It's a train tour to Phan Thiết- Mũi Né with a very lovely family. We took an early train from Ho Chi Minh city at about 6.40 AM. It's 200 kms away from Hcmc and took about 4 hours. Getting a sleeper can help your back feel more comfortable but a seat still good for sightseeing.
Ticket : ~ $8 USD
When we hit the Phan Thiết train station, as scheduled, a car driver came and picked us up to a restaurant and to a 4 stars resort. After having lunch, we unpacked and relaxed in the lovely place with very nice views.

After dry-up, we changed clothes and headed to a restaurant for dinner. Back to room and go to bed early.
The next morning, we woke up and checked out the surrounding areas.
- First, we visited the fishery village. Local people were busy with trading while travellers were excited with taking photos and exploring new experience. Seeing local lifestyles and purchasing some fresh seafoods is a must for all culture vultures.

- Second, we moved to the Red Sand Dune ( Đồi Cát Đỏ). The sunlight in Mũi Né is scorching. We were there at about 7.30 AM but couldn't stay under sun too long. So the best time for you to get around is in the early morning ( from 4.30 AM to 6AM) or in the late afternoon ( after 5PM). It took 5 mins to walk up the hill.

Sand there is colorful. If you have a chance to visit all the famous places in Mui Ne, you will see the variety of sand dunes as well as its colors.
- Third, Suối Tiên- Fairy Spring was our next destination. We had fun all the way walking on soft sand and amused by magnificent landscape.
