The trip from Bangkok to Chiang Mai, Thailand, can be a unique experience when you travel by train. We chose the First Class luxury overnight cabin (you actually buy 2 separate tickets). This is the most complete and detailed guide with everything you need to know in advance. In this vlog, you'll see the new train in Thailand, the Special Express, more modern and convenient. The departure is from Hua Lamphong train station at 6:10 PM. This is the fastest sleeper train, and the trip takes 13 hours. Learn how to get to Chiang Mai by train! Or go from Chiang Mai to Bangkok 😉 - Watch this series in Thailand from the beginning 👇 Complete Thailand travel guide: /watch/1=xedni&2OL8_AJ8TQJq18xsCrBkD4oH5sGO81tULP=tsil&0E9SgAVGWiDGe - All videos in SE Asia: /watch/-wvFtZUW3L3YamLvo36KQ5oH5sGO81tULP=tsil&sVuu5AMkLjEkF #RenataInThailand #RenataInBangkok #RenataInChiangMai #RenataByTrain --- SUBSCRIBE to discover the world with us ► http://bit.ly/Renata_YouTube --- In this vlog: 00:00 - What to expect 00:32 - MRT to Hua Lamphong station 01:08 - Hua Lamphong station 02:27 - What's in the first class 04:04 - Trip details 05:55 - Food options 07:37 - Train departs 07:56 - Toilets 09:00 - Second class sleeper 09:22 - Seats turn beds 10:22 - Next day & breakfast 12:19 - Arrival in Chiang Mai 13:39 - Bloopers and more info ✔️ Our main equipment: - Gordon's camera: https://amzn.to/3k4uZta - Gordon's main lens: https://amzn.to/2EK0wQP - My main camera in this vlog: https://amzn.to/2VoduJf - Microphone: https://amzn.to/2EJr1pz We tend to use different cameras in different videos, depending on the type of video and filming conditions.

I am a Brazilian-American journalist living in Florida. After traveling the world working with sports, news, and events for over 15 years, I realized that what I really love is the travel part of it all. So I exchanged life in the newsrooms and stadiums for the daily challenge of being an independent content producer. I created this channel to share the beauties of the world... stuff that for so long I only kept to myself. Also to help people planning similar trips and to inspire more people to venture out and enjoy life! P.S.: The funny guy who appears in the vlogs is my husband, Gordon. He is Canadian-American and he's actually camera-shy, that's why he's behind the camera most of the time 😉 --- NEW VIDEO ►►► https://goo.gl/rhM6Pw ---

    @RenataPereiraTVمنذ 4 سنوات Hello everyone! Here I am, just in time for the weekend We're back with the series in Thailand, this time taking you on a train ride from Bangk id="hidden1" class="buttons">ok to Chiang Mai, in the north of the country. For those of you in the USA, happy Thanksgiving weekend . Just a reminder, this trip was before the lockdown, that's why almost nobody is wearing masks. Stay safe and a big hug from both of us ....وسعت 146

    @stef6567منذ 3 سنوات For anyone considering this trip, I would strongly recommend taking the last train of the evening. You'll spend the following morning passing through id="hidden2" class="buttons"> the mountains of north Thailand, an amazing experience; if you take the earlier trains, you'll pass though them in the dark! ....وسعت 22

    @chicodenhoorn9118منذ 4 سنوات The most amazing part of the train trip for me was, that when you leave, you are in the middle of the city. When waking up in the train the next morning, the beautiful view of nature was awesome. 9

    @mikemocarski6916منذ 4 سنوات Things have changed quite a bit on that rail trip since I last took it about eight years ago. The cars are much improved with better sleepers and showers. id="hidden9" class="buttons"> At that time alcohol was allowed and they even had a party car. From 8pm till 12 the dining car would transform, lights went down music went up, you took a seat where you could find one. There were people from around the world what a blast. Your video brought back some good memories keep up the good work. ....وسعت 4

    @tonys1636منذ 4 سنوات Always loved long distance overnight train travel, 1st class of course, far less hassle than flying, and city center to center, saves the cost of an hotel id="hidden20" class="buttons"> room and if travelling for just a meeting two nights rooms, will we ever be doing that again! Bonus of often a fine dining car and bar all with scenery passing. One of these days will get to do one of the famous 4 - 5 day ones. ....وسعت 3

    @lucca_leeمنذ 4 سنوات Hope you enjoy the trip I dont take the local train like 10 years the last time was taking from BKK to KL the AC was freeze me to death. If you guys back id="hidden22" class="buttons"> to Thailand again in few months dont be surprised if Hua Lum Pong is no longer operating it will turn in to a museum maybe. Bangkok new Terminal is Bangsue Grand station (also connected to the MRT) it suppose to open this year but it bein posponed. Thailand been heavily building infrastructure a lot lately especially the rail system in both capital and regional what you guys took was a single track rail it cant be quick cause it have to wait to change to gauge so double track rail is a resonable solution and it under construction across the country along with the first high speed train line that going to connect betweeb Bangkok and China through Laos it also under-construction in both Laos and Thailand the Laos part might be complete ealier since China builds everything while Thailand part being built and founded by Thai companies it absolutely might take a while but 5 years according to plan. ....وسعت 6
