My beautiful mother was born in Da Lat. Mountains and waterfalls were a part of her childhood. She was so beautiful!

[@LaurenJason]

That’s amazing! It’s such a beautiful city 😍

[@3sgtepwnzr]

Not too many families in the Cau Dat area. My two uncles and family are the few ramining from the 3 generations there, still growing tea. Im so happy to see this video and witness how much it has changed and how beautful Da Lat has blossomed.

[@brianblamberg4413]

I spent February 2024 in Vietnam. I was able to spend 5 days in DL. I saw the sunrise from the same spot you two did. Amazing city. I will return for Tet 2025 😊

[@LaurenJason]

That’s amazing! It’s such a beautiful place isn’t it? 😍

[@nhungnguyenbonmua]

in the US I visited the same city like Da Lat that name Gatlinburg, on the mountain Great Smoky mountains, actually I can say Da Lat has much more thing to explore. We need to reserve the beauty of this city for every body around the world can visit.

[@MargaretWitlock]

The filming you two do for your videos is always spot on!

[@LaurenJason]

We really appreciate that 🥰🥰

[@LocoLisa]

First time watcher. Thanks for giving me itinerary ideas. Be there in 6 weeks.

[@LaurenJason]

That’s awesome! We hope you have an amazing time 🙏

[@KayTongguo]

Don’t think I’ve heard of this city but you two do well in showing it off. 👍

[@LaurenJason]

Thank you! We hope more people will get the chance to visit 🥰

[@Maya-lw6nm]

Hi this is Jessie from India. We are planning Dalat for 3N and 4D. Can you suggest what all we can do there.

[@anuragkumar7593]

How can I visit local sightseeing at Dalat ?

[@LaurenJason]

@@anuragkumar7593 you can book a guided tour! Here’s the link where you can book it: www.getyourguide.com/dalat-l976/natural-countryside-tour-t449145/?partner_id=WTQXQZS&

[@tanjiayue3576]

Hi, I was wondering if it's safe to ride a scooter in Dalat?

[@LaurenJason]

@@tanjiayue3576 we found it quite safe especially compared to the bigger cities like Ho Chi Minh or Hanoi! During the busy hours of the day it can get a little hectic but not bad at all!

[@robertleitelt3479]

Pretty sure your dish at the Pho shop was Hu Tieu Bo Kho, which is beef stew with noodles. The banh mi bo kho is served with a baguette in place of the noodles. One of my favorites. And that basket of herbs and leafy greens is meant to be ripped up and shoved into the bo kho (or any other soup dish) for added flavor and goodness. I hope you didn't miss that. I'm in Da Lat for the first time as I ride a motorcycle from Ho Chi Minh City to the Ha Giang Loop way up near the Chinese border. I'm watching your video for ideas. Thanks!

[@LaurenJason]

Thanks for the insight! Haha we were very lost with what we were eating but we knew it was delicious. We hope you’re enjoying your journey!

[@seefsepahi4725]

Hi guys! Great vid, thanks for the insight on Dalat. In relation to the sunrise, did you guys have to buy tickets to get into Cau Dat Tea Hill? I have been searching online but there’s not too much info on this. We’re aiming to go check it out tomorrow morning. Thanks !

[@LaurenJason]

No we didn’t have to! The tea hills are everywhere so we could see them right from the road! In terms of the shots when we were walking through them, it was kind of a random tea hill that we saw a couple other people walking around. Best thing is to get there as early as possible to take a look at where the best viewpoint would be!

[@seefsepahi4725]

@@LaurenJason thank you so much for the help! This is helpful 😁

[@jjjbossjjj]

Love this! What time of year did you visit? Looks quite chilly!

[@LaurenJason]

This was the very beginning of April! It was cold in the morning with the motorbike but once the sun fully came out, it was perfect!

[@kurumigaltravel]

amazing!!!

[@LaurenJason]

Thank you!

[@Pronitaabir]

hello,this is video seems very informative for any travelers. Did you cover visiting all of these places in 1 day by bike? thanks to letting us know, good wishes!

[@LaurenJason]

Thanks for watching! The first half of the video (everything before Tuyen Lam Lake) is done in 1 day and everything else is day 2!

[@miaow2918]

Can you tell us the name of the sunrise view point with clouds please ?

[@LetsTravelTogether-th9nj]

Beautiful 🙏❤️🇻🇳

[@LaurenJason]

Thank you!

[@waddupanna]

Hi! Thank you for the helpful video!! I was wondering if it's easy to arrange for transport within and outside of dalat e.g. when you go out to the villages/ cloud hunting. I saw you said you rented a scooter - is that something that is easy to ride for someone who's never rode a scooter before? Do people get rent cars or do private hire (w/ driver) cars? I imagine having your own ride would make it a lot easier to move around outside the city!

[@LaurenJason]

For us, riding a scooter here is definitely one of the easier places to ride in Vietnam especially if you leave a bit earlier to avoid the traffic! But with that said, if you'd rather not have the hassle of riding yourself, you can book a private car/tour that goes to roughly the same spots we did (www.getyourguide.com/dalat-l976/explore-the-best-of-dalat-s-countryside-tour-private-car-t531092/?partner_id=WTQXQZS&)

[@JuliaEkstomschannel]

Beautiful video! I'm going there in February😍 would you say it's possible to get to these sights without driving your own scooter?

