Set off on one of the world's greatest rail journeys: an epic transcontinental crossing between the Pacific and Indian oceans. Call 1300 414 198 to book your cross-country adventure.
The Indian Pacific has been making its epic transcontinental crossing between the two oceans that lend it its name for more than half a century. Departing Sydney, this spectacular journey traverses mountain ranges, passing through arid landscapes and goldfields, rocky valleys and subtropical savannahs before arriving into Perth. There’s no better way to experience the spectacular interior landscape of Australia.
Day 1- Sydney
Departing Sydney's Central Station, get acquainted with your cabin and fellow travellers. Leaving city skylines and the fast-paced urban lifestyle behind, the Indian Pacific winds through the Blue Mountains with spectacular views to the left and right. Relax in your cabin or socialise in the lounge with a cup of coffee or afternoon tipple on request. Tonight, you will enjoy your first meal on board - a regionally inspired dinner paired with fine wine and beverages. After dinner, consider a nightcap in the lounge before you retire to your cabin.
Day 2 - Broken Hill, Barossa Valley and Adelaide surrounds
After breakfast, prepare for your first Off Train Experience in Broken Hill, the Silver City. Explore mining heritage through visiting the Broken Hill Traders Hall and the striking Miners Memorial that stands over the town or for a different take on Broken Hill, go on a tour of the main drag with fabulous local Drag Queen sensation, Stelita Buffet.
Art aficionados may opt to visit the captivating Living Desert Sculpture site or take in the exhibitions of the oldest regional art gallery in New South Wales. Alternatively, ignite a sense of nostalgia at Bells Milk Bar, an icon of Broken Hill, sipping on malted milk while a performance of Cindy and Johnny takes you back to the 50's.
Arriving in Adelaide in the late afternoon, you'll have the opportunity for an Off Train Experience, exploring the South Australian Museum or indulging in an epicurean experience. Visit the Barossa Valley or McLaren Vale to sample fine South Australian wines before an indulgent meal. Alternatively, you may wish to try a cheese or gin tasting in the charming Adelaide Hills village of Hahndorf before feasting at Haus, Haus - a German restaurant showcasing the best in local product. Alternatively, visit Adelaide Central Markets for a tour and exclusive sit-down dinner.
After dinner, return to the train to continue your journey west.
Day 3 - Nullarbor Plain
Today is all about those amazing outback views as you cross this famous stretch of the Australian interior, the Nullarbor Plain, on the longest stretch of straight railway track in the world. En route, the Indian Pacific calls in to Cook, once-bustling, now almost-ghost town that was originally built as a support town for the railway.
Travelling further west, the next stop is at Rawlinna on the fringe of Australia's largest sheep station for a signature dinner under a thousand stars (seasonal).
Day 4 - Perth
Admire the delightful undulations of the Avon Valley and enjoy a final breakfast on board as the final stage of your transcontinental crossing unfolds. On arrival in Perth, take the opportunity to say goodbye to fellow travellers and the crew. You've just crossed 4,352 kilometres together on the Indian Pacific.
