In Hanoi, trains depart at Hanoi train station – 120 Le Duan Street, Hanoi. In Sapa, trains leave at Lao Cai train station which is 40km (1 hour driving) from Sapa town.
Once the booking is confirmed and completed, we will send you the train voucher / tickets through your email. You will use that train voucher / tickets to check in directly at both Hanoi (Gate 2A on the 2nd floor) or Lao Cai (Sapa) train station.
No, as long as you can carry the luggage onboard and take care of the luggage yourself.
Our ticket counters or check-in gates are only open about 1 hour before the departure time so you should not arrive too early. You should be at the train station about 1 hour before the departure time to exchange for the tickets at our ticket counters and get in.
Unfortunately there is no dinning carriage on our train. Our train leaves late at night so you should have dinner before boarding.
The toilet is outside of your cabin and it is located at the end of each carriage.
We are sorry that the prices are the best prices already. We only take care of the bookings made directly with us OR through our train’s website at: Family Express Train
Yes, but only in Sapa. We have shared shuttle bus (mini van) or private car (4 seaters, 7 seaters, 16 seaters, 29 seaters) from Lao Cai train station to Sapa town or vice versa. It is about 40km uphill road so it takes about 1 hour driving.
In Hanoi, we do not have this service since Hanoi train station is located inside Hanoi city center so it is very easy and convenient for you to take a taxi from your hotel.
