Review of: Bike from Dalat to Nha Trang
A fantastic day!! This is an amazing experience that first took us by car up the mountains over Dalat with stunning views. Then we hopped on comfortable bikes with our very friendly guide Vinh. It was the just the two of us and the guide, really ideal! One of us liked the uphill (at the start) and the flat (in the end) effort very much, and loved the intensity of the 3km slope taking us more and more into a cold and windy fog, only to then be richly awarded by the gorgeous landscape opening up when the fog dissipated on the way down. The other one in our couple is a fast descent rider, loving the thrill of the very, very long descent, but finding the hot flat bit in the end once you reach the coast more challenging under the sun. Overall, you should probably be in good shape and be ready both for cold and rainy, hot and sunny weather, but most of the day is definitely spent going downhill! During the whole time on the mountain winding road, I only counted 10 buses and about 5 trucks, and they and the few cars passing by were surprisingly respectful and slow, so no fear to be had about traffic. I felt safe and could really enjoy the experience the whole time. This is a superb way to break free from long distance bus and train rides in Vietnam, do some exercise, have some fun and take in the landscape!
