From north to south, from east to west, Australia is rich in ever-changing landscapes, culture, and people. Although it can be explored in many ways, there is only one way to do it easily and comfortably. That is the fantastic experience of traveling by train, where everything comes together in a spectacle reminiscent of a theatre performance.
Thanks to the friendly onboard staff, every moment becomes an unforgettable experience during this travel performance – the food, the cabins, the Outback Explorer Lounge, the friends you meet, the off-train experiences, the sunrises and sunsets…
It is a journey full of epic impressions.
The most spectacular rail journeys in Australia:
- The Ghan
- Indian Pacific
- Great Southern
- The Overland
The Ghan
Considered one of the greatest railway journeys in the world, The Ghan is much more than just a long train trip. Above all, it offers access to parts of Australia that are difficult to reach when choosing other forms of travel – the perfect balance between comfort and adventure, culminating in an experience that will move you in every sense of the word.
In 2019, The Ghan celebrated the 90th anniversary of its journeys across the Outback — the vast and sparsely populated desert regions of Australia. Much has changed since 1929, and today The Ghan offers far more than simply transit between Adelaide and Darwin and back.
On board you will find exquisite cuisine, elegant private cabins, attentive service, and the enjoyable company of fellow travelers. And when the train stops, the real adventures begin.
Choose from a range of included Off Train Experiences to enjoy a unique adventure during your journey across Australia.
The Indian Pacific
Choose a journey aboard the iconic Indian Pacific, which will take you from Perth to Adelaide and Sydney in comfort and style. With incredible transcontinental crossings between the Indian and Pacific Oceans, step aboard the train and enjoy an all-inclusive holiday journey you will never forget.
The logo of Indian Pacific, featuring an eagle, symbolizes the vast spaces the train crosses as it travels through mountain ranges, deserts, goldfields, rocky valleys, and subtropical savannas.
Named after the two oceans the train encounters during its journey, the Indian Pacific runs between Perth, Adelaide, and Sydney on a spectacular route stretching 4,352 km.
There is no better way to experience the unique landscapes of Australia than a romantic train journey. Choose a trip from the Indian Ocean to the Pacific and begin your adventure.
