There ’ s perhaps no better way to travel across this great country and appreciate majestic landscapes than with a leisurely journey in comfort aboard a grand train . Select from the legendary Ghan which takes you deep into Australia ’ s heart ; the mighty Indian Pacific , which travels from the Indian Ocean across to the Pacific Ocean ; the sensational Great Southern for laidback luxury between Brisbane and Adelaide ; and the more contemporary Spirit of Queensland , which travels the state ’ s coastline from Cairns to Brisbane .
THE GHAN , INDIAN PACIFIC & GREAT SOUTHERN TRAINS
From the moment you set foot onboard you can relax , knowing everything has been considered and included in your fare . From world-class food and wine to a range of immersive Off Train Experiences , the hardest decision you will need to make is what to have for lunch and which experience to join .
