As one of the great train journeys of the world, The Ghan takes you through the remote landscapes and astonishingly varied flora and fauna from the Outback to the Top End. It will both inspire and amaze you as you traverse this untamed land aboard this magnificent train. Relive the era of elegant train travel through the heart of Australia on the journey of a lifetime.

You can start or complete your APT holiday with a majestic rail journey aboard The Ghan. Experience the romance and excitement of a truly great train journey that was 70 years in the making.
