This is a fully chartered train service organized by the Hanoi UNESCO Club in response to the “Vietnamese People Travel in Vietnam” program initiated by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism in 2020.
After its launch and initial implementation, the charter train achieved certain successes, operating seven trips in 2020 before being interrupted by the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Ms. Le Thi Ngoc Ha, Deputy Director of the Quang Binh Provincial Department of Tourism, stated that the charter train is a novel tourism product, providing tourists with more options when visiting Quang Binh.
“With the resumption of the charter train service, this will be a new tourism product added to the options available to visitors to Quang Binh, contributing to the promotion and development of the province’s tourism industry,” Ms. Ha said.
Following the train’s arrival at Dong Hoi Station June 9, the Hanoi UNESCO Club plans to operate two more charter trains, scheduled to depart on June 22 and July 13, respectively.
