Set yourself to cruise mode It’s certainly no accident that the universal word for that blissful, stress-free, no worries, chilled out, everything’s easy state-of-mind is “cruisy”. It’s also the perfect word to describe a fantastic and increasingly popular way to travel. Because cruising embodies all of the above plus more. When you travel with Holidays of Australia and the World you won’t need to lift a finger. Everything is taken care of, starting with you. And once onboard, you simply assume a beautiful state of relaxation where your every wish and whim are attended to, as you float along on your care-free sailing adventure. You can delve into a jam-packed onboard entertainment and activity schedule, or just sit with a drink by the pool and people watch. There are so many fabulous bars and restaurants to discover, much pampering to be had at the Spa and world-class entertainment daily for you to revel in, that you may not want to disembark. But when your cruise ship does dock in port you can continue exploring by immersing yourself in the area’s history, people and culture. These tours are curated exclusively by the cruise line to provide guests with unique experiences, even VIP entry, that’s not offered to the general public. There are many itineraries to choose from, so it’s easy to find one to suit your interests whether that’s in Australia or overseas. We’ve put together cruise holidays that also feature world-famous rail journeys like The Ghan and Indian Pacific to create our classic Australia Cruise & Rail holidays. On our holidays, you can explore iconic Australian destinations like the Red Centre, Kakadu National Park, Kangaroo Island and Margaret River just to name a few, but don’t forget our international holiday packages. Through Holidays of Australia and the World, you can literally cruise from one travel mode to the next, seamlessly and stress-free. For some holiday packages, you don’t even need to use an airport. Now that’s cruisy! A cruise holiday has everything going for it. So, go for it and get ready to set yourself to cruise mode.

The Ghan & The Ghan Expedition A once in a lifetime journey through the heart of Australia On travel wish lists two evocative words routinely appear: The Ghan. The world famous rail journey requires no further explanation, the two words instantly induce yearnings of traversing the remote Red Centre of Australia, gliding through deserts and ancient outback landscapes from exotic tropical Darwin to elegant, Mediterranean-style Adelaide. This is a truly immersive journey. Whether you begin in Adelaide or Darwin, your trip will take in the sweeping Adelaide Plains and the majestic Flinders Ranges of South Australia, and the ochre heart of the Red Centre. With a stop in the outback town of Alice Springs, there’s time to explore this oasis of history, indigenous culture and natural beauty. In the Top End, you’ll take a cruise to witness the splendour of Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge and discover the Northern Territory’s vibrant tropical capital, Darwin. Forget settling in for hours of window gazing reverie, The Ghan will have you brushing red dirt from your shoes, gazing at spectacular gorges and gaping at incredible Aboriginal rock art. You will become enveloped in the outback, returning to the train with a souvenir waft of campfire smoke on your clothes and deeply etched memories in your heart. No matter how you choose to travel on The Ghan, rest assured, it’s all class. And no matter what level of service your travel budget permits, you’ll never forget the brilliant service, warm hospitality and the experience of travelling on one of the world’s most iconic transcontinental journeys.

The Ghan

Indian Pacific A world famous rail journey from coast to coast The famous 4,352 kilometre Indian Pacific journey is one of a thousand contrasts, traversing landscapes as diverse as the towering majesty of the Blue Mountains, travelling the longest stretch of straight railway track in the world, crossing the barren expanse of the Nullarbor Plain and passing by every gold mine, ghost town and grapevine in between. Outside your wide-screen picture window, the landscape shifts over and over, revealing hidden secrets, from long abandoned homesteads to the striking wildflowers of Western Australia. Quite simply, the Indian Pacific journey defines Australia. Traversing this great continent on the Indian Pacific, you’ll pass through the most spectacular terrains, famous cities, historic towns and well-known landmarks. But when the train stops, your off-the-beaten track adventure begins, and you gain new insights into the people, culture and geographical wonders that shape Australia coast to coast. And the best news is, they’re included in the fare for Platinum and Gold Service guests.

Say G'Day to Great Southern Australia’s Newest Rail Journey A new train is set to launch onto Australian tracks late 2019, linking Adelaide and Brisbane for 16 departures in its much-anticipated inaugural season. After its launch it already has journeys booked out, demonstrating the eagerness of Australian travellers to experience this exciting new rail journey. The new Great Southern train will explore the incredible landscapes and experiences across Australia’s diverse south-eastern corner with the option of a three-day northbound itinerary or a four-day southbound itinerary. It will be the newest addition to the internationally-regarded suite of great Australian rail journeys, which includes The Ghan (Adelaide – Darwin) and Indian Pacific (Sydney – Perth). Great Southern’s maiden travel season will extend from 6 December 2019 through to 27 January 2020 giving its passionate fans plenty of chances to get on-board this new journey. Onboard accommodation will include the option of Gold Single and Gold Twin cabins, as well as the more exclusive Platinum cabins. As travellers have come to expect from The Ghan and Indian Pacific, exceptional food and wine and world-class hospitality will be at the heart of the Great Southern experience, along with many opportunities to explore beyond the tracks.
