Travel across Australia from coast to coast on one of the world’s great rail adventures.
For over 50 years, the iconic Indian Pacific has crossed the vast Nullarbor Plain, traversing the world’s longest stretch of straight railway track — a remarkable feat that adds to the legend of this transcontinental journey. Over five unforgettable days, this all-inclusive experience reveals a tapestry of ever-changing landscapes, from the vibrant city of Perth to the expansive outback, through rolling countryside and dramatic escarpments in New South Wales, before arriving in Sydney. Along the way, savour regionally inspired cuisine, premium wines and warm hospitality as the landscapes of Australia unfold beyond your window.
Beyond the train, a series of immersive Off Train Experiences bring each destination to life. Discover Kalgoorlie’s rich gold rush heritage, visit the remote outpost of Cook under a canopy of stars, indulge in a signature dining experience in the Barossa Valley, and explore the character-filled streets of Broken Hill before arriving in the breathtaking Blue Mountains. Blending comfort, scenery and unique cultural encounters, this journey offers an unforgettable way to experience the heart of Australia.

Travel further when you're not travelling alone
Our Social Getaways are small-group holidays designed especially for over-60s Australians who want the freedom of a great trip without the work of planning every detail. A Travel at 60 host travels with the group, the operator handles the logistics, and you get to focus on the bit that matters — the people, the places, and the stories you'll bring home.
Open to solo travellers too. Many of our travellers book on their own and find their feet quickly in a friendly group of like-minded Australians. Reduced single-supplement options are available on most departures — ask one of our consultants and we'll talk you through what's offered on this trip.
- A friendly Travel at 60 host — an Australian face on the ground, looking out for the group from day one.
- Curated local guides & boutique suppliers — the same operators we'd book for our own families.
- Real itineraries, not whirlwind tours — comfortable transfers, breathing room, and the “off the beaten track” stops the big bus tours skip.
Want to talk it through? Call 1300 414 198 7 days a week, Queensland time, and one of our consultants will walk you through it.
