Overview
The Ghan is one of Australia’s great rail journeys, crossing vast outback landscapes and connecting travellers with the scale, silence, and beauty of the continent’s interior. It is a luxury train experience for travellers who want Australia to feel expansive, cinematic, and deeply atmospheric.
Journey options range from shorter Red Centre and Top End segments to the full Ghan Expedition between Darwin and Adelaide. With comfortable onboard service and dramatic route choices, this experience works beautifully as a centrepiece for an Australia itinerary or as a premium extension to a broader South Pacific journey.
Exact inclusions and exclusions vary by train, route, cabin category, and departure date. Please request the full itinerary for confirmed journey details.
