Udon Thani to Bangkok Destination Reviews

KK
We had a really good experience on the train from Udon Thani to Bangkok in the sleeper bunks. Beds were pretty nice and we got lots of sleep. Pillow and blanket were nice too! Would definitely recommend train travel in Thailand

The train arrived at the destination in time. Friendly service, relatively clean, aircon cool but not too cold, the bunks are big enough even for most europeans and there is a power socket.

Good for 3rd Class but better to pay the extra $10 dollars or so and be much more comfortable.

Wagon very old, very noisy, fans out of order, nothing to do with the photo and explanations when booking on 12 go. Good "typical" side.

Found car and seats with no problems. The Steward was very helpful. The scenery on the way was beautiful. I will use this service again.

It was ok. Unfortunately I had seat 24, the window seat right by the door recess and therefore could not stretch out at all. I am quite tall and nine hours of this had me very stiff and sore by journey end. I wasn't sure if I was permitted to but I did think about transferring to third class. There was room to sit down and stretch the kegs there. The windows aren't particularly clean so not great for viewing and photography.
