Rail Journeys in Australia

The Indian Pacific

In a country of such epic proportions, travelling by train is a great option for covering vast distances whilst still enjoying the scenic delights. Contact our team to find out how you can incorporate the following multi-day train journeys into your tailor made itinerary.

The Ghan: Adelaide-Darwin
The Ghan travels 2,979 kilometres from Adelaide to Darwin on a transcontinental journey through the Red Centre of Australia. Enjoy two nights aboard this legendary train, taking in spectacular landscapes from the comfort of your cabin. The Ghan caters to all budgets from economical Red Service cabins, standard Gold Service with upper and lower twin berths, and the new deluxe Platinum Service cabins featuring double beds, spacious ensuite and 24 hour room service.

Indian Pacific: Sydney-Perth
Crossing a continent from ocean to ocean, the Indian Pacific is one of the world's longest and greatest train journeys. Travelling between Perth and Sydney twice weekly, the Indian Pacific crosses the treeless plains of The Nullarbor, along the world's longest straight stretch of railway track. Enjoy unique landscapes and spot a fascinating array of wildlife from the lounge or your cabin. Red Service, Gold Service and Platinum Service cabins are available.

The Sunlander: Brisbane-Cairns
The Sunlander is one of Australia's most endearing rail journeys, with comfort, flexibility and a great social atmosphere. Running between laid-back Cairns and Queensland's tropical capital Brisbane, this journey offers the basic Sunlander Class, and the more luxurious Queenslander Class with twin-berth accommodation and fine dining.

Tilt Train: Brisbane-Cairns
Travelling between Cairns and Brisbane three times a week, the Tilt Train offers a fast, efficient and scenic journey. It’s also a great way to access gateways to the tropical islands of the Great Barrier Reef, including Fraser Island and the Whitsundays. With economy or business class seating, you can sit back and enjoy the scenery.
