Be a part of sharing special places and shaping lasting memories with Australia’s leading experiential tourism business

About Us

Our Rail Division, previously known as Great Southern Rail (“GSR”) operates Australia’s iconic rail journeys, The Ghan, Indian Pacific, The Overland and Great Southern.

There are very few global journeys considered national treasures, but our trains are, without question, iconic Australian experiences. From the moment our guests (and potentially you) step aboard these legendary trains, you can feel it – a spirit of adventure and a sense of something very special about to unfold.

About Journey Beyond

Australia’s leading experiential tourism group, Journey Beyond, is privileged to operate 14 brands spanning the country, connecting guests to the land, and to each other. Headquartered in Adelaide, Journey Beyond’s impressive tourism brands include iconic trains The Ghan, Indian Pacific, Great Southern and The Overland; premium small-group outback operator Outback Spirit; eco-luxe lodge Sal Salis Ningaloo Reef; aquatic adventures Cruise Whitsundays, Rottnest Express, Horizontal Falls Seaplane Adventures, Darwin Harbour Cruises and Journey Beyond Cruise Sydney; and our tallest members, Melbourne Skydeck and Eureka 89.
