For three days and two nights, you will discover the Red Centre and the landscapes of this extraordinary land at a relaxing pace, in comfort and style.

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.

The Indian Pacific offers travellers four days and three nights of one of the most impressive and indulgent ways to explore the vastness of Australia. From the Indian Ocean on Australia’s western shores to the Pacific on the east, the two oceans that give the train its name, you will watch the passing backdrop of Australia’s magnificent landscapes. Travel in either direction - from the ‘harbour city’ of Sydney in the east or the lovely Western Australian capital, Perth.

Each new day begins with a fresh panorama. Awake to the essence of Central Australia, as it takes on a character of its own with each passing hour. At the end of each day, relax with a drink as you soak up the sight of a fiery Outback sunset.

Your epic journey will take you through the picturesque and fertile Avon Valley, the dusty goldfields around Kalgoorlie in Western Australia, across the vast, empty and ancient desert of the Nullarbor Plain, to the isolated outpost of Cook. Journey through Adelaide and the magnificent and once-impenetrable Blue Mountains into Sydney. With the Off Train Experiences you will have time to experience the incredible diversity of Australia. Visit the heritage and culture of the ‘Silver City’ Broken Hill and indulge in an abundance of food, wine and history in the elegant South Australian capital of Adelaide.
