SLEEPER TRAIN from Bangkok to Chiang Mai I is the FIRST CLASS cabin REALLY worth it? (with prices!)

- The quickest way to travel from Bangkok to Chiang Mai Thailand is to take one of the dozens of daily flights that can cost as little as $30 (1,100THB) but is it the BEST way to travel from Bangkok to Chiang Mai?
We decided to book a first class private cabin on train number 13 to find out if taking the overnight sleeper train from Bangkok Thailand's new Bang Sue Grand Station to Chiang Mai is still worth it in 2023.
Which overnight train is best from Bangkok to Chiang Mai?
The newest sleeper train is "Number 9" which departs Bangkok Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal at 18:40. The first class cabins on train number 9 look beautiful, but unfortunately it was fully booked when we were travelling so we booked train "Number 13" which departs at 20:05
How long is the journey from Bangkok to Chiang Mai?
The train left promptly at 20:05 and arrived in Chiang Mai around 08:45. Sometimes there can be delays but it should take less than 13 hours in total.

I’ve done two overnight train journeys in Thailand. The first was from Bangkok to Surat Thani (on my way to Koh Phangan). I opted for the communal compartment rather than a private cabin, as I was travelling alone and I just seemed an unnecessary expense. It was a great experience, I was chatting with a couple across the aisle, who were from the U.K., like me, talking about our travels. When the staff member came and made our beds up, I thought I might have trouble sleeping with the movement of the train, but I was out like a light and had the best night’s sleep I’d had in ages. Woke up, nice and early, to views of the jungle.
The second time was on the same journey you did, although I went from Chiang Mai to Bangkok. 8 had a couple of hours to kill before my train and I don’t like having to rush, so I went to a little cafe next to the station. They had a beautiful little garden, with a pond and some fish, and I relaxed there with some food and several mango smoothies to cool down. Slept just as well as the previous trip, although there was hardly anyone in my compartment, just a couple of people and we were spread out, so no conversation.
I much prefer the train to catching a plane. It may take longer, but I’m travelling through the night, so I’m asleep anyway. It was much cheaper than a flight when I went, so it saved me money, plus it’s one less night I have to pay for a hotel. Also, it’s a lot less hassle than boarding a plane, and much more comfortable. To me, it’s like going back to your hotel at night, except the hotel is a train and I get to wake up in a whole new city.
Thanks for sharing your experience 😊 Yes you're right it's a lot less hassle and actually saves the price of a hotel for the night as well 🙌
@@WhereNextFamily I've taken flights (more expensive back then @ maybe 3-3500THB) but more often the buses from CM/BK @ around 600THB one way. They turn the aircon onto ultra-chryo mode, presumably to encourage sleep under a supplied blanket. They stop part way so anyone can get off and have a meal, and you get a "breakfast" onboard before you hit the final destination. Really not bad by coach I'd say - never tried the trains though.
Following your conclusion (and I'm not up to date on current prices) unless you're getting a kick from scenery, an all inclusive overinght coach (you don't pay extra for your stop off meal or the "breakfast") is pretty good. Flights are cheap right now, but expect them to reinflate to pre-pandemic prices soon (unless we get another!).
Might be useful to know that certainly in Chiangmai, a typical unskilled wage is 10,000THB/month before stoppages - serving coffee, working in a postal dept or killing chickens in a factory, 10,000THB is almost a blanket wage. Agricultural workers get as little as 300THB/day. Average wages in this order are more like 15,000THB/month for Bangkok as you might expect.
A pint bottle of Chang beer (lager) is around 60 THB
A packet of 20 cigarettes is around 70 THB
A cheap meal can be bought for as little as 30 THB
Overall, the cost of living in Thailand is 1/5th that of the UK, and it never gets genuinely cold. If you're a puss like me, you'll want aircon so expect electricity bills in the order of
My wife booked us overnight to Vientiane, Laos. The seats were converted to single beds 5 foot long. I am over 6 foot tall, so could not get comfortable. When arrived next morning i had developed kidney failure. I spent the next week in a hotel room to recover. Then we had a very nice vacation in Laos. Then i booked airline tickets to fly back to Bangkok.
@rondodson5736 sounds like a health problem rather than a problem with the train.
