Nha Trang - Da Lat

The one day trip takes in the traditional basket weaving, Long Son Pogoda & the giant sleeping Buddha before we slowly climb through the mountains up to 1500 metres.   As we climb, there are numerous photo opportunities of spectacular countryside and waterfalls.   The area is renowned for its agriculture - silk, dairy, rice, fruits, vegetables, flowers and coffee. You will see lots of hot-houses and lots of coffee plantations.   Popular attractions around Dalat include Truc Lam Pagoda, the colonial railway station, Elephant  Waterfalls and the night market.   An alternative trip which is at least a day longer is via Lak Lake (See Nha Trang - Lak Lake tour). The scenery between Lak Lake and Dalat is stunning as we ride past rice fields and look at distant mountains.   Additional sights of the floating village, Elephant Rock, (yes, it does look like elephant hide) and the ruins of a French colonial era catholic church make this a popular alternative trip.
