胡志明（西贡）到岘港市 的票

We took the train in Vietnam twice. The first time it was an old wagon and it seemed quite dirty, but the second time the wagon was new and nice . The air conditioning is a problem since it is really strong and the blankets that provide inside are not enough . . rather than that the stuff was nice , the departures and arrivals were on time ( and even earlier) .

Everything is great. Quickly efficient and pleasant. You're a little nervous.

Only slightly negative thing was that they don’t speak any English at all, besides that nothing to complain about.

The train ride was decent experience, and I’m glad I did it. I shared a 4 person cabin with a Vietnamese family. Having the top bunk allowed me to keep my possessions safe, though it limited my view out of the window. The AC was so cold I had to put on all my clothes to keep warm. The only thing that really bothered me was that people smoked in the hallway. I can’t fathom how that’s still allowed in confined spaces anywhere in the world. In any event, it was an adventure, and I got to get a feel for a different path of Vietnamese society and geography. I might look into other options next time though, due to the smoking.
