Hue to Nha Trang Destination Reviews

Manjit I booked the VIP first class carriage as I had read that the beds were softer. They were fine and after about 5 hours any bed is probably going to few uncomfortable. It was pretty simple from booking to catching the train. I arrived at gate two and the ticket had a carriage and seat already allocated, simple. What I didn’t realise is that I had booked a top tier bed. That meant that I was very close to the air con which had no controls, and despite it stating no smoking, all I inhaled for 12 hours was smoke. If it wasn’t for the lovely Vietnamese ladies below me and the man opposite who was train hoping because he didn’t buy a ticket 😆 I would have rated the journey lower. I also think the frequent stops and ability to get off now and again to grab something quickly to snack on was helpful. As all these reviews state, the toilets were awful, but the train food wasn’t too bad! So bottom tier, first class and bring a face mask.

Holger RNice car, in time. One stop in the mountains at a nice place to grab a coffee or go to toilet. Driver asked me for my hotel and dropped me off there.
Massageseats doesn't worked, but this didn't matter for me. Also no WiFi, only at the start and at the rest area.
Departure was little bit confusing, because Google maps showed me an other place, because there are two hotels with similar name in Nha Trang. (It's near the bridge) perhaps they could send GPS data instead of a confusing address.

As normally there is no congestion, the speed of travel is more or less constant and stops at train stations are rather short, train is almost always one of the quickest and safest ways to get from Hue and Nha Trang.
The most important thing that may affect train travel time is the type of train. Ordinary trains travel at a speed of about 40 mph or 65 km/h to 65 mph or 105 km/h. Some intercity trains with shorter distances between stations run slower than 40 mph. Even with these low speeds, it can still be faster than commuting by car, bus or taxi.

These speeds of travel together with relatively short stops between stations can greatly shorten the duration of your trip.

Best-Rated Companies for this Route
Unlike buses or taxis which have numerous companies offering their services, train service is usually offered by just one major company in each country. As railway service requires a large amount of infrastructure, most railway companies are government-owned and are a part of the national transport system.
One of the best advantages of travelling by train is that railway stations are often conveniently located within or very near major cities and urban areas. Immediately on arrival to their destination, travellers find themselves in close proximity to important facilities like hotels, supermarkets, and hospitals.
If you travel with a lot of bags and luggage, trains are your best option. Luggage weight limits on trains are rather flexible and allow you to carry multiple bags with you.
Special or luxury trains feature sufficient legroom which allows you to stretch your legs and relax. In comfort and space these train seats can be compared to business class airplane seats.
Similar to buses, trains can provide a variety of amenities to make your travel more comfortable and enjoyable. Modern trains have WIFI service, a snack counter and a drinking bar. Onboard toilets can be a life saver for travellers with queasy stomachs.
Lastly, unlike buses and other overland means of transport, trains are very rarely involved in accidents.
