Florentina EUnser Fahrer war total unfreundlich!! Im Ticketcenter wurden wir auch ignoriert von den Mitarbeitern. Keiner hat uns gesagt in welchen Bus wir steigen müssen, sehr unorganisiert
Die Busse sind aber bequem

Hans PMit dem Zug von Lao Cai nach Hanoi zu fahren in pure Nostalgie. Uns hat die gemütliche Fahrt sehr gefallen. Und dass man bei der Einfahrt in Hanoi bei der Train Street noch Teil des Schauspiels im Zug drinnen ist, macht es nochmals spezieller.

Richard Absolute torture. Have been on many trains all over SE Asia going on 35 years. I hope all the trains between Sapa and Hanoi aren’t like this one. First 2/3 of the trip it made the most horrendous sounds I thought the train was breaking apart. The rest was a constant loud sound that prevented any kind of relaxation much less sleeping. Kids screaming at the top of their lungs. Someone was smoking near us that spread through the ventilation system into our cabin. No food car. The ac was ok and going through train street at the end was fun.

Harry HThe only downside is the train is really noisy, otherwise a great experience.

Lou NThe lounge was nice. But the cabin was extremely warm and it was difficult to breathe in the night. The day after the company requested feedback and when we shared our experience they simply said they wished they knew sooner. However when we confronted them with the fact that we had tried to let them know during the train ride, they ignored us. Not a great way to handle feedback :/

Lee TI was worried when I booked the train ride as I was concerned over cleanliness. Many a times, what are sold online differs from what we book and get.
BUT I am very happy with the booking and thr ride. 1st time experience for my hubby and I and our kids. The cabin is spacious (i thought it will be crammed), there is space underneath the lower deck for all our 3 luggage with room for a 4th one. The covers on the beds are clean and fresh.
There are bottled drinks, biscuits, snacks and bananas for all 4 of us.
Charging of mobile phone is easy as long as you have an adapter and plug type charger.
Air-conditioning is weak for those on the upper deck.
Toilet is clean!!!
Overall, I would rate this experience a 4.5 stars out of 5 stars.

Santosh MThe cabin was vintage styled and beds were comfortable. Only bad part was the wash basin in the bathroom was leaking. Otherwise the experience was good
