A neat weekend getaway: half the lively pace of Saigon, half the cool air of the Dalat highlands. A popular choice for Muslim travellers from Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.
Day 1 — Saigon
You stroll the "Malaysia street" on Nguyen An Ninh beside Ben Thanh Market — selling hijab outfits and souvenirs, surrounded by Halal eateries. In the afternoon, the group stops at the Jamiul Islamiah Mosque in District 1 for prayers.
Day 2 — Up to Dalat
A flight of under fifty minutes lifts you from the lowland heat up to the misty city at 1,500 metres. Pine hills, flower gardens and old villas give Dalat the air of a corner of Europe. As certified Halal restaurants are scarce here, Travelus prepares meals in advance from greenhouse-grown vegetables and fresh seafood, so you can dine with peace of mind.
Day 3 — Slowing down
In the morning, visit Datanla Waterfall and sip a cup of hot cocoa overlooking the valley, before the group flies back to Saigon to depart. Three days is just enough to step away from the everyday and return feeling refreshed.
