Dogu Ekspresi

We decided to take the night train instead of flying. We booked tickets for the Dogu Ekspresi which goes from Kars in eastern Turkey to Ankara. We embarked in Sivas. The train was already one hour late. but no problem. We are on a slow trip either on sea or land. It was going to take 12 hours but it became 13 hours, so we were 2 hours late in Ankara. The train was good with twobed cabins, waterbasin and fridge with water, juice and snacks all included in the cost of 56 lira.
