Enchanting Vietnam: From Dalat To Hue

Start the day off with a scenic drive to Buon Me Thuot (around 4 hours) and stop along the way to enjoy a delicious local lunch. Continue to the Krong Ana River and be mesmerized by the beauty of the Dray Sap and Dray Nur waterfalls. Next, trek through the riverside and get an even better view of the majestic falls.

Head deep into the lush green countryside and discover the best coffee in the world at the Trung Nguyen coffee village. Trung Nguyen is famous for coffees that are deep-roasted and rich in flavour. Here, you-ll sip an unforgettable cup and take in the beautiful highland scenery that surrounds you. Next, you-ll visit the rustic town of Kon Tum (around 5 hours’ drive). Experience Kon Tum on your own for the remainder of the day. Consider hiring a guide and visiting the villages of indigenous hill tribes located on the outskirts of town.

Begin the day with a stop at the sacred town of Hoi An, around 4.5 hours away, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here you-ll enjoy free time for the rest of the day. Take this opportunity to learn about Vietnamese culture at the Hoi An Museum of History and Culture. We also recommend enrolling in a private cooking class offered by many restaurants to learn the art of Vietnamese cuisine.

In the morning, tour the local market and see fresh produce bursting with colour. Next, sail on the Thu Bon River and visit the island of Cam Nam. Continue by boat to the estuary and see where the river meets the ocean. After taking in the breathtaking views, we head back to Hoi An and embark on a walking or biking tour of the ancient town. Don-t miss the beautiful gardens and intricate architecture of the Fukien Assembly Hall. End the exciting day with a stop at the Japanese Covered Bridge, a famous landmark built in the early 1600-s by a small Japanese community.

Pack your bags and take a scenic 3-hour drive to the Imperial City of Hue first thing in the morning. You-ll spend the day gazing at the stunning landscapes of Vietnam as we pass the beautiful Son Tra Mountain and the Marble Mountains. Continue to the fishing village of Lang Co and stop to eat a hearty lunch. After a delicious meal, we hit the road again until we arrive in Hue.

Spend the day sailing in a dragon boat and cruise to Thien Mu Pagoda, one of the oldest religious sites in the country. Next, uncover the Imperial Citadel and walk through the walled fortress and palace. Continue your exploration and tour the decorative tombs of emperors and learn the ancient philosophies of Vietnamese kings.

Make the most of your last free day in Hue. We recommend taking refuge in the relaxing hot springs located in My An and Thanh Tan. Feel rejuvenated by the soothing waters and leave refreshed. You could also take a beach day and travel a few miles outside Hue to Thuan An beach for crystal blue water and white sandy beaches. In the afternoon we depart to Phu Bai International Airport where say farewell.
