TWO GREAT TRAINS. ONE MASSIVE JOURNEY
DAY ONE
BRISBANE AND NORTHERN NSW COAST
Watch the sun dip into the horizon as you dine to the sounds of the waves lapping on the shore. The Northern NSW Coast stretches across 90km of incredible sandy beaches and some of the best surfing breaks in the world.
DAY TWO
HUNTER VALLEY AND SURROUNDS
Pass the Semillon and Shiraz! Take the time to meander through the picturesque Hunter Valley vineyards, home to world-renowned brands and family-run boutique cellar doors alike.
DAY THREE
REGIONAL VICTORIA AND THE TWELVE APOSTLES
Embrace the pastoral perfection of regional Victoria and its paddock-to-plate dining ethos. Ascend the dramatic cliff faces along which the famous Great Ocean Road passes and marvel at the Twelve Apostles – a majestic collection of crumbling pillars rising from the Southern Ocean.
DAY FOUR
ARRIVE IN ADELAIDE.
Looking out of your window this morning you'll notice the beautiful green fields and pastoral lands of South Australia.
After breakfast the Great Southern rolls into Adelaide. Leave your luggage at the station and you have a free day to explore Adelaide. Just make sure you are back at the station from 5 - 6pm. Time to board another great train to Indian Pacific to Perth. Sleep comfortably as you head north-west, and awake in the vast expanse and beauty of the Nullarbor Plain.
DAY FIVE
NULLARBOR PLAIN
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast and then marvel at the ever-changing landscape before settling down to a regionally inspired lunch. Dinner under the stars awaits at Rawlinna (seasonal), the remote and beautiful outpost that borders a ‘little’ sheep station of a mere 2.5 million acres (8,000 square kilometres).
DAY SIX
AVON VALLEY AND PERTH
After a restful sleep, you’ll be greeted by daybreak and breakfast in the picturesque rolling hills of the Avon Valley. Then enjoy a delightful lunch as you head to your final destination of Perth, arriving mid-afternoon.