I agree with Malia. ❤ I love travelling by trains if not in a rush. Love a slow, relax journey and an enjoyable scenic view.
Totally agree!
Confidently "Train!", you guys taught your child very well! Malia is gonna be a princess adventurer some day soon.
Haha yes she knows what she likes!
When I was young a few decades ago), my mom and aunt took us three kids to CM. We travelled by overnight train from Bkk. It was so much fun. I still remember that on the way back from CM to Bkk we bought some local food from the Varorot Market (sticky rice, local herbal sausage, fried pork, local green chilly paste) and had our dinner on the train. It was so delicious as we were eating good food on a train. It was such a good memory for us children. ❤😊 😊❤
That sounds amazing 😊 Hopefully Malia will have similar memories
Such a nice experience, very refreshing during rainy season, cute little girl, lovely!
You are so kind ❤️
Thanks for a very informative and well edited video (loved the intro music). I've been to Thailand many times but I never did the train ride. Thanks to your video we'll definitely give it a go when we return.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the support ❤️
35 years ago I used to take a train from Chiang Mai to Bangkok and Bangkok back to Chiang Mai. It was much more difficult. The train took 14 to 15 hours. Now Thai trains have developed a lot.
Not as delayed as before, train journeys are sometimes boring, sometimes spectacular.🇹🇭
Wow I bet it was different 35 years ago!
This looks very similar to how I remember 20 years ago.
ขอให้ครอบครัวของคุณมีความสุข สนุกสนาน กับการมาท่องเที่ยวในประเทศไทยนะครับ
อย่าลืม ชวนเพื่อนของคุณมาเที่ยวประเทศไทยด้วยนะครับ
ประเทศไทยยินดีต้อนรับครับ
🤝❤️👍✌️🍻🇹🇭
We love Thailand 🇹🇭 ❤️ 😍
@@WhereNextFamily Thank you very much for your love.
I'm traveling to Thailand in a month, so of course YT is feeding me lots of Thai centric videos. I really enjoyed your video style and look forward to following along. Subscribed!
Awesome. Thanks for subscribing, and we hope you have a blast in Thailand 🇹🇭
Wish you have a great time here in Thailand.
Absolutely brilliant first time watching. Very informative very real people.
Will follow your journeys going forward ❤
Welcome aboard! Thanks for watching, and commenting 🙌
Awww the view by the train window is worth everything!!❤
It's such a nice view to wake up to 😊
On the next occasion, this train station will undergo changes because Central Mall and King Power are currently bidding to construct a shopping mall in the Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal Station
Oh that's really interesting! Thanks for the info 😊
They not interest because hi sped train not complete and long distance railway still not much and most of them is third class
That why they not interest to investment
I know….and that’s terrible!! The top management had some under table to lease this land out, and destiny a historical 200 year old building!!!
@inzakaew the problem is when the train enter the city. All the traffic will be held up and cause terrible traffic jam. That is the main reason that they move it out
@@tommypaget2294 exactly but it is all for the greater good of the great and good the 4th industrial revolution so we must not have attachment to historic things and value, class and culture. Totally worth it to keep the families of a few top pigs set up for life.
Very informative and entertaining video.
As visiting Thailand is on my bucket list and a close friend retired to Chang Mai, so coming across your video was perfect! Am partial to trains rather than airplanes having grown up in France and travelled throughout Europe extensively.
I subscribed to your channel and look forward to exploring your content.
Enjoy your travels and thank you for taking us along.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for joining us 🙏
I love train travel! Great way to see the beauty of a country. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it
Did the night train to Chang Mai in 2003...great experience...ill take my daughter one day ...great video....subscribed and following youre adventures !!
The train looks fantastic! I love trains wherever they are, you can see the land, small towns, etc. Great video.
Thank you very much! We had a blast 🙂
Really useful info and insights that help my planning for next years trip - thanks a lot!
You're most welcome 😊
Tried this around 9 years ago and I agree with Malia, the train is better. We also boarded the train from the Old Station, glad to know that they have moved to a bigger place, it was a bit Chaotic at the Old Station. I really enjoyed your Vlog and watched your other Episodes too.
Thanks for the kind words 🙂
Yes the new station is WAY nicer than the old one!
