Rail Holidays
Discovering Australia’s breathtaking wilderness and sheer scale is a spellbinding experience by rail.

Three iconic rail journeys bisect this vast continent; the Indian Pacific traverses the longest straight section of railway in the world between Perth and Sydney, while The Ghan travels from the tropical Top End and through the incredible Red Centre to Adelaide. The Great Southern travels from Adelaide to Brisbane through ever-changing landscapes. There are also other shorter journeys connecting Australian cities such as the Overland from Melbourne to Adelaide which can be a very convenient way to travel.

With more than 50 years’ experience, Trailfinders has developed the skills and expertise needed to put together all the pieces for an exceptional rail holiday. Our expert travel consultants are mines of information, gathered from personal travel experience and are the best people to ask to create your perfect trip.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO VISIT AUSTRALIA?

The northern half of Australia enjoys a warm tropical climate, so the best time to visit is generally between April and November when the weather is dry and not too hot.

For the southern regions of Australia, the months between November and May are ideal, however Sydney can get rather humid and busy in December.

For more information, take a look at our guide to the best time to visit Australia.
