I Took the Chiang Mai to Bangkok Sleeper Train for 13 Hours 🇹🇭
Here's the one you all asked for! In this video we spend 13 HOURS on an overnight sleeper train from Chiang Mai to Bangkok, in Thailand.
We opted for the First Class cabin to see what the best experience you can have travelling by train and railway in Thailand is - and it was a lot of fun!
We had some hiccups along the way, with some last minute changes sprung on us unexpectedly, but we overcame them and made our way to Bangkok!
See us arrive at Hua Lumpong Station, while travel through the country side of Thailand on the famous Chiang Mai - Bangkok, Bangkok - Chiang Mai Number 10 Sleeper Train!
I also give you a detailed review of the train, showing you all the different parts of the cabin, bed, and train itself.
Do you have any suggestions for things to do in Thailand?

Love train rides, haven't been to Chiang Mai yet, so it's a perfect idea for us when in Thailand next time. Thanks, Josie, your vlogs are fun to watch.☺

This was a thorough review! Huge thanks!! I'm planning a cycling trip to CM and BKK and will be taking the train with my bike.
Have a great trip !❤
New subscriber here! Watching your vlog reminds me of the trip I took from Bangkok to Nong Khai a few years back but I bought a 2nd class ticket instead. Lol if I were in that situation I would have starved myself cause I'm afraid I'll miss the train.

When I was in South East Asia in the 90s, I only took the train twice - bcoz it's the only transportation that we could use to immigrate our toy poodle to Singapore. Then my poodle had to go through a 30-day quarantine. It was from Ipoh to Singapore - 12 hours? The only memory I have now is my poodle and us sat quietly for 12 hours - we made it.

So if you travel as a couple you have to pay first one for the upper and one for the lover plus 1 so you get the cabin alone and don't get sepirated cabins?
Hahah the train trip! A great adventure but one I don't think I could do these days- a bit squashy for me - haha. Cost effective - train verses plane?

Hi there ... great video ... just wondering ... how big was your suit case ( if possible can you please mention in centimetres or inches)... we are planning a trip and want to make certain the suit cases fit under the seat like yours.
