    I can't *_WAIT_* to see your vlogs from there!

    *_SO_* adorable that the guy shows you how to work the door, and you, in turn, show it to some random person!

    I drove Hai Van Pass many times from Phu Bai, where I was stationed for 22 months, to Da Nang. The first year it was a one way dirt road, then in 69' a two way and paved. I left in Dec. 69'. It wan't as pretty then, but I'm happy its nice today. I love your videos.

    Thanks for the vid. When we visited DaNang in April we contemplated taking the train to Hanoi. One gets to see/experience so much more of the country via the rails. But once we realized how long the trip would be and the cost vs. flying we decided to fly. Glad we flew but happy we were able to see the train experience on your channel

    My buddy and I took a sleeper train from Sa Pa to Hanoi back in 2019. It was a 12 hour train ride. We opted to take the train ride instead of a private taxi for the experience and aI also got car sick when we took a private taxi to Sa Pa from Hanoi. Our sleeper cabin was meant for four passengers, but it was just me and my buddy because we paid extra not to have two strangers stay with us. Let me say, it was worth paying the extra because we had more room to ourselves and more privacy and also we can be ourselves. We didn't do much on the train as we just slept throughout the ride.

    Train trip from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi is what attracted me to VN. I read the trip was only $100! It costs me $50 to do a five hour trip from Detroit to Chicago on Amtrak, so the VN trip was quite a deal. My sleeper was not as luxurious as yours. The window was a tad dirty on the outside, so video along the way was not brilliant in colors. Because of some visa issue that delayed my trip, I took the train to Da Nang instead of Ha Noi. Other than the noise of constant construction, Da Nang is the place!

    Went from DaNang north. Be careful booking, there are private trains, plus official Vietnam Railroad trains. There are different websites that look official but are not. The times are displayed slightly differently so the private train looks faster but wasn’t. The private trains were more expensive, but older and run down, they also covered the table with junk so it couldn’t be used. Think the water and one bathroom didn’t work. Would make sure to get on right website and book a Vietnam Railroad car, considerably cheaper, plus may be a newer. They may be lower on the list depending on what website is used. Pick the four bunk cabin, pick the express train. Can save a night at hotel, if going at night, plus train is nicer than sleeper bus.

    I was in Hue and Danang slightly more than a month ago, and it was hot. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. About trains, it would be wonderful if there could be a special train service linking Danang, Hue and Hoi An. This service could start by using existing track with augmentations for stations, and sidings to allow bypassing.

    I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TAKING THE NIGHT TRAIN FROM HANOI TO DA NANG!!!
    This was one of the highlights of my trip 4 years ago. I didn’t know what to expect. I’m 5’10 and I can assure you that their is plenty of room to stretch on the top bunk. Plus I like that my large backpack fit easily on the stowaway compartment. I was fortunate to have a quite train.
    My meal was the same as the other passenger except it came in a tray. Regardless, it was delicious. Great meal to start the day.
    But the best part was view. The train ride was when it really hit me, how beautiful Vietnam is. If you look to the left the train you will see turquoise shorelines and to your right you will see every shade of green till you hit the mountain. From their you see hills to mountains in shades of purple and blue. Really beautiful. On top of that you get to see water buffalos, rice fields and people tending to them.
    Thank you for making this video. I’ve been telling people about this train and now I can show them. Best! 😆

    Also the windows were so dirty on the outside that you never got a really good view of the countryside.
    Oh and someone came in at 4:00am to take the last berth in our cabin! Weird.