[@LaurenJason]

Thank you Julia! If you didn’t want to ride your own scooter or hire a private driver you can book a tour! Here’s a link to one we found that fits a lot of beautiful places: www.getyourguide.com/dalat-l976/natural-countryside-tour-t449145/? Enjoy your trip to Dalat! 🥰

[@kofimak5323]

Nice video and looks like you both had an amazing time in Dalat! Just wondering if you need a licence to hire the motorbike from your hotel ??

[@LaurenJason]

We had an amazing time and no they never asked us for a license! But often they ask to hold a piece of ID while the bike is out.

[@Branzo29]

Bad Ass Awesome;) Much Obliged/ Mahalo you 2!!

[@LaurenJason]

Thank you! 🥰

[@TheCaminoGuide]

The best thing about Dalat was the coffee. I don't know how they do it. I wish I could duplicate it at home.

[@LaurenJason]

The coffee over there has such an incredible flavor profile! 😮‍💨

[@travelmurmur]

Vietnam has so much natural beauty 😍 really want to visit! Also, the FOOD!

[@LaurenJason]

The food was AMAZING! We miss Vietnamese cuisine every day! 🥰

[@CC-kl4nh]

Where did you all stay for hotels? Is there one that is more centrally located?

[@LaurenJason]

This is the hotel we booked! www.booking.com/hotel/vn/sweet-lavender-lam-dong.en.html?aid=2166762&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2

[@dinaadlinaamu]

Do you have recommendation for flower garden and Pagoda that must visit in Dalat?

[@LaurenJason]

The flower gardens are a great choice if you visit during the late spring/summer season so the flowers are in full bloom! As for pagoda’s, the most popular one to visit would be the Linh Phuoc Pagoda which a bit out of town so if you wanted one right in town we would suggest the Linh Son Pagoda!

[@misterabroad123]

Great ariel footage. Take a photo of the menu and upload the image to google translate. Voila!

[@LaurenJason]

Haha I remember us trying it and Google translate gave us a really weird translation! Maybe it’s better now but it was not doing the best job unfortunately 😂

[@TinNguyenvids]

Hey, great video! Was wondering if you had any issue bring your drone to vn. Or any requirements? And did you bring multiple batteries? I have dji fly more with 3 batteries, going to vn next week and wanna know before I pack. Thanks

[@LaurenJason]

We had no issues bringing it in! Their requirements are quite loose but there will be signs if you cannot fly. We always bring 3 batteries with us!

[@TinNguyenvids]

@@LaurenJason thank you. I appreciate the guide. Keep up the work!!!

[@LaurenJason]

@@TinNguyenvids no problem! Enjoy Vietnam 😍

[@andreykurlaeff663]

Is it too much rain in Dalat in October? Or this month is good for visiting Dalat?

[@LaurenJason]

October is the tail end of rainy season so the rain shouldn’t be too bad! Oct technically should get less rain than now.

[@AlexisTanSingco]

for foreigners do you need a license to drive a motorbike?

[@LaurenJason]

Technically you need an international driving permit which you can get with your license but when we rented them, they never asked. However, the police have and can check to make sure you have both of these!

[@briandyson7800]

You do need an international licence as well as your home country motorcycle license. The Police will fine you or seize your bike if you argue with them. Unqualified riders are a huge danger to everyone and of course without a licence your insurance is invalid.

[@LincolnClay98]

Would dalat be okay for solo travel? Not sure whether to fly dalat or nha Trang tomorrow

[@LaurenJason]

Definitely okay for solo travel! If you’re looking for night life and beach head for Nha Trang, but if that’s not your priority then come to Dalat. We so glad we chose Dalat 🥰

[@spirittravels.]

I thought the people were friendly and the sights out of the City were pleasant, but other than that I wasn't particularly impressed with Dalat. The drone shots make it look a lot better than it actually is. There are much better places in Vietnam to visit with far more interesting surroundings.

[@mattmaniac3740]

its funny you only show drone footage. should've shown what people can see through their eyes.

[@Maxwin999]

Dalat center is more beautiful, like Hongkong but made in Dalat. 😂😂😂😂

Haha great description!

[@josephcohen9480]

Ugh I hate those ugly wind turbines. And they are not Green by the way, horrible for the environment. Let's hope Vietnam doesn't start building a bunch of those things

[@LaurenJason]

Oh really?? Do you know why they’re not good for the environment?

[@baoddang8625]

they have their flags everywhere you go as if 'they' want to remind the viewers that the country is under their rule, the vcp, the vietnamese communist party. I am so allergic to that in your video..the hammer and sickle flag and the yellow star on the red blood flag..

[@vypham8409]

That's your thinking. I don't get annoyed or problem with it. The red flag shows loyalty and love for one's homeland, as well as other countries.

[@zantigar]

I agree with vypham! I love Vietnam's red flag - it's simple, powerful, and beautiful! @@vypham8409

[@Sjsieisjje]

You should stay in the West and continue to worship French Colonial rule and American propaganda. It's sad you have been whitewashed and don't appreciate Vietnam's independence.
