Indian Pacific Rail 2026 - Adelaide to Sydney

Celebrate the start of your journey with an exclusive evening in the world-renowned, Barossa Valley. You’ll spend the evening at Seppeltsfield Estate, delighting in a special dining experience in the vintage cellar, exclusive to Indian Pacific guests.

A ‘Firing of the Barrel’ display is part of the evening, as well as a food and wine pairing curated by Executive Chef Owen Andrews, highlighting regional produce and traditional methods that reflect the story of the Barossa.

After dinner, you’ll be welcomed aboard the Indian Pacific where you will settle into your cabin, or head to the lounge for a night-cap as you begin your journey towards Sydney

Crossing another border during the night, you’ll wake up in Broken Hill, New South Wales. Enjoy a hearty breakfast, ready for the day’s activities in the Silver City.

Discover what makes Broken Hill special with a visit to the Miners’ Memorial and the Sulphide Street Railway and Historical Museum, offering fascinating insights into the town’s heritage. Alternatively, go underground with a tour of the historic Daydream Mine for a glimpse into the life of early miners.

For art enthusiasts, unleash your creativity at the Pro Hart Gallery with a ‘paint and sip’ activity, crafting your own masterpiece in Pro’s original studio. Food lovers can experience the outback at the Living Desert State Park with Chef Lee Cecchin, discovering native plants, sampling spices, and crafting a mini pavlova in a fun cook-off at The Old Salt Bush restaurant. For a different perspective, join Shelita Buffet, Queen of the Outback, for a lively tour along the main drag.

Returning to the train for lunch, admire the scenery as the Indian Pacific travels through regional New South Wales. Tonight, dinner is served on board as you make the most of your final night exploring Australia by train

The Blue Mountains is known for its soaring sandstone ridges wrapped in native flora. This World Heritage-listed area marks your final stop before arriving in Sydney. Say goodbye to the Indian Pacific after breakfast, to travel deep into the mountains for this Off Train Experience.

Scenic World includes four phenomenal mountain experiences, from the Scenic Skyway, which takes you over ancient ravines, with 360-degree vistas to the Scenic Cableway that glides over the forest to the valley floor and the Scenic Railway, the steepest passenger railway in the world. Alternatively, stretch your legs on a guided walk with spectacular views, or indulge in a high-tea at The Hydro Majestic Hotel taking in the panoramic views of the Blue Mountains.

Complete your journey on our chartered New South Wales rail service (fully hosted by your Indian Pacific crew) into Sydney Central Station. Alternatively, if you prefer to arrive in Sydney earlier, stay on board the Indian Pacific to travel directly to Sydney Central Station, arriving before lunch
