Tour Itinerary

Departure 8:30 AM or 1:00 PM

Pickup and Ta Nung road

Your guide collects you from your accommodation within 2 km of Da Lat city centre. After a short introduction and safety briefing, leave the city and travel west towards Ta Nung. The route changes from urban streets to pine-covered hills, vegetable farms and coffee plantations. There is time to stop at a safe viewpoint when road and weather conditions allow.

Stop 1

Coffee farm walk

Walk through a working coffee garden with a local host or guide. Learn how the Central Highlands climate supports coffee cultivation. See how farmers care for Arabica and Robusta plants across the seasons.

Stop 2

Processing area

Follow the journey from freshly picked coffee cherries to beans ready for roasting. Learn how ripe cherries are selected, and how poor-quality or unripe fruit affects the final cup. The host introduces natural, honey and washed processing, with drying beds, green beans and dried husks used for cascara tea.

Stop 3

Roasting and brewing

Learn how green beans are evaluated before roasting, and why roast profiles differ for Arabica and Robusta. Roasting time and temperature shape aroma, acidity, bitterness and body. A standard visit may include a roasting and brewing demonstration. The extended hands-on experience may let you roast beans and practise a basic brewing method.

Stop 4

Silk workshop

Travel through the coffee-growing area to a local silk workshop. Observe how silkworm cocoons are processed and how fine silk fibres are prepared for weaving. Your guide explains each production stage and the role of small agricultural workshops in the local economy.

Stop 5

Linh An Pagoda and return

Make a final cultural stop at Linh An Pagoda, a Buddhist complex in the countryside near Nam Ban. Walk the temple grounds and see the large Lady Buddha and Happy Buddha statues. After the visit, return to Da Lat through the mountain countryside.
