Great Southern Rail’s Early Bird offer ends on 24 December which means there are only a few days left to secure savings of up to $1320 on The Ghan, Indian Pacific or The Southern Spirit holiday packages! 

The Early Bird savings are valid for travel from 1 April 2012 to 31 December 2012 on a huge range of holiday package options.

Popular holiday packages are all subject to substantial savings, such as the ‘Rock and Rail’ - a five day package that includes travel on The Ghan. Guests will enjoy the wonder and beauty of Australia’s Red Centre as they are treated to the stunning sight of Uluru at sunrise and sunset. Holiday packages can also be tailor made to suit the needs of the traveller.

There is no other experience quite like Australia’s great rail journeys and ‘Australia’s Great Train Holidays 2012’ encompasses everything needed to make early plans for the ultimate Australian rail holiday.

More than simply a mode of transport, a train journey becomes an unforgettable holiday experience as guests witness some of the country’s most breathtaking scenery, make new friends and enjoy fine dining in the comfort of an iconic train.

Travel agents across Australia will have received the pre-released Early Bird version of ‘Australia’s Great Train Holidays’ 2012 last month.
