We understand that you'd emailed us as well, but Irina has been busy w school and I with work!<br /><br />Since I was the one in charge of the train booking, let me be the one to tell you about it. We booked our trains on https://www.hanoisapatrain.com, and took the Livitran Express option. The ticketing agent's service was good (They were doing the best we can), but if I remember correctly we had to go down to their office to collect the train tickets. However, the office is quite central so the entire affair is not too inconvenient. <br /><br />The train is overnight (About 7 hours long, if I recall correctly). We shared a cabin with 2 others, but I'm sure you can get a private cabin if you spring for the more expensive options. <br /><br />Here are the details of our tickets (the sapa train station is called Lao Cai, FYI, and SP7 and 8 are the names of the trains for those specific timings)<br /><br /> Itinerary 1<br />Itinerary: Hanoi to Lao Cai on Livitran Express<br />Departure: 13-12-2014<br />Start time: 20:25<br />Train: SP7<br />Type of tickets: Soft Berth (4)<br /><br />Itinerary 2<br />Itinerary: Lao Cai to Hanoi on Livitran Express<br />Departure: 17-12-2014<br />Start time: 18:50<br />Train: SP8<br />Type of tickets: Soft Berth (4)<br />Trip Details<br />Number of passenger: 2<br />Payment Information<br />Ticket fare : 168 USD<br />Booking Fee: 0 USD<br />Other Taxes & Fees: 6.72 USD<br />Extra services fee: 0 USD<br />Total Amount 174.72 USD<br /><br />Since it was quite a while back, I may not be getting this right. However, if I remember rightly, we had to redeem the "ticket vouchers" that we got from our agent in Hanoi for actual tickets at the Hanoi train station. I'm not too clear on this, so you might want to ask the ticketing agent again and arrive early for your train.<br /><br />Hope this helps!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00236567397363432457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8998397202657385082.post-64768262582898782016-06-29T23:17:56.654+08:002016-06-29T23:17:56.654+08:00Heyy, could you let me know how you went about boo...Heyy, could you let me know how you went about booking your return train ride from Hanoi to Sapa?
