Cross Australia by Train on The Ghan

The Ghan is Australia’s oldest named train and one of the world’s most prestigious rail experiences.

Originally, it was dubbed the Afghan Express in honour of the rugged Afghan Cameleers who blazed a trail through the outback 150 years ago, making deliveries by camelback!

Carving the Antipodean continent in two, The Ghan links South Australia’s Adelaide to the Northern Territory’s wild capital of Darwin … a silver thread through the country’s vast golden heart.

Enjoy an unforgettable level of luxury on board – from private cabins to world-class food and wine.

With a Gold or Platinum ticket, your cross-continent expedition includes memorable off-train experiences – including a sunrise breakfast in the outback town of Marla;  Alice Springs excursions; and a Katherine Gorge river cruise.

The Ghan is one adventure in a host of luxury rail experiences showcased in a spectacular new international travel series.

Imagine Iconic Rail Journeys airs on 7TWO from the 17th March at 6pm.
