- We recommend Soft sleeper at Tulico train or Royal train for faster and cleaner.
- We only can buy the return tickets from Hanoi for Tulico Royal train. For other normal trains, you need to buy the return ticket when you are in Lao cai or Sapa by yourself or request the hotel to buy for you (soft sleeper is not sure if you buy in short notice).
