Great value for money but as is a lot of things around Vietnam the carriage isn’t suitable for tall people over 6ft but that’s only a small thing. The ride was pleasant enough and the food was great!
Great train journey. Loads of leg room and I am 1.81m tall. Very comfortable. The trains on Vietnam are rarely on time, so you need to accept this.
The air- con worked fine. The staff were helpful and nice. There was often food and drinks available from the staff.
You can’t sit up in the second class beds and there’s very limited space for luggage. It’s so unclear when the train is stopping what stop you’re at - it feels as if you oversleep you’ll miss your stop. People in the cabins also loud and inconsiderate.
