Step aboard the iconic Indian Pacific and traverse the heart of Australia in unparalleled comfort and style. From the bustling skylines of Sydney to the sun-kissed shores of Perth, this journey carries you across vast landscapes where history, adventure, and natural beauty unfold outside your window. Immerse yourself in the timeless romance of the rails as you explore rugged outback towns, sweeping plains, and legendary wine regions — all while savouring fine dining and local wines onboard.

 

Day 1 – Sydney: Departure into the Blue Mountains

Board the Indian Pacific at Sydney’s Central Station mid-afternoon and leave the city skyline behind. Settle into your private cabin and meet fellow travellers in the elegant lounge, where an afternoon drink sets the tone for the journey ahead. As the train winds through the Blue Mountains, enjoy your first regionally-inspired dinner, perfectly paired with fine wines. Cap the evening with a nightcap in the lounge, soaking in the gentle rhythm of the rails. (D)

Day 2 – Broken Hill, McLaren Vale & Adelaide

Wake to a new horizon as you arrive in Broken Hill, the Silver City. Embark on an Off-Train Experience exploring the town’s rich mining heritage, from the striking Miners Memorial to the historic Trades Hall. Return onboard for breakfast and lunch as the Indian Pacific threads through the ancient Flinders Ranges.

In Adelaide, delight in a choice of curated experiences: sample McLaren Vale wines at the Star of Greece, enjoy cheese or gin tastings in Hahndorf, or uncover the city’s highlights from Coopers Brewery to Shiki’s teppanyaki dinner. After a twilight stroll or market tour, rejoin the train to continue your westward journey. (B,L,D)

Day 3 – The Nullarbor Plain & Rawlinna

Today the Australian outback unfolds in all its vastness as you traverse the Nullarbor Plain, home to the world’s longest straight railway track. Pause briefly at Cook, a near-ghost town echoing the railway’s early days. At Rawlinna, marvel at Australia’s largest sheep station and dine under a blanket of stars. From March to October, enjoy a long table dinner; in winter, gather around a bonfire for drinks and canapés under the vast night sky. (B,L,D)

Day 4 – Perth: Arrival and Farewell

The final leg of the journey brings you through the serene undulations of the Avon Valley. Savour one last breakfast onboard before the train rolls into Perth, marking the completion of a 4,352-kilometre epic crossing. Bid farewell to new friends and the crew, carrying memories of a uniquely Australian adventure. (B)
