Crossing Australia from Sydney to Perth aboard the Indian Pacific is one of the world’s great rail journeys and your experience doesn’t have to end when you arrive. Enjoy three nights’ accommodation in the Western Australian Capital, Perth, and extend your exploration with a day on fabulous Rottnest Island.

Departing Sydney’s Central Station mid-afternoon, leave city skylines and the fast-paced urban lifestyle behind. Get acquainted with your cabin and fellow travellers as the Indian Pacific heads west winding through the Blue Mountains. Relax in your cabin or socialise in the lounge, enjoying an afternoon tipple on request. Tonight, you will enjoy your first meal on board – a regionally inspired dinner paired with fine wine and beverages. After dinner, consider a nightcap in the lounge before you retire to your cabin.
