Experience Taipei After Dark Through Food, Drinks, and Local Drinks
Step into Taipei’s vibrant night market culture on a relaxed, social food tour designed around the way locals actually dine. Rather than rushing between bites, you’ll settle in, share dishes, raise a glass, and discover the stories behind the flavors that make Taiwan’s food scene so beloved.
Guided by a local host, you'll explore the historic streets of Dihua street and Ningxia Night Market while enjoying a carefully curated selection of Taiwanese specialties. Along the way, pair your meal with local drinks, including a taste of Kinmen Kaoliang, Taiwan’s iconic sorghum spirit.
With 12+ tasters, small-group setting, and plenty of time to eat and drink, this after-dark experience offers a deeper look into Taipei’s food culture than a typical night market visit.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We meet upstairs at Exit 3 of Beimen MRT station (street level), just as you come up from the escalator!
We finish at Ningxia Night Market, easy access to subways, supermarkets and other locations.

1Dihua Street
Dihua Street is one of Taipei’s oldest trading streets, with roots going back to the Qing dynasty. It has long been a centre for tea, herbs, dried goods, and fabrics, and many of those family run businesses are still operating today. We walk you through the parts locals actually use, meeting real vendors and tasting everyday foods. You experience the smells, sounds, and small details that make this street feel alive and genuinely local, not staged for tourists.
