Days 11, 12, 13 & 14: Perth
Perth may be the most isolated city of its size on the planet, but the locals are anything but insular. There are plenty of cosmopolitan bars and restaurants, fascinating museums and great beaches to choose from. The Bell Tower boasts a set of bells which were shipped from St Martin-in-the-Fields in London along with fantastic views over the city from the top. The WA Shipwrecks Museum and old prison in Fremantle are well worth a visit as are the beach at Cottesloe. If you have the time, you can take a day trip out to the island paradise of Rottnest Island, where you can hike bikes, go snorkelling or take a cruise down the Swan River. Please talk to your travel consultant about booking some day tours in Perth for you.

Enjoy a modern Australian lunch as the train takes through the picturesque rolling hills of the Avon Valley. After a relaxing afternoon onboard, enjoy a three-course dinner prior to your late evening arrival in the wild west township of Kalgoorlie.

Day 16: Nullarbor Plain
Make sure you wake up early today so that you can watch the sun rise over the spectacular expanse of the Nullarbor Plain. Be captivated by the big blue skies and ancient stillness of the desert landscape, broken only by a mob (the official collective noun) of kangaroos. Waiting ahead is the charm of the once-thriving Nullarbor railway community of Cook, now a ghost town.

Sit back and relax, looking out for koalas in the eucalyptus trees as the train continues its trek across the longest single stretch of railway in the world. Another mouth-watering dinner is followed by relaxed conversation in the lounge before a restful night’s sleep.

Day 17: Adelaide to Broken Hill
After breakfast today, you’ll arrive in the elegant city Adelaide, capital of South Australia. Here, you have the choice of a walking tour (seasonal), a tour of the Central Market, a behind-the-scenes tour of the world-famous Adelaide Oval, or a coach tour of the city sights.