OMG! You guys are so adorable and fun to watch. I am so excited that I found you. We will be taking the train in a couple weeks and this video was so helpful. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words. We hope you have a blast 😀
Thank you, this was really helpful 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Really enjoyed this breakdown of travel with the pros and cons as well as a few tips! New Subscriber

I just stumpled on your chanel and I love it. I love how you take take to explain things and break down the cost per item. Well done video....and your daughter is so adorable....
You're very kind, thank you 😊
Hey Guys - just stumbled across your channel and watched some of your videos, and i must say its so nice watching your family travel videos, because they are authentic, i am annoyed that YT keeps pushing these family videos on me where the families confess to giving their children the true life experience, yet they are waited on hand and foot from luggage being carried for them and staying in hotels with personal butlers and traveling first class, that will not teach their children the real world, only that they can have anything they want, and life is not always like that - but your videos show how a real family can do things and i admire you for taking your daughter on this amazing journey - I am older now and did my travels before the age of youtube and smart phones and travelled all over the world, but then family life got in the way and work etc, my children will be 18 soon and i intend on travelling again to see how things have changed over the last 25 years, i am sure i will need to adapt my travels based on my age now, but i look forward to it and i will be binge watching some of your playlists to get me motivated - Thanks
Thank you for the kind words. We're glad that you enjoyed watching and that you can see we don't airbrush anything. This is our life on the road full time so what you see is exactly what we are doing 🙂
Sometimes we do dream of the day where Malia is 18 and we can travel romantically again 😂 Hope you have a blast 🙌
Definitely worth it for the experience. Creating memories
100%
Very cool! I will be taking that train. to Chiang Mai, per your suggestion. I love to fly, but you see so much more that way. Great video! Thanks😉☠
That makes us happy 😊
If you want the newer train it departs at around 6pm I believe. This was the 8pm
is also good. thank you sharing wonderful video. Have a nice day
🙏❤️
So interesting to watch its beautiful to see the wild green nature and my favourite thing about the train. I took the train from Bangkok to Malaysia overnight and those long trips are some of my best travel memories. Subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Oh we thought about taking that journey too! It's meant to be beautiful 😍
Thank you very much for visiting Thailand.❤🙏
Our pleasure! Thank you for the warm welcome 🙂
You are a nice family travelling 'heavy'. It was a pleasure to bump into your blog. Wish you all the best and good safe travels. 👍
Thanks so much! 😊
Although it take a long time, but you can see a lot of beautiful scenery. Happy to see your family enjoy the trip in Thailand.❤
It really is!
We did a 16 hour train journey from trivandrum to Puducherry Southern India, first class was fully booked so we went second class and there were 6 bunk beds in our cabin plus 2 beds opposite the walk way. we had to book online before we went putting in our ages and realised on the train why we had to do it, we thankfully had the two bottom bunks because were not young enough to climb up to the top two haha, scenery was amazing with free chai and meals loved it, thank you for this video as we are thinking of doing this next year xx
Sounds amazing! 🙌
Awesome video, I've been wanting to take the night train for a while now!
Thank you. It's definitely worth it at least once 😊
Your daughter is precious! It’s awesome that she gets to travel the world!
Thank you 😊
We try to open her mind as much as possible at a young age
I like parents spending money on traveling with kid instead of buying things for kid. Thailand are the best place to be 😊welcome to my home.
welcome to Thailand, have a great time and enjoy your trip.
Thanks! 😃
Done it a few times always loved it, and watching this ❤
Yes its an awesome journey 😀
Awesome and beautiful family! Loved watching!
You are so kind. Thanks for watching ❤️
Lovely video of your adventure, your family is beautiful, stay safe enjoy your travels - take care
Thank you! You too!
I think the best advice comes from your daughter on whether its better than a plane trip. Great video and very informative
Totally agree!
Traveling by train is always healing my soul. I mostly travel alone so daytime
would be better for me.
Thank you for coming Thailand. I love and
accepted your comments. Hopefully our service will satisfy all the passenger in the future.
*Your British accents is very lovely. 🤭
Yes we love the train as well 😊
Not sure if 13 hours in the day time would be so fun though 🤣
Thank you for the kind words
@@WhereNextFamily Thank you for your replied. I am traveling alone and
never sleep in train. Night time for myself is the thing that I have to avoid. However if they can reduce time to 11 hours would be better for all passengers.
