About this experience

This motorbike tour is a top 3 best mountain pass in all of Vietnam. We travel through 3 micro-climates, weaving forests, jungles, waterfalls, and breath taking views. All while heading towards the #1 producer of vegetables, fruit, and flowers in the country. The city is dubbed "Le petit Paris" because of the French colonial buildings and romantic city streets. Before we travel the mountain pass we will see how villagers traditionally hand-make Hats, Mats, and their age old crafts. Climbing the Omega pass to a height of 1700 meters will make for exceptional photographs. We will eat the local food, discover the pagodas of Da Lat and its magical fresh air and forestry.
