2021 Indian Pacific & Perth Discovery

3 night all-inclusive rail journey from Perth to Sydney

One of the world’s most remote cities, west-coast Perth is home to a treasure trove of cultural attractions. As well as art museums packed with ethnically diverse work, there’s the fascinating Fremantle Prison, which closed in 1991 and is now a major draw for visitors. Boarding the Indian Pacific, you’ll then settle in for the journey of a lifetime through the heart of Australia. Get acquainted with your carriage surroundings, which combine modern amenities with a timeless elegance, and afford majestic views of the ever-changing landscape.

With two restaurant carriages serving up regionally inspired food and local specialities, you’ll be spoilt for culinary choice. Why not live it up at the lavish Queen Adelaide restaurant with its stylish art deco interior?

As you sit back and relax in your comfortable surroundings, you’ll pass through the barren beauty of the Nullarbor Plain. Flat, arid and largely untouched by modernity, it has remained unchanged since European explorers first set foot in the country.

On the south coast lies Adelaide, hailed as one of the world’s most liveable cities. Once known as the City of Churches, it’s home to 29 public parks and numerous cultural and entertainment venues. North of Adelaide you’ll discover the Barossa Valley, an acclaimed winemaking region with more than a passing resemblance to Tuscany. Residents here have a flair for all things gastronomic, with artisans selling delicious cheeses that complement the wines.

Around the fringes of Sydney you’ll reach the Blue Mountains. Witness the striking Three Sisters rock formation and wander eucalypt forests teeming with wildlife, from koalas to dingos.

As Sydney’s skyline appears on the horizon and you prepare to disembark, you’ll already be reminiscing about a journey that’s furnished you with a lifetime of cherished memories.