@@WhereNextFamilyit’s 10 hours during the day due to a DMU train instead of a loco hauled train
I love this thai train, wish to do again.
There is a newest train leave from Bangkok around 18 o'clock and arrive Chiang Mai around 7 o'clock in the morning.
Enjoy Thailand!
Yes unfortunately that one was fully booked, so we had to get the later one
What a beautiful family. You all have such friendly faces. The room looks to be just slightly larger than a roomette that you would find on an Amtrak train in the US. I don't think I have ever seen a long route train where you can open the windows. This is pretty unique.
Thank you 😊, I'm glad you enjoyed it ❤️
This came up in my feed. Great vlog. As you called it, depends on your agenda. Some of the views you had here were for me priceless, and to a certain extent a main reason why you're heading up north in the first place...the jungle, the hills, the mist. The old Hua Lamphong Station was a sauna yet so much part of the experience. Had a couple mates on separate trips get food poisoning from evening meals, cold beers all good...but there was nothing like the rocking of the train whilst you were trying to get to sleep. Loved it. Yes get stung on train food...sabai, sabai. Wonderful trip down memory lane for an old fella. 😂🙏
Thanks for the comment 😊
Yes we really enjoyed the trip and the more we think about it the more we would choose train again and again 🙌
I have visited Thailand 4 times in my life and have not tried getting on the train to go to Chiang Mai yet. That will be my next trial. Thank you for making this video and lovely family. I was just stumbled on to your video. I was showing on my feed you know just like Instagram
You're welcome 😊 I'm glad you're trying it!
ทริปนี้โดยรถไฟ คำตอบทุกสิ่งอยู่ที่มาเรียเลยครับ เด็กๆพูดความจริงเสมอ ดูสายตาเขาได้

Thank you 😊 she had a magical time ❤️
I'm Thai people. Thank you for sharing your family experiences. I like that recommendation from you, your wife, and your kid. We should consider our family trip with the new experience. It was fun for kids that is the important thing.
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching ❤️
I love that they still have windows that open on that train. I def need to check out Thailand. Cheers from USA 🥂
Yes its an awesome experience. Get in there quickly before health and safety rules come in 😂
Hi man, greets from holland. I really love the night trains in Thailand!!
I always look out for them! 😁✌🏻👍🏻
Welcome to the channel 🙏
Yes they are great fun 😀
Looks like a great way to see the countryside in relative comfort.
It really is!
great video thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
So glad I found this video I wads drawn because I was researching for a hopeful future trip that I am planning, besides the fact I was wondering weather to take the train (agree also with lovely Malia train rides are exiting) or plane, I was also drawn to such a lovely, charming, beautiful family you are. You speak very eloquently and are so likable that I had to subscribe. Thank you for the information and look forward to more videos
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for your kind comments 🙏
Just subscribed to your channel. Thoroughly enjoyed the video. Think ill try the train next time I'm in Thailand
Nice 😊 Thanks for joining us
You've got a new subscriber :) Came into Chiang Mai 12,5 years ago with a 5-years old, 3 years old and 1,5 years old. Did some train journeys both ways and even one time to Surin. Living here since 12,5 years ago. Train is fantastic (with just some small backpacks)
That is awesome!
Nice genuine VLOG & great family train travel. Beautiful little daughter at good age travelling with great parents & she will remember this train journey watching jungle by train restaurant window. Train journey is a timeless experience through South Asia. Great family bonding. Enjoy more family travels in South East Asia with your beautiful little daughter. Bon voyage
Thank you so much 🙂
I've done the Bangkok to CM and had a great time. But the best rail journey I've had was in Sri Lanka, Colombo to Kandy and onto Ellya.
We took the train in Sri Lanka and it was one of the worst experiences ever haha.
Ina was mid-way through her pregnancy and the train was PACKED. We had to sit on our bags, half hanginging out of the door because there was no space on the train 🤣
Zermatt Switzerland. Just breathtaking. Going soon to asia, thanks for the tips
Have fun!
Very informative think I will get the train there and fly back thanks 😂
Have fun!
