Rail travel in Australia is an ideal way to cover this vast continent; 3-night journeys are an experience in themselves, or the shorter routes provide a fast and efficient way to get around.

Australia has spectacular scenery and its rail infrastructure ensures you can capture the most exciting of views. The Legendary Ghan travels between the north and south following the historic route of the camel trains; the Indian Pacific travelling between east and west is one of the world’s longest train journeys; the Overland again follows the historic route between Melbourne and Adelaide once done on horseback; and the Queensland coastline is covered by The Sunlander ideal for longer journeys between Cairns and Brisbane and the modern Tilt Train more convenient for shorter hops up or down the coast.
