In this post I would like to show you guys how it was my experience of taking a train from Bangkok to the north of Thailand, Chiang Mai. I surely would do it again but a bit different. But it was a great experience, I've never traveled so much time in a train.
This photo is not exactly the way we went but it's just to show you the distance.
So the travel was not so long from (18h - 6h ) because I've slept most of the time, of curse, there is nothing to do. Let me show you how it is inside the train, the woman that we've bought the ticket from told us that it was a brand new train, and it really is.
This is our bed, hahahaha, not yet. When you want to sleep comes a guy and prepare the entire bed for you in 30 seconds, it's incredible!! 😲😲
This is how it looks like when the beds are on:
And inside it is not tho most comfort zone but it's cleaner than I expected, I had of curse a pillow and a light blanket.
When I was in the bed I had enough space to sleep tranquilly, and since everyone was sleeping, it was quiet, the train does not make too much noise. Next to the bed I had a lamp and a power plug where I charged my phone in all security. I was really quite impressed.
Sorry for the bad quality photos, not enough light and with my phone.
The train have of course a restaurant, where the food it's not so expensive, relatively good and you can chat and play games with your friends in the tables.
After some good sleep we arrive in the morning at the railway station in Chiang Mai, without even realizing the time.
So it was a nice trip, good sleep, security and clean. We had the normal class but if you can you can get the private cabin, but it is not so different from the normal class, so not worth it, but make sure you go in a new train. If I had to do again I would go by day to see the nice view, but that is for the next time. See you 😋