That looks pretty cool, normally I fly to Chaing Mai. We generally visit and then go back to BKK. I've done a few sleeper buses in Vietnam and a sleeper train in Vietnam but the scenery looks really nice.
Yes its a very nice journey 😊
Amazing channel. I really love your videos. 👍🙏
Thank you very much!
It 's so good for your trip
🙏❤️
Loved the video, learned some good info for our trip, thank you! ❤
Glad it was helpful!
So nice to see a youngster experience so much.
She's having a blast for sure 😊
Definitely worth taking the train !!!
Agreed! 👍
Great video
Thanks for the visit
The expresstrain No.51 Bangkok - Chiangmai is my favorite choice to Chiangmai, The view during Denchai(7:30am) to Changmai(12:30) is very nice 🙂
Thanks for sharing!
thank you so much bro..with ur this beautyful vlog i can re-call my past life in bkk and ciang mai.. i hope you can travel ciang rai also🙏🥰🥰👌
My pleasure 😊 I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙏
Welcome to Thailand it very nice video
Thank you 😊
It was the coldest train ride that I ever endured. It was 62F in my First Class Cabin which I had my leather jacket on and shivering all night long while other areas will be 95F. One can easily get sick from this. Will probably never travel on the train again.
Oh wow! We found the temperature fine. There was adjustment for the air conditioning in our cabin. Sorry you had a cold night 🥶
amazing family! love you i will be following on SM
Awesome! Thank you!
Very lovely family and informative video - thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the support 🙏
That looks amazing! I hadn't thought about the night train. It actually helps me fit a bit more adventure in my stay as I will be sleeping while traveling! Would you book this online or get the tickets at the strain station? I tried to have a look online but couldn't find the first class option..
First class is almost impossible to buy online, and buying at the station is risky as tickets may be sold out.
I would recommend booking through a tour company. We used one called Bamgkok buddy for a few things and they were great. They have a website and are contactable via WhatsApp as well 😊
something was good something was bad(we're apologize).
but everthing was experience like you said.
we like your all smile. wish you happy n safe all trip. 🥰
Overall it was amazing. Nothing was "bad" we just make sure we give our full opinion 😊
Just found your channel and really enjoyed it. I would probably take the train for the experience and just pack fruit and drinks and nuts for my repast .
Welcome aboard! Glad you're enjoying the content.
Yes you've definitely got the right idea!
This is the dream! Thank you🙂
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching 🙏
I first took the First-Class sleeper from Nong Khai to Bangkok with my 'large' family back in 2003. Great experience. We did it again in 2010 and then in 2021 - I live in the Philippines. For me, train trips in Thailand are wonderful. I have done BKK to Isaan, BKK to the South (extendinf to Malaysia) as well as BKK to Ubon, Khorat, Roi Et and Loei Province. It's all fun.
Yes trains are a great way to see a country. I just took an 11hr train in Sri Lanka and it was beautiful 🙏
Nice trip on the train... seeing the jungle from the windows... maximum!
Yes it was! 🙂
Excellent Video. I may do the same trip in a few months. The video is clear. What type of camera do you use?
Have fun!
We shoot on Sony FX30
Wellcome to Thailand🇹🇭 I like your family❤❤
Thank you 😊 We like you too ❤️
Welome to Thailand ❤ Love your family 👪
Thank you verymuch for family travel to chiangmai by night train 08.05pm(train no.13)from bkk I always travel to chiang mai in this train too. because this train is beautiful mountain view and good service . love where next family khob khun krab.
Thank you for the kind words 🙂 We're happy you enjoyed 🙏
The train from Mombasa Kenya to Nairobi was magical! We were able to see elephants, zebras, buffalo and more. It is very modern and incredibly on time. it gets into Nairobi at night so you also get a gorgeous sunset on the way in. First class was a bit more spacious but definitely not luxury.
Thanks for sharing! We'd love to do this 😊
@@WhereNextFamily I did that train with my daughter when it was the old train. Best journey of my life!
How much was it?
@@CassandraMooree About $30 per person
Enjoying your videos. :)
Glad you like them!
Welcome to Chaing mai.Have a nice trip.
Thank you! 😃
Nice job with the video. Informative. Nice family. Remain safe.
Thank you! Will do!
