Indian Pacific journey from Adelaide to Sydney via Broken Hill

Journey Beyond Rail's Indian Pacific carries travelers from Adelaide to Sydney in 3 days and 2 nights, opening with an exclusive evening at Seppeltsfield Estate in the Barossa Valley, including a 'Firing of the Barrel' experience and a food-and-wine pairing, before boarding at Adelaide Parklands Terminal. Day 2 brings arrival in Broken Hill, the Silver City, with a choice of Off Train Experiences such as the Daydream Mine tour or a main-street tour. Day 3 stops in the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains, with a choice between Scenic World's rides and walks or high tea at the historic Hydro Majestic Hotel, before the final leg into Sydney Central runs on a chartered NSW rail service. All meals, fine wines, and beverages are included throughout. This suits couples and food-and-wine travelers drawn to the Seppeltsfield evening, as well as history-minded travelers interested in Broken Hill's mining heritage.
