Hi Mapsa,

There is no Train Station in Hoian, so you have to get off at Danang and then take a taxi/car to drive for 37km to Hoian.

The fastest train ( Express Train ) from Hanoi to Danang takes around 12 hours - that would be a long journey. And you CAN NOT book your ticket online via their website http://www.vr.com.vn

I would recommend you to take an airplane by Vietnam Airlines

Hi

Unless you have a burning desire to travel by train FLY. you can book on-line with either Vietnam Airlines or Jetstar. I think you will find the cost of a jetstar flight not that much different from the train cost.

We trvelled on the Reunification Express (the train you would take from Ha Noi to Da Nang) and it wasn%26#39;t terriby comfortable or enjoyable for us, even though we had the most luxury cabin.

I also recommend flying.
