Overview

Take a trip to Dalat on your Vietnam Vacation

Dalat is located in the South Central Highlands of Vietnam and is the capital of Lam Dong province.

Located 1,500 m (4,900 ft) above sea level on the Langbiang Plateau, Dalat’s climate is quite temperate, earning the nickname ‘City of Eternal Spring’, for the constant mist covering the valleys. With cooler temperatures, Dalat offers Vietnam various agricultural products such as cauliflower and cabbage and is renowned for its orchids and roses.

Dalat is known as an area for scientific research in the fields of biotechnology and nuclear physics. In the 1890s, during the French occupation, Alexandre Yersin, a French bacteriologist (and protégé of the renowned French chemist, Louis Pasteur) was one of a few explorers in the area of Dalat, looking to build a resort area in the highlands.
In contrast to Vietnam’s heat and humidity, Dalat would serve as a pleasant escape, especially on a Vietnam vacation.

Vietnam doesn’t need to be paired with another country to fill a trip. From the culture to the coast, you can easily spend two full weeks here and barely scratch the surface

Vietnam has a way of welcoming you in. I’ve been invited into houses and shared meals with strangers, and those moments have shaped my love for the place

Vietnam isn’t just conical hats and war stories. It’s a land of 54 ethnic groups, layered history, and vibrant culture that surprises even seasoned travelers.

History

With its first hotel built in 1907, Dalat soon became a tourist destination, filled with villas, boulevards, health spas, golf courses, parks, schools, and homes. Dominated by French colonial architecture, Dalat looks like a colourful cross between Vietnam and the French Alps.

Built in 1938, and earning recognition as a national historical monument in 2001, Dalat Railway Station features an Art Deco design and includes three pointed roofs, a characteristic of communal houses in Vietnam’s Central Highlands, as well as representing the three peaks of Dalat’s iconic mountain, Lang Biang.

Kimberly Brown from Goway Travel made my trip to Australia & New Zealand a very memorable and remarkable experience. Every step and detail was fantastic and I will never forget the trip of a lifetime and it was because of the experience of Kimberly. If you are thinking about taking a trip to New Zealand and Australia, I highly recommend contacting Kimberly from Goway travel. David Klein

We had a blast and felt covered by GoAway throughout. This was our first time using a travel agent and Melissa and her team made it easy. I also appreciated the quick communication while on our trip. I only wish that we got our official itinerary and tickets sooner as we did not receive them until a week prior. But it is busy season so I understand. Courtney McCarthy

Our trip to Japan was great. All our Goway arrangements preformed like clockwork and the guides for the tours were wonderful. Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji was in total fog but at least the lunch was very good and so was the drum solo, also our tour guide kept our spirits up ( she was the best). Taryn picked hotels that were very convenient to the meeting point of our tours which was much appreciated and organized all aspects of our trip perfectly. So from our airport pickup to our last day in Tokyo everything ran very smoothly so we have used Goway before and will certainly use it again and reccommend Goway to others.JW

We have used Goway Travel for previous trips and have been very happy with their excellent service. Our last trip to New Zealand and Australia was no exception. Our agent, Lori Mazzono, got tuned into the sort of trip we were hoping to have immediately. The various booking she provided were, without exception, exceptional and exactly what we envisioned, We really don't think we would have changed anything. tBruce Belshaw

Mary was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was incredibly responsive and quick to assist with every update and change my clients made throughout the planning process. Her expertise was invaluable, from recommending the perfect resorts to advising on the best way to travel between the islands. My clients loved every moment of their trip, especially their resort stays and overwater bungalow experiences. As this was their honeymoon, creating a seamless and memorable journey was so important, and Mary exceeded expectations. They rated their experience a 5 out of 5 and could not have been happier. Thank you, Mary, for your outstanding support and attention to detail. I truly appreciated your partnership and would not hesitate to work with you again for future South Pacific Island bookings. I am from the TravelStore in Fresno.Jenn W

We had an exceptional experience with Goway Travel on our recent trip to Africa. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed, which made the entire journey stress-free. The recommendations on where to go and what to do were absolutely fantastic! Each stop felt perfectly curated and exceeded our expectations. It was clear that Goway truly understands the destinations they offer and knows how to create a memorable, well-balanced itinerary. A special thank you to our travel consultant, Bijal, who was outstanding throughout the entire process. Bijal was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive while we prepared for the trip, ensuring that all our questions were answered and that every detail was taken care of. Their guidance made a big difference in building our confidence and excitement leading up to the trip. I would highly recommend Goway Travel to anyone looking for a seamless, expertly planned travel experience. We will definitely be using them again for our future adventures! Harjit C
