Your Itinerary

From the white curves of the Opera House to surfers dotted along the waves on Bondi Beach, Sydney is a heady mix of culture and nature. Explore beautiful beaches and feel the warm sand between your toes, discover all 30 hectares at the Royal Botanic Gardens, or simply wander through The Rocks district where you can buy delicious street food while buskers strum their guitars.

Your transcontinental adventure begins in Sydney where you’ll board the majestic Indian Pacific. Prepare for a true journey of contrasts, from the heights of the majestic Blue Mountains to the barren expanse of the Nullarbor Plain and from cities of 4 million to ghost towns of just four. As you roll through ever-changing scenery, explore the comforts of life onboard or settle into your comfortable cabin. As evening falls, savour a regionally inspired dinner paired with all-inclusive fine wines and beverages before escaping to the lounge for a night cap.

This morning you’ll arrive in the ‘Silver City’ of Broken Hill, one of Australia’s legendary Outback bases. Here you’ll enjoy morning off train excursions to discover the mining history and artistic culture of this unique town. Lunch is served back on board as you glide into the southern tip of the ancient Flinders Ranges. Arriving in the city of Adelaide in the afternoon, you’ll have the choice of a city tour or a trip to the spectacular Adelaide Hills featuring the culinary delights of Hahndorf.

You’ll awake to the seemingly endless expanse of the sweeping Nullarbor Plain. Breakfast is served as you travel along the longest stretch of straight railway track in the world. Following a leisurely breakfast, you’ll step off the train for a short stop in Cook. Once a bustling railway community, now effectively a ghost town, Cook gives new meaning to the expression “middle of nowhere”. Take some time to reflect on the changing landscapes in your journey and to enjoy the hospitality of the Outback Explorer Lounge as you arrive on the edge of Western Australia.

The Avon Valley beckons you this morning – the mild skies and cool green vales of this picturesque part of the world will truly delight. Arrive at the cosmopolitan western capital of Perth after lunch, having finished an epic Australian journey end-to-end. It’s a city that combines sophisticated attractions and cultural events with beautiful beaches with an easy-going attitude to create one of Australia’s most liveable cities. A stone’s throw away are numerous nature and national parks, where forests are carpeted in wildflowers, roped in walking and cycling trails, and home to various wildlife.

Relax and enjoy the iconic skyline and beautiful, picturesque landscape as you escape the city and embark on a leisurely cruise to the award-winning Sandalford Estate in the upper regions of the Swan Valley. Savour a series of complimentary treats including a guided premium wine tasting and cheese board selection on your journey upstream. You'll be treated to a two-course lunch at this prestigious winery, following an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the winery and a one-of-a-kind wine tasting. All of this is capped off with live entertainment and tantalizing desserts on your cruise back to the city.

There are few cities that parallel Perth’s wonderful mix of lush nature and urban living. With a cosmopolitan air and vivacious nightlife, there’s also plenty of opportunities to steal a quiet moment to enjoy the sunshine. Wander through the Fremantle Markets – a Victorian marketplace selling food and local crafts – or simply take a ferry out to Penguin Island where you could see a colony of Little penguins, the smallest penguins in the world, zipping through the crystal water.

Today you’ll enjoy a taste of Perth and Fremantle during a half day explorer tour. Beginning in Perth, take in all the major attractions of the revitalised Perth CBD, including the Western Australia Cricket Ground and Optus Stadium. From here, you’ll head to Kings Park Botanical Gardens, where you could admire the spectacular wildflowers or take in the stunning views over the city skyline. In historic Fremantle, embrace the impressive facades of this heritage listed city and enjoy some time to explore before returning to Perth.

One fantastic Island, so many unique and diverse experiences! Located just 19km off the mainland, Rottnest Island offers endless possibilities. Explore the beauty and tranquillity of Rottnest as you sit back and relax in the comfort of an air-conditioned coach. This tour around the island takes you out to some of Rottnest’s most spectacular locations including the Wadjemup Lighthouse and the rugged West End. The tour will provide you with an insight into Rottnest’s cultural and historical heritage and diverse wildlife, including the famous quokkas. You will also have a chance to step off the coach and enjoy a stroll along the boardwalk at the majestic look-out point at West End.

Your epic adventure complete, today you’ll head to the airport for your flight back home.
Welcome aboard the Indian Pacific
Experience one of the few truly transcontinental rail journeys in the world with a voyage on board the Indian Pacific service, which travels across the breadth of southern Australia in incomparable style. Part of Journey Beyond Rail Expeditions, the Indian Pacific speeds from coast to coast on a storied journey that follows in the footsteps of bush pioneers, gold rush greed, and famous adventurers who forged to discover the barren natural beauty of Australia’s famously unforgiving outback.
Know the Facts
The dream of a transcontinental rail service began in the 1890s, but it was not until 1969 that an uninterrupted rail track linked the Indian Ocean in the west to the Pacific Ocean in the east. The train’s first full transcontinental journey took place on 23 February 1970, when more than 10,000 people welcome the historic train to the city of Perth. Today, the 774-metre-long train travels the 4,350 kilometres between Sydney and Perth in approximately 65 hours. It is instantly recognisable by its bold wedge-tailed eagle emblem.
