The trip from Bangkok to Chiang Mai, Thailand, can be a unique experience when you travel by train. We chose the First Class luxury overnight cabin (you actually buy 2 separate tickets). This is the most complete and detailed guide with everything you need to know in advance. In this vlog, you'll see the new train in Thailand, the Special Express, more modern and convenient. The departure is from Hua Lamphong train station at 6:10 PM. This is the fastest sleeper train, and the trip takes 13 hours. Learn how to get to Chiang Mai by train! Or go from Chiang Mai to Bangkok 😉 - Watch this series in Thailand from the beginning 👇 Complete Thailand travel guide: /watch/1=xedni&2OL8_AJ8TQJq18xsCrBkD4oH5sGO81tULP=tsil&0E9SgAVGWiDGe - All videos in SE Asia: /watch/-wvFtZUW3L3YamLvo36KQ5oH5sGO81tULP=tsil&sVuu5AMkLjEkF #RenataInThailand #RenataInBangkok #RenataInChiangMai #RenataByTrain --- SUBSCRIBE to discover the world with us ► http://bit.ly/Renata_YouTube --- In this vlog: 00:00 - What to expect 00:32 - MRT to Hua Lamphong station 01:08 - Hua Lamphong station 02:27 - What's in the first class 04:04 - Trip details 05:55 - Food options 07:37 - Train departs 07:56 - Toilets 09:00 - Second class sleeper 09:22 - Seats turn beds 10:22 - Next day & breakfast 12:19 - Arrival in Chiang Mai 13:39 - Bloopers and more info ✔️ Our main equipment: - Gordon's camera: https://amzn.to/3k4uZta - Gordon's main lens: https://amzn.to/2EK0wQP - My main camera in this vlog: https://amzn.to/2VoduJf - Microphone: https://amzn.to/2EJr1pz We tend to use different cameras in different videos, depending on the type of video and filming conditions.

I am a Brazilian-American journalist living in Florida. After traveling the world working with sports, news, and events for over 15 years, I realized that what I really love is the travel part of it all. So I exchanged life in the newsrooms and stadiums for the daily challenge of being an independent content producer. I created this channel to share the beauties of the world... stuff that for so long I only kept to myself. Also to help people planning similar trips and to inspire more people to venture out and enjoy life! P.S.: The funny guy who appears in the vlogs is my husband, Gordon. He is Canadian-American and he's actually camera-shy, that's why he's behind the camera most of the time 😉 --- NEW VIDEO ►►► https://goo.gl/rhM6Pw ---
