Rail journey
The Ghan.
Through the heart of Australia.
Settle in and watch the centre of the country unfold from your window, between Adelaide and Darwin.
The journey
The Ghan runs between Adelaide and Darwin through the Red Centre, and can be travelled in either direction, all the while connecting to the incredible scenery of the Red Centre. There are two journeys on the Ghan. Travelling northbound, a three day adventure from Adelaide calling in to Marla, Alice Springs and Katherine. Southbound, the Ghan departs Darwin on a four day journey, stopping at Katherine, Coober Pedy and a unique dinner under the stars at Telegraph Station in Alice Springs.
How it fits around your visit
If you are visiting friends or family in Adelaide, you can board The Ghan there and finish your holiday in Darwin, flying home from the Top End.
Visiting Melbourne? A short flight to Adelaide connects you to the train. Nancy can arrange a stay in Adelaide before boarding, and the flights home from wherever your holiday finishes.
Good to know
Nancy can match the rail departure, cabin choice and onward flights to your visit, and add time in Adelaide or Darwin at either end if you wish.
Can you picture yourself on board?
