An Evening of Anticipation and Elegance.
As dusk approaches, at around 06:00 PM, don your finest attire and join fellow travelers in the opulent restaurant.
Engage in lively conversation over refreshments, and the gentle sound of clinking glasses provides a delightful soundtrack. As the evening progresses, indulge in a sumptuous dinner crafted to tantalize your taste buds. Each course reveals culinary artistry, seamlessly paired with fine wines or expertly mixed cocktails.
With spirits high and anticipation mounting, the train begins its gentle departure from Saigon. The rhythmic motion of the train lulls you into a sense of peaceful relaxation.
Allow the anticipation of the adventures that await in Phan Thiet to carry you into a restorative night's sleep aboard your luxurious train.
The morning unfolds the journey to tranquil Ta Cu Mountain, a revered spiritual site in Binh Thuan. In the 18th century, under the reign of King Tu Duc, the mountain became a prominent pilgrimage site for Vietnamese Buddhists. Reach the summit, you will discover the architectural marvel of Linh Son Truong Tho Pagoda, which offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city.
Continue your exploration of Phan Thiet with a unique immersion into the heart of its culinary traditions. At 10:00 AM, step into the fascinating Fish Sauce Museum, where this essential Vietnamese condiment's pungent yet captivating aroma fills the air.
Unravel the centuries-old production methods and the profound cultural significance of fish sauce. Learn about its role in shaping Vietnamese cuisine and understand why it's considered the soul of countless dishes.
At around noon, savor the flavors you've just discovered during a leisurely lunch at an oceanfront restaurant. Delight in a selection of local specialties where the distinct taste of the sea shines through, expertly paired with fresh ingredients and regional culinary flair.
Afternoon: Echoes of the Champa Legacy
After lunch, journey to the historic Poshanu Cham Towers, perched gracefully atop a hill overlooking Phan Thiet. Built by the ancient Cham civilization, these timeless structures stand as silent witnesses to centuries of history, spirituality, and architectural mastery. Amidst the soft breeze and ancient stones, you can feel the lingering soul of a lost kingdom.
As the afternoon light softens, the train departs Phan Thiet, gliding northward through a landscape painted in golden hues. As night falls, retreat to the elegance of your private carriage and enjoy a refined onboard dinner, where curated Vietnamese and international flavors accompany the quiet beauty of the passing coastline, promising new horizons ahead.
Morning: Echoes of Faith and Handcrafted Traditions
After a peaceful breakfast aboard the train, the day’s exploration begins in the quiet heart of Phu Yen — a province where simplicity, tradition, and natural beauty converge.
Your first stop is Mang Lang Church, a stunning relic of Gothic architecture that has stood gracefully for over a century. Beneath its soaring spires and weathered stone facade, the church whispers stories of faith, endurance, and the meeting of East and West. Here, in the stillness of the morning, you feel the gentle weight of history lingering in the breeze.
From there, continue the journey to Phu Tan Mat Weaving Village, where generations of artisans have perfected the age-old craft of weaving mats from rush grass. As you wander through the village, observe the skilled hands at work, weaving colorful threads into practical yet beautiful creations. The scent of sun-dried grass fills the air, and the steady, rhythmic sound of the looms becomes an unexpected melody of rural life. It’s not just a visit; it’s a step into a living tradition — an invitation to slow down, to witness the artistry of hands guided by time and heart.
Midday: Celebrating the Sea’s Bounty
As midday approaches, return to the coast and prepare to indulge in one of Phu Yen’s most beloved culinary specialties. Crafted with the freshest local ingredients and a deep respect for tradition, the meal promises a true taste of the sea and the spirit of this serene region.
In the shaded calm of a local restaurant, savor a lunch that is both humble and elegant — where every bite speaks of the sea, the salt air, and the quiet pride of the fishermen who bring this gift to shore.
Afternoon: Gentle Return to the Rails
After a fulfilling meal, the afternoon invites you back to the train for a time of rest and reflection.
Settle into your cabin, perhaps with a book in hand, or simply gaze through the wide windows as Phu Yen’s countryside gently recedes — rolling fields, distant mountains, and narrow village roads weaving together a final tapestry of the land you leave behind.
Evening: Dining Under a Canopy of Stars
As twilight deepens into night, the dining car beckons. Here, amidst the glow of soft lighting and the clinking of glasses, a beautifully curated dinner awaits.
Each course is crafted to complement the day’s experiences — elegant yet unpretentious, much like Phu Yen itself. Outside, the world passes by in a quiet blur; inside, the evening unfolds with the warmth of new friendships and the lingering sweetness of a day spent close to the heart of Vietnam.
Morning: Approaching the Ancient Town
The train is scheduled to reach Tra Kieu train station. Guests will savor breakfast until 9:00 am and check-out at 10:00 am procedures commence.
