic trip to South Africa. Our experience could not have been better. Thank You so Much!!Dave McVay

Our trip to Japan was great. All our Goway arrangements preformed like clockwork and the guides for the tours were wonderful. Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji was in total fog but at least the lunch was very good and so was the drum solo, also our tour guide kept our spirits up ( she was the best). Taryn picked hotels that were very convenient to the meeting point of our tours which was much appreciated and organized all aspects of our trip perfectly. So from our airport pickup to our last day in Tokyo everything ran very smoothly so we have used Goway before and will certainly use it again and reccommend Goway to others.JW

We have used Goway Travel for previous trips and have been very happy with their excellent service. Our last trip to New Zealand and Australia was no exception. Our agent, Lori Mazzono, got tuned into the sort of trip we were hoping to have immediately. The various booking she provided were, without exception, exceptional and exactly what we envisioned, We really don't think we would have changed anything. tBruce Belshaw

Mary was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was incredibly responsive and quick to assist with every update and change my clients made throughout the planning process. Her expertise was invaluable, from recommending the perfect resorts to advising on the best way to travel between the islands. My clients loved every moment of their trip, especially their resort stays and overwater bungalow experiences. As this was their honeymoon, creating a seamless and memorable journey was so important, and Mary exceeded expectations. They rated their experience a 5 out of 5 and could not have been happier. Thank you, Mary, for your outstanding support and attention to detail. I truly appreciated your partnership and would not hesitate to work with you again for future South Pacific Island bookings. I am from the TravelStore in Fresno.Jenn W

We had an exceptional experience with Goway Travel on our recent trip to Africa. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed, which made the entire journey stress-free. The recommendations on where to go and what to do were absolutely fantastic! Each stop felt perfectly curated and exceeded our expectations. It was clear that Goway truly understands the destinations they offer and knows how to create a memorable, well-balanced itinerary. A special thank you to our travel consultant, Bijal, who was outstanding throughout the entire process. Bijal was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive while we prepared for the trip, ensuring that all our questions were answered and that every detail was taken care of. Their guidance made a big difference in building our confidence and excitement leading up to the trip. I would highly recommend Goway Travel to anyone looking for a seamless, expertly planned travel experience. We will definitely be using them again for our future adventures! Harjit C
