What to do

• Canyoning

Canyoning basically means going through a canyon. The best thing about Dalat's canyons is that it runs through waterfalls. So imagine yourself rappelling down a waterfall or hanging from a rope as water is gushing down on you. Simply exhilarating! The guides speak decent English. Everything is thought from the basics so you do not have to worry if you do not have any prior experience. The equipments used looks very safe and reliable. Part of the activities include going down a waterslide, jumping off a 10m cliff into a river and also hanging from a rope while the water falls right onto you. Check out for "The Washing Machine". Although the water was freezing cold, we definitely had a lot of fun. We would strongly recommend agency, Phat Tire. The website is right below.

• Local Market

If you wish to experience the true Dalat vibe, do take a walk into the local market. You can get pretty good bargains on jackets and scarfs. They also have an array of street food. On weekends, they normally block off roads so that the local kids can play. It is a great way to immerse yourself in the Dalat culture and break free from the norm of being in a touristy area. Something we always aim to achieve. There are coffeehouses all around town so that would be a great way to spend the nights.
