Taoyuan Airport to Taipei: MRT or Taxi?

Start with the booked hotel entrance, not the airport-to-station time. When trains are running and the hotel connection is manageable, begin with Express MRT to A1 Taipei Main. Compare Commuter MRT for a stop Express skips or a useful later departure. Choose a direct taxi or prebooked transfer when fewer luggage moves and an easier hotel arrival justify the group cost.
