Vietnam has secured two places on the list of the world’s 20 best train journeys for 2026, with the Vietnam Central Heritage Connection between Hue and Da Nang ranking 10th and The Vietage by Anantara placing 14th.

The ranking, titled The Best Train Trips in the World: 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards, is part of the 39th annual Readers’ Choice Awards by Condé Nast Traveler, based on 798,867 votes for travel experiences worldwide.

The magazine noted that the appeal of train journeys extends beyond transportation, offering passengers opportunities to admire landscapes, experience local life and enjoy the journey as part of their holiday.

Ranked 10th, the Vietnam Central Heritage Connection links two of central Vietnam’s heritage-rich localities, Hue and Da Nang. Launched in early 2024, the approximately three-hour journey passes through distinctive landscapes, including the Tam Giang–Cau Hai lagoon system, Lang Co Bay and Hai Van Pass.

At 14th place, The Vietage by Anantara represents a more luxurious approach to rail travel, bringing premium hospitality services on board. The train connects Da Nang with Quy Nhon and Nha Trang along Vietnam’s central coast.

The two entries demonstrate the potential of Vietnam’s railways to serve different traveller segments, from those seeking affordable cultural and scenic experiences to visitors looking for high-end holidays.
