Journey by rail
from Journeys July 2020
We know the time will come around again for us to scratch that travel itch. And when we get the green light, Journey Beyond Rail Expeditions will be ready.
Head west with our ‘Rottnest Wonder’ package, travelling from Perth to Sydney aboard the Indian Pacific.
Explore Perth including Rottnest Island, just a 30-minute boat ride from Fremantle. With two days and one night on the island, you’ll meander along the coast, discover secluded beaches and feast on fresh seafood followed by a famous jam doughnut. There’s even time for a quokka selfie.
Your three nights in Perth will allow you to explore this vibrant city. Make sure you head to Kings Park for sunset over the Swan River.
Now you’re in holiday mode, it’s time to board the Indian Pacific.
Settle into ‘train life’ as you roam through the Avon Valley. After a two-course lunch, you can retire to the Outback Explorer Lounge to read or chat with fellow passengers – with the bar never more than a few metres away. Later that night, you’ll disembark in Kalgoorlie – home to The Super
James Vodicka
Quokka on Rottnest Island. Pit, Australia’s largest open pit goldmine. You’ll learn about Western Australia’s mining history before returning to the train for a night cap and then to your cabin.
Day two will see you waking up on the Nullarbor Plain and stepping off at Rawlinna, an impressive cattle station. Later that day, you’ll visit Cook, a once bustling railway town, now home to a population of four.
As you travel across the country, you’ll move into the pastoral lands of South Australia, disembarking in Adelaide for your choice of Off Train Excursion. Heading further east, you’ll visit Broken Hill before winding through the majestic Blue Mountains.
Arriving at Sydney Central Station, your 4352km journey has come to an end, leaving you with tales to share and memories to last a lifetime.
