Experience the luxury, experience the adventure.
There truly is something special about rail travel. It has its own unique grandeur and an unhurried luxury that perfectly complements experiencing the grand scale of Australia. From the breathtaking and ever changing scenery leisurely rolling by your window through to the new friends you'll make en route, rail travel truly has no equal.
In January 2011, a new opportunity to immerse yourself in the timeless wonders of rail travel and this amazing continent presents itself as a new route is added to the family of great train journeys offered by Great Southern Rail.
Follow the path less travelled in Platinum or Gold Service as The Southern Spirit explores the sights and delights of Australia's southeast.
Join The Southern Spirit in Adelaide, Australia's wine capital and gateway to the Outback or the sophisticated southern city of Melbourne for a leisurely journey of up to 5 nights and 6 days to the final destination in sub-tropical Brisbane. Naturally if you'd prefer, the return route from, Brisbane to Melbourne or Adelaide is equally impressive.
With just six journeys in total, places onboard this exclusive rail adventure will be strictly limited and highly sought after. To avoid disappointment, be sure you are among the first to book and secure your place on the latest Australian Great Train Journey.
The journey like no other.
Enjoy a journey of discovery as The Southern Spirit wends its way through the rural heartlands of four states, travelling through hills and mountain ranges, across green valleys, past country towns, wide open plains and fertile farmlands.
Including Whistle Stop Tours at selected locations en route, The Southern Spirit highlights the essence of Australia's southeast including The Grampians National Park, Ned Kelly Country, and the majestic Murray River. Visit the Western Plains then cross the awe inspiring Blue Mountains and descend to the Hunter Valley for an extended tour. Enjoy a taste of the pristine mid-north coast of New South Wales, with visits to Port Macquarie and Byron Bay
The Southern Spirit's timetable makes the most of the daylight hours to maximise your enjoyment of the inspiring views and rich natural tapestry of Australia's eastern seaboard.
