This is a packed out day tour, three waterfalls, a Temple, coffee farm, flower farm, silk factory and and cricket farm. Good guide, ours was called Su. Fabulous driver and a great restaurant stop. Very good value for money. Only downside was a cramped mini bus with little leg or shoulder room…

Vinh was the most awesome guide. Funny and great English. Did a wonderful job of handling a very difficult, grumpy customer. We had so much fun visiting the waterfalls and enjoying the Alpine Coaster ride. Definitely recommend.

    It was okay

    Michelle_S, Mar 2026
    Was a nice tour. No sales pitches like some do that take you to local businesses. First two waterfalls were nice.

    Great guide with plenty of local knowledge and history

    Tomas_L, Mar 2026
    Very easy going and plenty of activities. The tour covered a lot of ground with waterfalls, coffee plantation and other interesting parts of Da Lat

    Not as fun as anticipated

    Donna_J, Feb 2026
    Guide didn’t communicate well. We were never sure where to go and how long we had at each site. Had to ask for any info. Guide spent time looking for people when time to leave as no instructions given at start. So a lot of waiting around.

    Great guide, great sights, coaster was fun!

    I hate organized tours.

    David_C, Jan 2026
    I was very hesitant at first. Basically booked for convenience of having a driver get me to the falls. However between a great group and an incredulous guide Quy (pray I spell it correctly) it was a brilliant day. The guide delivered a copious amount of information in a casual manner that made the day breeze by. A million thanks.

    Perfect experience

    Beautiful day with Vinh, he is the perfect guide to visit Da lat. places are varied and really nice to see

    Three waterfalls, a coaster and a heap of stops

    Was good for the price

    Adam_J, Mar 2025
    Good for allowing amount of time to explore and look around things. Lots of the afternoon activities were expensive tourist traps trying to get you to buy things. Coffee at the plantation was triple the price for cups in the city. Also trip was constantly interupted by a know it all american who was constantly comparing everything to previous trips to asia and trying to tell everyone how its different in thailand. The tour guide really needed to tell him to shut up as his constant interuptions and need to tell his story ruined the experience and threw the guide off track when trying to tell everyone about the area

    A fantastic tour!

    Linh_U, Mar 2025
    This was an exciting adventure! We enjoyed three breathtaking waterfalls in Dalat. Visited a Tall Buddha Temple and enjoyed thrilling rides at the falls. We had delicious lunch. We also had a chance to visit a interesting silk factory, to taste stir fried crickets and delicious coffee at a local coffee farm.

    Recomendado!

    Cynthia_S, Mar 2025
    Totally recommended! Everything is very organized and we visited many places! Our guide Bao was very funny and kind!

    waterfalls & a beautiful coffee farm

    Anonymous, May 2024
    I joined the tour with my friends. To us the elephant waterfall was wonderful. The powerful red water was magnificent. And one more, Me Linh coffee farm tour was also good. We could see three kinds of coffee trees: cherry, robusta & arabica. We also saw weasels in the dome cage. We had moca coffees and enjoyed the beautiful scenery downwards. The tourguide was kind and funny.

    Beautiful

    May_a, Feb 2024
    It was a beautiful experience, the stunning scenery and the atmosphere was beautiful in February. We went to three waterfalls, each of them more beautiful than the other, then we went to the temple, there was nothing special in it, and it was supposed to go to the silk factory, but it was closed, it was replaced by the flower farm. We enjoyed the right, the guide was a hard, fun and light shadow, he gave the trip beauty.

    Memorable nice tour with Su as a guide

    Sigrid_S, Feb 2024
    Su was a wonderful and dedicated guide. He could answer almost every question we had and also told us a lot of extras spontaneously . The tour contained a wide range of different things, the main attraction of course, the waterfalls. A full very nice day tour. I would strongly recommend both the tour, but especially Su as a guide!

    BEST TOUR, BEST GUIDE

    Guide is very knowledgeable, pleasant and courteous. I love this tour and would recommend the Viet Challenges Tour company to friends and family.

