This morning, board the Indian Pacific and before long, you’ll be heading through the delightful Avon Valley. Take time out and relax into the rhythm of this iconic train and its creature comforts. Enjoy a pre-dinner drink in the Outback Explorer Lounge with fellow travellers in anticipation of your late-night arrival into the gold-mining township of Kalgoorlie, where you’ll participate in your first Off Train Experience.
OVERNIGHT: 3 nights Indian Pacific (L, D)
Wake to a spectacular Nullarbor morning. Relax throughout the day, taking in the outback vistas before visiting the extraordinary and slightly eerie ghost town of Cook, home to a thriving population of four. (B, L, D)
As the landscape changes in the morning and rich ochre sands make way for forests and farmlands, you will arrive into Adelaide, where a range of Off Train Experiences are on offer. You can take a behind-the-scenes tour of Adelaide Oval or see the highlights of the city on foot or by coach. After taking in some of the highlights of the South Australian capital, return to the Indian Pacific to continue your journey toward Sydney. (B, L, D)
Wake this morning to take in the full spectacle of the Blue Mountains on Sydney’s doorstep. After your arrival into Katoomba, select from numerous mountain experiences to explore the World-Heritage listed area. See the majestic Three Sisters at Echo Point and take in the views at Jamison Valley before the culmination of your epic transcontinental crossing. Pulling into Sydney Central Station, you will be transferred to your hotel to check in and make the most of this beautiful harbourside city. (B,L)
OVERNIGHT: 3 nights Hilton Sydney
Experience one of the world’s most iconic cities on an all-inclusive 2.5-hour lunch cruise on our exclusive 78ft luxury vessel. Enjoy a premium two-course menu featuring regionally sourced ingredients. Departing Darling Harbour, we cruise towards Sydney Harbour Bridge and pass the iconic Sydney cityscape and Sydney Opera House. We believe lunch should be a long, lavish affair, so we serve generous al la carte meals inspired by local and regional produce, paired with a selection of beers, wines from some of the finest wine-producing regions in NSW, soft drinks and tea or coffee. (B,L)
Today is yours to explore the Harbour City from the CBD to Chinatown, Manly to Newtown, or Barangaroo to Darling Harbour. There are plenty of diverse sights, flavours and experiences to enjoy, including museums, galleries, aquariums, gardens and more. (B)
The Rocks Aboriginal Dreaming Tour (Illi Langi) – from $59 per person.
This leisurely walkabout around The Rocks uncovers the history of the Aboriginal people’s saltwater heritage within Sydney Harbour, their land and water use, and their spiritual connection to the adjoining waterways and foreshores.
Today is your last chance to explore Sydney before your journey home. (B)