I have rode that sleeper train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai and back to Bangkok. The first trip I selected the cheaper common car sleeper ($15) and it wasn't that bad. I don't recall them having a "dining car" at that time, we were served our meals in our seats before the stewards converted them into beds. Once you got used to the motion of the train, sleeping was no problem! The only issue was the bathrooms ...the "toilet" was basically just a hole in the floor of the train!💩
My second excursion on the sleeper was in a private room, ($30), better bed and more room.
The only problem there was the guy in the next compartment! He was smoking in his room, which is not allowed, and he got angry when I complained. I don't smoke and Turkish cigarettes STINK! The stewards threatened to put him off the train at the next stop if he continued to smoke!
I also tried the day time train to Chiang Mai. The scenery was amazing! I saw a lot of Thailand on that trip! In total, I was in Thailand for about 6 months ....my heart💘 is still there!🦂🙏🥂
Awesome story 🙌
Yes the toilet on the older train is still a hole in the floor 🤣 but it's OK and it was clean 🙂
We have also done the communal sleeper area before as well and enjoyed it. This time we only went private as we were with our daughter.
Thanks for watching, and I hope you get the chance to visit again one day 🙏
Loved your film thank you. We are going in March, how do you actually book the first class train from the UK in advance?
We used an agent called Bangkok Buddy. First class cabins are very limited so its definitely recommended to book in advance
Wow,hope you have nice holidays in Chiangmai mai ❤❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
Very informative video. You mentioned several flights everyday to Chiang Mai from Bangkok. What airline do you use/recommend? Do you book in advance or last minute?
Thank you.
AirAsia are pretty reliable for flights but all the airlines are pretty similar to be honest. Cheap and cheerful 😉
Thanks for sharing your daughter is lovely and cute, enjoy your trip to Chiang Mai.
Thank you so much!
Great video!! Very helpful indeed! How did you book your 1st class cabin? We want to book ours in advance but can only see 2nd class. Did you book it at the train station or on a website? 🙏🏻
Online it's almost impossible to book 1st class as they have limited cabins so don't advertise them. Best is to use an agent. We used Bangkok Buddy for ours 🙂
It's a huge terminal because of the China Belt & Road initiative where they are sharing the cost with Thailand to built a high speed train from Bejing to Signapore through Thailand. Rail travel will be expanded and will be more common than flying in 5-10 years.
Thanks for the info! I had no idea
Glad i find this lovely family ❤
You are so kind ❤️
We are staying a month in Pattaya and feel like Chiang Mai might be a great spot to extend it. We also travel full time so checking bags is always a hassle. Train sounds like the way to go!
Chiang Mai will be a breath of fresh air for sure 🙂
Nice honest description of this train trip! Good input! So how much was the private compartment for one person? The monthly rental for that shabby apartment seemed a bit high!
I think you have to pay for 2 people even if you're alone
The old station Hua Lampong is just 4 km south of the new station and it is still inner-city and not outskirts. Krungthep is a 20 mill City and edge of town is dozens of miles further. Thx for taking train
Yes its a bit of a mission to get to. I heard they are bidding to build ANOTHER mall on the side of it
Travel by train with friend/family is an good option for chilling bring any book/card game to play with it's really much fun
Very true 👍
Thank you for visiting Thailand
Our pleasure! Thanks for having us 🙏
I..like..your..final.. comments..with..your..family..about..the..trip.. budget..well..done..again..!😊😊😊
Thanks..so..much..for..the kind..words..

Thanks for the insight. We are planning a trip for 2024...
Glad it was helpful! Have a great trip!
Good onya what a beautiful family 🙏 ❤
You are so kind
Lol even studio flats in the UK where I’m staying in the South are going for £1000 per month now due to inflation….. don’t come back!!! Nice video love the train journey 👍🏻
Don't worry we couldn't afford to come back even if we wanted to 🤣🤣🤣
Agreed with you about travelling to Chiangmai by train.
I am Thai and I did it 20 years ago. I decided to fo to Chiangmai by train even I had to pay more because I wanted to try.
I watched the documentary and saw the beautiful views alongside in the moring while travelling through Khun Tan, Lampang province.
I did the same as you. Lol... I traveled by train alone that time. Feel very very good..
Yes its a beautiful experience. I'm glad you felt the same 🙂❤️
