EXPLORE AUSTRALIA BY TRAIN

Australia by Train

It’s north to south, east to west of ever-changing landscapes, culture and people. While there are many ways to see it, there’s only one way to do it with ease and in comfort. That’s the fabulous fun of rail travel, where everything comes together in a theatre-like performance.

Onboard, the stage is set as your backdrop whistles by. Familiar and friendly service leads the way, with every moment another glorious memory in this spectacular show – the food, the cabins, the Outback Explorer Lounge, the friends you make, the Off Train Experiences, the sunrises and sunsets, did we mention the food?

It’s a journey of truly epic proportions and it’s made easy with Journey Beyond.

Packages

Venture further with curated, powerfully enriching holiday packages that capture the nation in all its guises. Journey Beyond Rail journeys offer much more than just seamless transit, choose from a huge range of expertly-crafted, all-inclusive experiences to create your own rich and rewarding personal journey, and fully immerse yourself in the unique environments our trains travel through.

JOURNEY BEYOND GIFT VOUCHER

Whether your loved one is hard to buy for or you just want to spoil them with an incredible gift, a Journey Beyond Gift Voucher will give them something to cherish.

Redeemable across our rail journeys and valid for three years, our gift vouchers will help your loved one experience something they’ll never forget.

From embracing Australia’s sensational coastal lifestyle and experiences to the thrill of waking up somewhere new each day, the memories made mean the journey continues long after the holiday has ended.

Discovering the outback from the air is simply spellbinding. Flying by helicopter is exhilarating at any time, but when you are soaring above the rugged ranges and open plains of the Red Centre, it is an experience you will never forget. 🚁

The Spirit of Mount Gillen Helicopter flight is available as an optional upgrade experience on board The Ghan from Darwin to Adelaide.
