Australia's Great Train Journeys
Imagine waking up to see the sun rising over Australia's Red Centre of watching the majestic Blue Mountains slide past. Imagine
our fabled outback unfolding before you or seeing golden farmlands shimmering in the afternoon light. However you look at it, there's
no other travel experience that compares to seeing this country aboard Australia's Great Train Journeys; The Ghan, Indian Pacific,
The Overland and The Southern Spirit.
More than simply a mode of transport that takes you to your destination, a train journey becomes an unforgettable part of your
Australian holiday experience.
Boarding The Ghan in Adelaide or Darwin, experience one of the most fascinating great train journeys of the world. Marvel at the
spectacular Australian landscapes from fertile countryside surrounding Adelaide to the rusty hues of the Red Centre, onto the
tropical splendour of the Top End.
The Indian Pacific gives you two oceans on one of the world longest and greatest train journey. But most of your cruising will be
across the vast continent of Australia. From the spectacular Blue Mountains to the treeless plains of The Nullarbor desert, where
the train travels the world's longest straight stretch of railway track (478 kilometres), see unique landscapes unfold
and spot a fascinating array of wildlife from the comfort of the lounge, seat or your own private cabin.
There's no more relaxing way to enjoy the trip between Melbourne and Adelaide than on the newly refurbished Overland. The Overland
provides a comfortable, relaxing way to travel between the cities or to ease into a great holiday in Melbourne, Adelaide or their
surrounding regions.
The Southern Spirit, a recent addition to the Great Southern Rail suite of products is for those who expect more, want to see more,
experience more. It is for those who view travel as they view life, not only for the destinations, but for the journey that can
be savoured along the way. New and unique in Australia, these outback rail packages allows one to see and experience more of the
most breathtaking sights Australia has to offer.
