If you’ve ever dreamed of exploring the heart of Australia in luxury and comfort, The Ghan is the perfect journey. Traversing nearly 3,000 kilometers between Adelaide in the south and Darwin in the north, this iconic train voyage gives you a front-row seat to the ever-changing landscapes and natural wonders of Australia. Over three to four days, The Ghan transports you through the rugged beauty of the Red Centre, the cultural richness of Alice Springs, and the tropical marvels of the Northern Territory's Top End.
Why Choose The Ghan?
The Ghan is more than a train ride; it’s a carefully curated experience designed to immerse you in Australia’s extraordinary landscapes. Your journey starts with a warm welcome and a glass of bubbly, setting the stage for an unforgettable adventure. Along the way, you’ll have access to exclusive off-train excursions that give you a closer look at the unique environments and histories of places like Alice Springs and Katherine. Imagine wandering through the grandeur of the Outback and standing in awe of these ancient lands—all without the hassle of navigating.
The Onboard Experience
Luxury and comfort define the onboard experience on The Ghan. With Platinum Cabins, you can enjoy spacious cabins with en-suite facilities, cozy beds, and even room service! Dining on board is a highlight in itself, with gourmet meals prepared from local Australian ingredients and complemented by fine wines. The dining cars are as much about the culinary experience as they are about the social one—share stories and make memories with fellow travellers while savoring dishes inspired by the land around you.
Off-Train Adventures
The journey is filled with enriching excursions that let you step off the train and into Australia’s wilderness and heritage sites. Imagine exploring the lush landscapes of Katherine Gorge or discovering the vibrant history of Alice Springs. These off-train experiences offer insight into Australia’s unique culture, geology, and wildlife and add a whole new dimension to your journey.
A Piece of History
The Ghan itself carries an incredible legacy, named after the Afghan cameleers who once helped open up Australia’s interior in the 19th century. Operating since 1929, it has since evolved into a luxury travel experience that honors Australia’s pioneering spirit. It’s a journey that not only reveals the vast beauty of Australia but also connects travellers to a storied past, blending tradition with modern comfort.
An Opportunity Not to Miss
The Ghan is in high demand, and waitlists for this iconic journey often stretch over two years. However, a unique opportunity has opened up for October 2025! Due to recent group cancellations, a limited number of Platinum Cabins have become available for this highly sought-after experience. If you’ve been waiting to cross The Ghan off your bucket list, this could be your chance to embark on a journey like no other.
