Indian Pacific – Sydney to Perth
Journey across Australia from east to west on one of the world’s great rail adventures, travelling aboard the iconic Indian Pacific from Sydney to Perth.
For over 50 years, this legendary train has connected the two oceans that give it its name, crossing the vast Nullarbor Plain and traversing the world’s longest stretch of straight railway track. Over four unforgettable days, this all-inclusive journey reveals an ever-changing landscape — from the dramatic Blue Mountains to the outback expanses of South Australia and the endless horizons of the Nullarbor, before arriving in Perth.
Beyond the train, a series of immersive Off Train Experiences bring each destination to life. Explore the historic mining town of Broken Hill, enjoy curated food and wine experiences around Adelaide, and step into the remote outpost of Rawlinna, where the vastness of the outback is truly felt. Blending comfort, scenery and unique cultural encounters, this journey offers an unforgettable way to experience the breadth and beauty of Australia.
