26 HOUR OVERNIGHT TRAIN Saigon to Da Nang (is it worth it?)

The first class overnight train to DaNang was… an experience. Today we’re leaving Saigon (aka Ho Chi Minh City) and riding our first ever sleeper train to Da Nang, Vietnam. After facing many train delays, vehicle transfers, and noisy neighbors on the train, we’re taking a quick ride to our final destination of Hoi An! Thanks for joining us for our Vietnam vlogs :) Stay wiggity!

At the end you were still smiling. That shows what lovely people you are.

[@JillandHannah]

Thanks Peter 💜

[@regrr1774]

Thank you for this! I'm planning our trip for next year and my mom (senior citizen) wants to try this overnight train. This will definitely convince her to just don't (she forgets her age sometimes lol). I want to try this though but with my friends in some other trip.

[@jacksonj3082]

With the variety of experience - the bad / so-so times help to make the good experiences even better.

[@mindandsoul-1]

That's the best experience and expression of all time of your videos heheh

[@FrancescoGargiulo-k6h]

Credo che non vedevate l'ora di arrivare per poter scendere da quel treno dove di prima classe c'eravate soltanto voi!

[@monbeotube1]

You guy should try the SE21 train, they have rebranded as a highclass train few months ago, toilet and room are so much better than this train

[@wrenchwiki8036]

I have been watching your videos in preparation for a similar trip in the near future. I especially thank you for this one. I will be flying for sure now that I see what you went through. Hopefully the plane won't have been made in the 1960s. Keep up the great work.

[@JillandHannah]

Glad this helped!!

[@MrsSajberry3]

That was one heck of a train ride. Can't believe your roommates had a party in your room, lol.

[@vy311]

Traveling by train is one of the worst experiences in VN. Trains in the country are noisy, dirty and inconvenient. The toilets are terrible. I would definitely never go by train even if it was free. Going by coach is better for me. And of course the best way is by air.

[@southpaw1755]

You two are fun. Thank you.

If you decide to go to Hue next, there are some tourist minibuses that goes back and forth from Hoi An to Hue, and vice versa. The buses will pick you up at your hotel in Hoi An, stop at Marble Mountain in Da Nang, over the Hai Van Pass with a stop to take in the view, stops at Lang Co Beach, and then a final stop at the historic Thanh ToanTile-roofed Bridge, and arrives at check-in time at your hotel in Hue. There is also another bus that goes the opposite way from Hue to Hoi An. Stops also may vary depending on the bus company you book. It was likely more expensive than the train. I think it was about $25 US when we did it, but was cheaper than a private car. Still, we got to do some sightseeing along the way with a guide, but we did miss out on experiencing more of the Vietnam train experience.

Nice content hill and nambah.. i just remind you all that end of time is near prepared with do charity to your goodness in eternal life...

Nice video 👍❤❤

[@joakimbjerknes]

Believe me, the 1st Class trains used to be worse(!), the toilet you had, is modern compared to the squat toilets with ice cubes(!?) they used to have... and annoying habits abroad is all part of the overall experience ;) Oh, and don't remove the lizards, they do eat the other bugs such as spiders, ants , mosquitos and cockroaches...

[@JillandHannah]

Ice cubes??? I’m so confused lol

[@joakimbjerknes]

@@JillandHannah what do you think I was? Not even sure if the ice cubes were meant to slowly melt and flush, either way... weird!

I love your travels girls

[@JillandHannah]

Thanks for watchin!

[@May-u8l-f9j]

I would of had to say something to them ,so rude disrespectful,keep smiling Gecko scare me 😂 hoi an nice not much to do ,mountains and islands north Hanoi is beautiful Safe travels

[@anoncal]

Its like 70 usd for a flight from saigon to da nang i just would do that

[@zucchinhi]

i dont really recommend traveling by train in vietnam unless you are on a spend limit but if you would like to see the scenery and experience it then i’d recommend booking on the SE21 and SE22 trains! regardless, i hope everyone here have nice travels and i apologize for the roommates behavior. we may party hard and talk loud but we normally do it at the right time and place and are quiet and respectful otherwise. their behavior depicted in the video is very disrespectful even to vietnamese people if they were to see it

[@Hammocktraveller]

Thanks for the info. I will stick to planes. 😂😂😂

[@JillandHannah]

Excellent idea

[@PreludeSon]

I know how you feel about people don't care about your need of sleep....freakin crazy.

[@Van-j9r]

You girls so cute and funny.

[@JillandHannah]

thank you friend! :)

[@NamLe1975]

The sellers are rude. Don’t look at them shake your right hand side to side and say “Khong”. If they keep persisting I find speaking perfect English and sounding mildly annoyed drives them away.

[@davidgondlach]

Hi girls..were the other people vietnamese ?

[@elly5740]

i see you missed the metal foot pedals by the door.

[@JillandHannah]

Yes lol

[@kevintann_357]

Pay a few more $ go by plane get there about 1 hour.

be careful when booking these train for family with kids. We book 1 cabin with 4 beds last week they put us in four different cabin you can't get your money back.

[@ocmanga5685]

Tôi cũng gặp trường hợp tương tự, nguyên nhân là không nói với họ về việc gia đình tôi muốn ở cùng một cabin. Rất may là đã thương lượng đổi chỗ được cho những hành khách khác.

Dont ever taking train to traveling around vietnam..

I just subscribed but had to unsubscribe because of all the sarcastic complaining. not for me. sorry

[@jacknguyen6036]

I mean it’s unfair for them to get that treatment no??? Mannerisms don’t really exist with lower class ppl

[@lancerkiller3200]

@@jacknguyen6036 not talking about just the treatment but the overall energy of the video. i used to like some of thier vids but got turned off on this one. the sarcastic smiling all the time. seen too many of those types.
