How to Make the Train Journey
from Bangkok to Chiang Mai


How do I catch a train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai?
If you want an economical way of travelling between Bangkok & Chiang Mai, Thailand's trains are both an economical and comfortable way to make the journey. They also give you an opportunity to see the stunning Thai countryside particularly as you wind your way up into the mountainous Northern Thailand area.

Its also an ideal way of meeting new friends, as this journey is wonderful as an "ice breaker".The trains are also considerably safer than the buses,cheaper than flying, and the most stylish way to getting to your destination - Chiang Mai !.

For longer routes, try the overnight sleeper train. This saves time by traveling as you sleep, and money by skipping a night's hotel fee.

There are a few people who prefer the day train journeys, not wanting to miss a single km of countryside. But,a little scenery goes a long way, and those few hours gazing outside before and after the beds are made up are enough for all but the most hard-core window watchers.
