The way is very beautiful, the pine forest and mountains and lake! The landscape is fantastic! Iike that the cable car was not over crowded, so the round trip was really comfortable and valuable.

We felt bad that there were only four of us, but the new, comfortable car and the efficient, friendly guidance made for a very pleasant trip. Thank you, guide.

Had a great experience at Suoi May Onsen & Spa. It offers excellent value for the price, and I was pleasantly surprised by how spacious and comfortable the onsen and sauna facilities were. The highlight of the visit was definitely the head spa session — it was incredibly relaxing and enjoyable. Kudos to the therapist for the amazing treatment. The hand care and foot care services were decent, though they were not as memorable as the head spa. The package also included a complimentary meal and a boiled egg, which was a nice touch. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience, and I would definitely come back if I visit Da Lat again. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Mountain was the best tour guide! He patiently stood in the rain wearing his raincoat while waiting for us and never once rushed anyone. He explained everything about Da Lat in great detail, especially the famous artichoke tea and its health benefits. I was so convinced that I bought some artichoke tea to bring home for my family. He also showed us what fresh oolong tea leaves look like and explained the tea-making process in a way that was easy to understand. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to answer our questions. He was very, very helpful throughout the trip. He even shared a whole list of recommended places to visit and eat, so you don’t even need to spend time planning your itinerary! 😂 Highly recommend having Mountain as your guide if you’re visiting Da Lat.

First and foremost, I believe this tour offers excellent value for money. Personally, the waterfall and coffee farm were very impressive and satisfying. The other locations, I feel, were made appealing largely due to our guide's personal expertise. Our guide was bright, cheerful, and very considerate. In particular, they possessed extensive professional knowledge, explaining each location in detail as if they worked in that specific industry. Their passion and deep expertise truly surprised me. Therefore, I would like to express my gratitude to our guide once again, and I highly recommend this tour! 👍
