The Night Train From Chiang Mai to Bangkok, Thailand

www.TravelsWithSheila.com Frequent trains make the long 14-hour journey from Chiang Mai to Bangkok and the most comfortable are the overnight trains. It's only a one-hour flight by plane between cities but serious budgeters take the train to save money and for the experience. Why 14 hours when an airplane flies the route in one hour? The train makes stop....after stop....after stop. No sooner do you fall asleep then the train lurches and screeches to yet another stop. Buy a hard seat ticket, soft seat, berth in a open second class compartment or a first class, two berth only compartment. Whichever you decide on, it is an "experience."
