The West Coaster

Book by 31 Mar 12 and SAVE $520^ per couple on this truly a memorable journey aboard The Indian Pacific from Sydney to Perth.

Sit back and watch Australia pass you by from the comfort of your Gold Service cabin. This epic transcontinental journey traverses through the Blue Mountains, Outback and Nullarbor Plain.

With whistle stop tours (additional charge^^) at Broken Hill, Adelaide, Cook and Kalgoorlie, you'll have many opportunities to stretch your legs and see the sights. While on the train, dine in the Queen Adelaide Restaurant car which provides a hearty breakfast, two course lunch and three course dinner.

Although your stay in Perth is short, you'll certainly cover a lot while you're there. Explore Kings Park Botanic Gardens and Cottesloe Beach, before arriving in historic Fremantle.  Enjoy a Swan River Cruise back to Perth relaxing and absorbing Perth's panoramic scenery, including the extravagant waterfront houses of Millionaires Row, while enjoying a wine tasting. The next day is yours to do as you please.

This itinerary is a great start and if you're interested in heading to Margaret River or Broome, we can tailor an itinerary to suit your needs – just ask.
