Hmm...which season will you be going? if you are going during summer, you don't have to bring much, like jeans u can bring like 2 is enough,or some short pants, as for clothes, you can buy in Taiwan...

Going to taiwan this year end with 2 friends and we planning not to follow any group tours. Will go for 8day 7night , my planning was like this

day 1 , 2 stay around taipei zhong-xiao east road for club and pub.
day 3 , 4 still looking for hot spring resort. any suggest?
afterward will stay at xi men ding for shopping .

Since we do not follow any group tours i wonder how can we get transport to fetch us around when we changing hotel. And do i need to booking hotel now to avoid full house? Last but no least, taiwan got any driver services like just fetch us all around when we need and giv them a call.

Hot spring bath are all around at Bei Tou. You better book hotel early as most of the hotel will be fully book. What kind of tour guide/driver are u looking at? I have the contact if you want.

Smart way - travel light.. use backpack instead of luggage.. Taipei MRT is still OK bcos almost all having escalators/lift but if you goto older MRT liens such as Tokyo, Beijing and to lesser extend Seoul.. You bring luggage..can suffer heart attack wan haha.. Most older Tokyo stns don't even having excalators or lift and just stairways..haha
