DAY 8: DA LAT CITY HIGHLIGHTS: (Breakfast, Lunch)

Dalat is certainly one of Vietnam's highlights, especially for those who adore excitement. Dalat is unlike any other place in Vietnam. The weather is spring-like cool rather than tropical heat, the city is full of exquisite French-colonial mansions rather than drab Soviet architecture, and the nearby farms are overgrown with strawberries and flowers rather than rice paddy fields.

In addition to coffee, a culture has developed around coffee shops in Vietnam, with Dalat acting as the epicenter. It is more than simply a coffee shop; it is also a destination for eco-conscious people. These little coffee shops are typically individually decorated or have a distinct theme, and some are situated in a unique environment. Enjoy the scenery of a lake or city. Coffee shops in less popular areas are custom-designed or have a unique theme, such as Harry Potter, fairy tales, or a rainforest motif.

Overnight in Da Lat.

DAY 9: DA LAT - LAK LAKE: (Breakfast, Lunch) 

After breakfast, we head to Lak Lake - Buon Me Thuot. Lak Lake, in Dak Lak, Vietnam, is a tranquil oasis that reflects the blue sky amid undulating hills. Immerse yourself in the vibrant traditions of the Mnong people, ride elephants for breathtaking views, and enjoy local dishes.

Lak Lake is important not just as a tourist attraction, but also as a primary source of revenue for the indigenous Mnong people. Surrounded by beautiful hills and rich paddy fields, the lake is a thriving hub of aquatic life that has provided for the region's population for millennia.

Stay overnight at Lak Lake.

DAY 10: LAK LAKE - BUON ME THUOT: (Breakfast, Lunch)

Breakfast at the hotel. Continue with Buon Me Thuot. The Ethnographic Museum in Buon Ma Thuot is an excellent starting point for exploring Vietnam's Central Highlands and its many cultures. The museum has excellent displays and descriptions of some of the traditional activities and festivities that occur in ethnic minority groups.

A Gongs dance performance can also be held in these regions. The gong is a religious instrument believed to be related to the Gods; the older the gong, the stronger the connection. The gong is highly valued across the central highlands, and the ceremonies surrounding it have been classified by UNESCO as a Masterpiece of Oral or Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

Stay overnight in Buon Me Thuot.

DAY 11: BUON ME THUOT - PLEIKU: (Breakfast, Lunch)

Join Mytour to explore Pleiku tourism hotspots and enjoy the Central Highlands woodlands' raw, untamed beauty like never before.

Pleiku, located in Vietnam's central highlands, was once recognized as a crucial military stronghold during the Vietnam War, when some of the most significant fighting and shootings happened. Pleiku is now a calm city that serves as a gateway to local minority towns and tourism spots in the surrounding area. Pleiku is nothing short of a fantasy country, and if you're tired of crowded tourist destinations you must go.

Stay overnight in Pleiku City.

DAY 12: PLEIKU - KON TUM: (Breakfast, Lunch)

After breakfast. Head to Kontum.

Kon Tum is great for nature lovers looking to enjoy the stunning natural beauty of lakes, mountains, coffee plantations, and tropical rainforests.

Visit The Wooden Church, built in 1913, is a historic structure that combines European architecture with traditional Central Highland homes. One of Kon Tum's most remarkable locations, the church exhibits the enormous importance of culture in terms of Tay Nguyen ethnic customs and traditions. As a result, the Wooden Church has played a vital role in promoting Kontum Vietnam's traditional heritages.

Stay overnight in Kon Tum.

DAY 13: KON TUM - MANG DEN: (Breakfast, Lunch)

After breakfast, head to Mang Den.

The settlement of Mang Den is situated on a plateau in Vietnam's Central Highlands. Mang Den, at an elevation of 1,200 meters, is a beautiful spot accessible by a winding mountain road and surrounded by pine trees.

Mang Den is known for its mountainous topography, numerous waterfalls, and cool, crisp, bright weather. However, unlike the ever-popular Da Lat, Mang Den is like Cinderella before the ball, unknown. This well-kept secret, however, is gradually emerging, much like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis.

Stay overnight in Mang Den.

