I've never heard of Sapa, until now. Nice video. The train station looked very interesting, then I remembered that you were leaving from Hanoi, so it was probably a pretty big station.

@WanderEats Жыл бұрын

Yeah very old but super large station. The 8hours plus ride was very memorable indeed. You should totally visit next time you are back for your Asean Tour perhaps in 2024?

Sapa has been on my list for places to visit the next time I am in VN. I am looking forward to seeing your upcoming content documenting your experience. Good video Daryl!

Thanks so much buddy and you definitely should visit at least spend a few days here and stay at the village which I regret I didn't have the time to do so.

Did you get to see inside any of the VIP cabins during your journey? When you were walking past them and we could see inside the windows, I assumed that your cabin would be just like those. But yours was more simple. But you did have a nice table lamp. 🙂 It seemed like your train was never going to end. In order to reach coach 8, it looked like you left the actual train platform and they had to build extra platform just to reach it. The train outgrew the train station.

There are only 2 cabin options available, dual or quad sharing and the price is very high for dual of course. It's even higher than a full quad cabin.. lol! When I walked past the long long train which as you said outgrew the station, I did see a few dual cabins and they are all occupied by tourists. From the photos, I believe all the quad cabins are the same but my friend booked carriage No.8 because he felt there might be a chance it would not be fully occupied but unfortunately departing on a Sat night, it very much was.

1st! Hola, Vectorian! The wooden interior walls looks so nice and comfy.

Oh yes my holy priest.. lol! Sharing the cabin with 3 friendly ladies chatting into the night was quite an experience. I'm pretty sure some of their giggles were about this clueless foreigner in their cabin... lol!

Hi! Do you have any contact for buying the van ticket from ga lao cai to sapa? I plan to go to sapa bt train to this april

@WanderEats 10 ай бұрын

Hi Elvira... thanks for dropping by the channel. I used nomnomtravel.com to make all the arrangements for me including train and bus ticket. I find it easier since they speak great English and I've been using them for nearly 10years. Another self service portal I'd recommend is vexere.com but need to work harder as some descriptions are in Vietnamese although the site supports English too. Happy travels and enjoy your time in Sapa this April sis... cheers!

Hi, may i have the link for the booking of the train? Thanks!

@WanderEats 7 ай бұрын

I booked mine via a travel agent (nomnomtravel.com) but if you are keen to self service, try 12go.asia

I see many different company logos on this train ... may I confirm if these companies own different train cars in this long train ?

@WanderEats Жыл бұрын

Yes you are absolutely spot on. That being said, most of them are quite similar with just different color scheme and branding. If you are traveling as a couple or can afford it, then get the dual bed cabin which are more comfy and private. Happy travels man!

thanks for the video. May I know How you get the ticket van from laocai train station to sapa city centre. And what is the cost per person.

@WanderEats 6 ай бұрын

Most welcome Selvester. As for the train ticket, I got it for VND 418k which includes the van transfer to Sapa from Lao Cai Station. But do note I book it through my friend's travel agency and if you are keen, you can contact him too at nomnomtravel.com (his name is Alex).

how was internet signal during the journey?

Sadly not good once the train left Hanoi and it was better again near the final train station. In Sapa itself its pretty decent though.

Bro how much is the train ticket from hanoi- lao cai?

@WanderEats Жыл бұрын

It cost me VND 401.000 one way for night train (RM78). It was a pleasant trip and would totally do it again too.

@pablofigueroa2057 3 ай бұрын

When you only want to Lao Cai from Hanoi how much the cost or when you ticket to Sapa but you stay over 1 night in Lao Cai and countinue to Sapa next day, Can you ?

@WanderEats 3 ай бұрын

Hi Pablo, just a quick check today, the price of the train ticket to Lao Cai alone is VND440k so it still is the majority of the cost. But you've got an interesting idea as I never thought of exploring Lao Cai town itself which could be interesting since its only a few km away from the border with China.

Is there wifi on the train?

@WanderEats 10 ай бұрын

Sorry for the late reply since your comment was hidden in spam. Sadly no wifi that I am aware of. If you get the local sim card, the data is also very bad once out of Hanoi main city.