    Waterfalls and other wonders

    Belinda_H, Apr 2023
    All the waterfalls were lovely but the best was the last: Pongour Falls. Andy, our guide, was excellent, giving us lots of interesting information along the way but also allowing us some wandering time by ourselves at each waterfall. Some participants chose to take the roller coaster but we preferred to walk to the first waterfall. Andy walked with us and we enjoyed his company. We enjoyed the coffee tasting, eating the crunchy crickets and having a drink of rice wine. The silk processing plant was extremely interesting, but I didn't much like my taste of the pupa(?) within the cocoon. Andy spoke excellent English and was a perfect guide.

    Much more than waterfalls

    Anthony_H, Feb 2023
    The tour guide who my group and I called “Boss Man” was so very fun and insightful. He was known by everyone around town and gave us the best inside view to each and every destination. The tour is labeled “Waterfall Tour”, yet it was MUCH more than just the astonishing waterfalls. We definitely got a bang for our buck on this trip. Thank you Boss Man!

    Hi, Thanks you so much about your review. Our guides are happy to hear that. They’re trying day by day to get better. See you soon! Kind regards!

    Fantastic tour, highly skilled and friendly guide

    Dmitry_I, Nov 2022
    This was probably the best of our excursions in Vietnam so far. Ace (the tour guide) is professional, very friendly and generally a very nice person. The experience starts with a flower growing plantation, followed by a Weasel Coffee farm (yes you get to see a weasel and drink a cup of coffee that actually went through it :)), Cricket farm (you can eat those too!) and then it’s followed by three waterfalls. The first one (Elephant) is located near a Buddhist temple, which is spectacular. The second is the largest in South Vietnam and is really a cascade of waterfalls. And the third one you reach via a very long roller coaster, which adds to the fun! This was an amazing day in Dalat. Again, Ace made it unforgettable. They even arranged a taxi to the airport for us! Thank you guys!

    Response from Host, Nov 2022

    Dear our friend ! Our guides are very happy reading your enchanting review of your tour in Dalat with us. We hope that you guys will have more chances to join us on other tours in the near future. Best wishes to you all. VCT

    Don’t buy

    John_B, Mar 2022
    The tour company canceled my trip after asking if I could do the whole 9 hour trip on the back of a scooter

    Perfect day

    alois_e, Apr 2026
    Our tour guide Mr. Sou accompanied us excellently through the day. In the morning we visited the waterfalls, after lunch we continued to the silk and coffee plantation. Everything was well organized and explained very understandably. It was an all-round perfect day – the group also harmonised wonderfully.

    Good mix of landscape and local produce

    Good mix of landscape and local produce. The guide was very well informed and could share important information. And when does one have the opportunity to eat fresh insects with rice wife?

    Good luck to take us to the three waterfalls. Would have liked to stay a little longer on the first waterfall, Datanla.

    Tour consigliatissimo

    Kerol_D, Feb 2025
    Una bellissima giornata nei pressi di Da Lat, I posti visitati sono davvero mozzafiato. Vorrei distaccare la gentilezza e simpatia della guida.

    Belle journée

    Bruno_P, Mar 2024

    BELLE JOURNÉE

    Emmanuel_F, Apr 2022
    Très belles journée en compagnie de notre guide Tin Tin. Visites intéressantes et instructives dans la plantation de café, de fleurs, la fabrique des fils de soie, le temple... Les cascades sont très belles surtout Pongour. Un seul petit hic, des détritus (bouteilles plastiques, canettes, sacs plastiques....) jonchés ici et là, gâchent la beauté des lieux. C’est, malheureusement, le principal problème du Vietnam. Il y a beaucoup de retard pour tout ce qui touche au respect de l’environnement... C’est bien dommage. Malgré cela, les spots valent le détour et n’hésitez pas de demander Tin Tin qui aime sa région. C’est un sentiment palpable à travers ses commentaires agrémentés de légendes toujours avec une touche d’humour. Nous avons passé une très belle journée.
