Overview

All-inclusive Hanoi – Sapa night train: sleeper cabin, Lao Cai transfer, Lao Chai – Ta Van village trekking, Sapa hotel and Fansipan option. 2N3D or 3N4D itinerary.

Introduction

What could be more "cool" than boarding the night train at Hanoi Station, dozing off in a sleeper cabin, and waking up amid the misty mountains of the Northwest at dawn? The Hanoi Night Train – Sapa package is a classic choice for travelers who want to save daytime hours and experience one of the most beautiful railway routes in the North.

Experience

The train departs from Hanoi Station around 22:00, arriving in Lao Cai at 5:30-6:00 the next morning. A private car picks you up at the station and takes you straight to Sapa (about 1 hour). After breakfast and rest, you start a gentle trek through the Muong Hoa Valley, visiting the villages of Lao Chai and Ta Van of the H'Mong and Dzay people. On the second day, you can choose to conquer Fansipan by cable car, explore Sapa town, or trek further to Cat Cat village.
