Tour Plan

Day 01: Dalat Arrival

On your arrival at the airport, our tour guide and driver will wait for you at the gate and transfer you to the city and check in at the hotel. There are some great history, cultural heritage and natural highlights to visit and explore in Dalat. You will visit local markets in the area, Bao Dai’s Summer Palace III, Truc Lam Meditation Pagoda, or Linh Phuoc Dragon Pagoda and Domain de Marie church. For architectural enthusiasts, there is the Crazy House and the Railway station. And overnight in Dalat.

This one day trip starts to the south of Dalat City. We drive along picturesque scenic roads to the trailhead, where we start our journey. At the practice slope, you’ll learn the basics of knot tying, harness wearing, hardware, and proper rappelling technique. After the guides are satisfied that you’ve got it down, you’ll head down your first rappel! It is an exciting 15-meter descent into the water at the base of a waterfall. Then continue navigating your way down the canyon and enjoy the natural water slides as many times as you want. Keep hiking along the trail through the rainforest and a couple of water crossing to the second rappel down a waterfall – a slightly more technical rappel.

A short break on the top of this one to enjoy a picnic lunch to charge energy first before rappelling down this waterfall. After this, there’s an opportunity to throw yourself 10 meters off the rock into a pool of water below. And finally the most difficult rappel, affectionately known as “The Washing Machine”. Then a 20-minute hike up the hill to bring you out of the canyon and meet the vehicle to get back to the hotel.

This 30km bike ride and sightseeing along the way is for riders who are looking for easy mountain biking and the best countryside out of Dalat as well as it’s famous local attractions We start the ride from Dalat and heads out to the southwest past Cam Ly fall and this is where you warm up your legs with a couple of small hills and one big hill on paved road before enjoying some great downhills with some steep descents on big dirt road through pine forest.

After this long downhill section, we connect into a local village of the K’ho ethnic tribe and heads into the awesome single track through coffee plantations and vegetation farms. Then we keep riding on to the main paved road out of Ta Nung village. From here we continue our ride through easy rolling hills and enjoy local attractions along the way including a cricket farm, rice wine making factory, a local silk throwing factory to see the whole process of how silk is made. After the 30 km mark, we arrive at Elephant waterfalls where we finish our ride and enjoy a picnic lunch set up here. Lunch consists of fresh veggies and fruits, baguettes with an assortment of toppings and a French-style pastry to satisfy your sweet tooth. Dalat is known as the vegetable garden of Vietnam and lunch offers you a chance to try some of Dalat’s tasty produce. After lunch, your guide will take you for a walk down the waterfalls to feel the power of this wonderful area. Then enjoy your free time at Linh An pagoda nearby followed by a giant Buddha statue on the back side of it before taking a vehicle transfer back to Dalat city. Overnight in Dalat.

This journey to Nha Trang starts with a 50-minute transfer 40 kilometers to the northeast of Dalat on a new road and through the newest national park in Vietnam (Bidoup Nui Ba Park). It offers fantastic cycling in the highlands as well as down a 30-kilometer pass to the lowlands. This downhill section is continuous ~ no joke.

The first section of the ride starts in the pine forest and rolls through the hills with beautiful views of farms, countryside, and Bidoup Mountain. There is one final 2-kilometer climb to the top of the pass before some serious downhill. The 30 kilometer, an uninterrupted downhill section is the longest section of downhill we offer. And the longest we have been able to find. After reaching the bottom of the pass we meet Shamrock Rafting (our partners in this trip) and climb off the bikes and into the inflatable 2 man kayaks, purpose made for the kinds of rapids we encounter on the Cai River. This river forms from the many tributaries flowing out of the mountains we have just ridden down. We float down the river for a half an hour or so before stopping off at a small farm for a barbecue lunch and rest. After lunch, we jump back into the boats and tackle a couple more sections of rapids, enjoy the fantastic scenery, and float our way closer to Nha Trang. At the end of the rafting, we climb out of the river and into our vehicle for a short 40-minute ride to the city center. The total riding distance is customizable with about 60 km being the norm. The rafting section is about 10 kilometers. Then transfer to Nha Trang, check in and relax at the hotel.
