Itinerary
From the train's perspective, Lap An Lagoon appears like a vivid picture with green patches of wet rice fields, rich flora and fauna, and floating water surface. You can see basket boats gently rowing on the water, creating a peaceful and quiet picture of a peaceful countryside.
Following Lap An Lagoon is Lang Co Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in Vietnam. Lang Co Beach attracts tourists with its smooth white sand and turquoise sea water. From afar, the mountain ranges and forests hidden in the mist create a majestic and wild scene.
As the train rolls through Hai Van Pass, passengers will witness a series of wonderful landscapes. First is the constant flow of the sea below, with white waves crashing against the limestone shores of the coastal strip. The vast seascape opens before your eyes like a work of natural art. Next, passengers will admire the majestic beauty of the eye-catching green mountain ranges, surrounded by fog and white clouds, creating a mysterious and romantic space. The scenery here is not only beautiful but also very immersed in nature, creating a feeling of relaxation and tranquility for those who pass by.

This train is very slow but so very scenic. We really enjoyed the views and the glimpses into the way of life of country Vietnamese people. Very cheap trip as well… $10aud from Hue to Da Nang. 😳
Beautiful scenery. However, one side of the train is substantially better than the other. When we booked, that was not mentioned and there was no way to select seats. Unfortunately, we were seated on the inferior side.
I booked two tickets for the Heritage Hai Van Pass train well in advance to make sure we got window seats. Despite reserving a month early, the intermediary assigned us two seats far from the window and even separated from each other. We ended up paying almost twice the official price without receiving any additional service. The intermediary later justified this by saying that other passengers had booked up to two months earlier, but the result is that—even with our early reservation—we were given the worst seats available (including seats blocked by pillars). A disappointing experience: I strongly advise against using this service. Buying the tickets on your own is definitely more convenient and reliable.
Hi, thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback with us. We’re truly sorry that the seating arrangement did not meet your expectations, especially as you booked well in advance hoping to enjoy the window seats. 🙏 We completely understand your disappointment. During peak periods, the Heritage Hai Van Pass train can become fully booked very early, and seat availability is unfortunately controlled by the railway system. While we always try our best to secure the best available seats for our guests, we understand that this does not make the experience any less frustrating when the seats are separated or affected by pillars. We’re also sorry that you felt the price did not reflect the service you received. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we will review this booking process with our team to see how we can communicate the seating situation and service inclusions more clearly before guests book. We sincerely apologize for the disappointment and appreciate your honest feedback. We hope you’ll give us another opportunity in the future to provide you with a much better experience. 🙏
Easy boarding process and communication. Beautiful countryside along the coast and very comfortable train!

Nice trip of nearly 3 hours and 30 minutes through different landscapes, each more beautiful than the last. Very pleasant experience

The Heritage Train from Hue to Da Nang was a decent way to travel between the two cities, but it was generally an average experience overall. The highlight was definitely the stunning ocean views as the train wound its way around the coast and approached Da Nang, making for some great photo opportunities. If you’re not in a hurry, it’s a good option for a slower-paced journey instead of travelling by road. Just don’t expect it to be a major sightseeing attraction in itself.
Dear Brian, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the spectacular coastal scenery along the journey. The breathtaking views of the ocean, mountains, and Hai Van Pass are truly what make the Heritage Train a unique travel experience, and we're happy you had the opportunity to capture some wonderful photos. We also appreciate your honest comments regarding the overall experience. The Heritage Train is designed to offer a relaxing and scenic journey between Hue and Da Nang rather than a fully guided sightseeing tour, and your feedback helps set the right expectations for future travelers. Thank you once again for choosing VM Travel. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to Vietnam and assisting you with more memorable experiences in the future. Warm regards, VM Travel Team
We almost missed the train due the station not being able to find the tickets we purchased through Viator. The train ran late making us late for our return journey. 1 st half of the trip had beautiful views, the 2nd is less spectacular. Staff on the train were great Seats are very comfortable

We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Vietnam and provide you with an even smoother and more enjoyable experience next time. Warm regards, VM Travel Team
Very good experience; the views from the train are super beautiful, and the experience of the food, the communal car with typical food sales and music performances, was very authentic!
