THE STORY
A Visionary Journey Through Time
Inspired by heritage and adventure, SJourney blends Indochine elegance with modern luxury, redefining rail travel in Vietnam with unforgettable journeys celebrating culture, history, and discovery.
SJourney represents a pioneering spirit in the realm of luxury travel within Vietnam, encapsulating both a profound respect for history and a vibrant vision for the future. The origin story of this unique luxury train service is intricately tied to Vietnam’s own historical narrative and the vision of its founder, Mr. Son. Vietnam’s railways have a storied past that stretches back to the colonial era, particularly during the resistance against French and American forces. These railways have witnessed significant historical events but have not seen extensive development as luxury travel options. Mr. Son is a lover of travel, mechanics and machinery. During his trip to explore the world, he thought why other countries have luxury trains but Vietnam doesn’t have them. Meanwhile, Vietnam also has beautiful natural scenery, delicious cuisine and developed trains.
This realization sparked the idea for SJourney, Vietnam’s first luxury train, designed to offer an unparalleled travel experience. Mr. Son envisioned a train that would not only traverse the beautiful landscapes of Vietnam but also immerse its passengers in the cultural and historical essence of the country. This led to the birth of SJourney, a name that symbolizes a journey beyond the ordinary, with a service designed to surpass all expectations.
The design and ambiance of SJourney are heavily influenced by the Indochine style, reminiscent of the golden era of the 1930s when trains like the Trans-Indochina connected diverse parts of Southeast Asia. This style evokes a sense of nostalgia yet is infused with modern luxury, aiming to recreate the romance of old-world travel combined with contemporary comfort.
SJourney’s route itself is a tapestry of Vietnam’s rich history and vibrant culture, covering the iconic S-shaped geography of the nation. From the bustling streets of Hanoi to the dynamic vibrancy of Ho Chi Minh City, the train stops at numerous majestic destinations. Each stop is an opportunity for passengers to engage with Vietnam’s heritage, from its heroic past to its dynamic present. Through SJourney, Mr. Son has not only created a luxurious means of travel but has also crafted an immersive experience that allows travelers to appreciate the beauty of Vietnam from an entirely new perspective. The train is a moving testament to the country’s resilience and beauty, offering a journey that is as educational as it is luxurious. SJourney thus stands as a bridge between Vietnam’s past and its future, offering a journey that is truly beyond imagination.
