The Reunification Express departs from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi or vice versa, departing daily, with a route of 1,726 km.
Lonely Planet describes: "This is one of Southeast Asia's most beloved railways, and also among the world's most impressive overnight train experiences. There is no better way to reach Vietnam's two largest cities, as this train runs through historic urban areas and glides along majestic coastlines."
This publication once honored the Thong Nhat train in the top 10 most beautiful train journeys on the planet in 2018. Recently, in January 2025, the leading European train service company Rail Europe suggested the Thong Nhat train in the top 9 most worth-experienced railway routes.
Slow travel by train is gradually becoming a popular trend this year. In Vietnam, many train routes have been strongly restored by tourism routes. With many attractive ways of organizing, localities with the North-South railway route passing through have taken advantage of this to offer many attractive tourism products.
These include the “Heritage Train” from Da Nang to Hue, the tourist train “To the land of martial arts” from Quy Nhon station to Dieu Tri station (Binh Dinh province); the train route from Da Lat to Trai Mat (Lam Dong province); the Muong Hoa mountain train (Sa Pa city)… Each journey that the train goes through will help visitors admire the beauty of their homeland and country.