DAY 14: MANG DEN - HOI AN: (Breakfast, Lunch)

After breakfast, head to Hoi An.

Hoi An, on Vietnam's central coast, stands out among Southeast Asian cities and towns. This city is a mash-up of styles reflecting the region's influences from several civilizations, including Japanese, Chinese, French, and Portuguese. Visiting this UNESCO World Heritage Site allows you to contemplate and explore up to 800 historic buildings. Between the 16th and 19th centuries, Hoi An was a busy trading port, with merchant ships from all over the world passing through.

Stay overnight in Hoi An.

DAY 15: HOI AN CITY HIGHLIGHTS: (Breakfast, Lunch) 

Breakfast in the hotel.

Traditional boats, due to their estuary location, are another defining feature of Hoi An. The river, which has welcomed decades of trade, continues to provide money for many communities. A boat tour is a pleasant and soothing way to discover the city's waterways. The most popular activity is a sunset excursion on one of the riverside sampans. Early birds might go on a morning tour of the fish market in a traditional wooden boat. Assist returning fishermen in unloading their catch, which is ready to sell. For a one-of-a-kind experience, board one of Vietnam's remarkable circular bamboo boats.

Stay overnight in Hoi An.

DAY 16: HOI AN - DA NANG: (Breakfast, Lunch) 

Breakfast in the hotel.

Da Nang possesses a significant geographical advantage. This position not only underlines its significance as a cultural and tourism hub but also acts as a starting point for travelers exploring the region.

The Marble Mountains were declared a national cultural and historical asset in 1980 and a special national relic in 2019, representing Da Nang's tourist sector. In the second lunar month, they organize the annual Quan The Am Festival, which draws thousands of visitors and celebrates traditional Vietnamese culture and spirituality.

Stay overnight in Da Nang.

DAY 17: GOLDEN HAND BRIDGE - BANA HILL: (Breakfast, Lunch) 

Breakfast in the hotel.

Visit Ba Na Hill. Ba Na Hills, initially established as a French vacation destination in 1919, now welcomes visitors from all over the world. One of the highlights is the journey up the slope in a spacious cable car, which provides views of the sea in the distance as well as tumbling waterfalls and forests below. The Ba Na Hills' moderate and pleasant environment makes it a perfect destination to retire during the summer, but it's equally beautiful all year.

Ba Na Hills is home to the iconic Golden Hands Bridge, which became viral on social media in 2018. This pedestrian bridge is actually two enormous hands carrying a golden thread that hangs over the valley below. The views from the bridge, which faces the East Sea at daybreak, are stunning on clear days, but murky and melancholy on cloudy ones.

Stay overnight in Da Nang.

DAY 18: DA NANG - HUE IMPERIAL CITY: (Breakfast, Lunch) 

Breakfast in the hotel.

This fascinating town, steeped in history, is locked in time, impossible to be defined by a single number. This fascinating city, neither modern nor historical, tells the story of hundreds of years preserved in brick and stone. Hue has served as Vietnam's cultural, political, and geographic center. It has experienced both enormous prominence and tremendous upheaval, and its walls today hold a majestic yet melancholy romance. Although the stormy past is clearly etched on the ruined structures, a closer look will uncover the undiscovered stories buried in the moss-covered stones and mildew-infested walls.

Stay overnight in Hue.

DAY 19: HUE CITY HIGHLIGHTS: (Breakfast, Lunch) 

Breakfast in the hotel.

The Hue tombs, with their moss-covered castles concealed in the hills and fading stone warriors bravely guarding the dead, evoke a bygone, almost mythical world. The Nguyen Dynasty monarchs designed their own tombs to reflect their various temperaments, beliefs, and goals.
Dig deeper, and you'll discover that the tombs reflect more than just the lives and souls of the Nguyen Kings. They also describe one of Vietnam's most fascinating historical periods, which encompassed national unification, military conquest, and the cultural legacy of French colonialism.

Stay overnight in Hue.

DAY 20: HUE  - HOI AN COOKING CLASS AT TRA QUE VEGETABLES VILLAGE: (Breakfast, Lunch)
