If you’re looking for an unforgettable, but also relaxing holiday, cruise and rail should unquestionably be top of the list for your next trip away! Both travel modes are relaxed, with a focus on unhurried, stress-free holidaying. From the moment you board the cruise liner or train, you’re in the friendly, capable hands of those on board, plus – you also have the benefits of delicious food and wine, expertly curated tours and comfortable accommodation. Your cruise and rail journeys blend seamlessly into each other too, with all transfers expertly taken care of, keeping you in peak relaxation mode throughout – just as holidaying should be! Rail & sail holidays also double your destinations! You’ll experience even more locations in the one trip and from a new perspective, such as cruising past mesmerising coastal landscapes or viewing the iconic Australian outback from the comfort of a luxury train.
CRUISE
Cruising is a no-brainer when it comes to leisurely travel. Unpack once as you embark on a holiday cruising the rugged and unspoiled Australian coastline or the majestic fjords of New Zealand, all the while still offering those local sightseeing highlights and cultural experiences. Your time on board can be as slow paced as you like with most of the bigger cruise liners offering included dining options at your leisure, state-of-the art Spas and rejuvenating treatments and world-class entertainment, not to mention there’s nothing like a healthy dose of fresh sea air for a natural boost.
RAIL
Rail is a perfect slower paced holiday traversing through some of the most remote interior parts of the country on one of our great iconic locomotive journeys aboard The Ghan, Indian Pacific or Great Southern. Step onboard as you are suspended in time in a luxuriously appointed chariot while travelling through the nation’s proud history and falling in love with its awe-inspiring landscape. Depending on the season, you could glide through pockets of snow, and a desert bigger than most European countries. You pass through some of the biggest sheep stations in the world and past tiny pioneer towns. The Off Train Experiences offered are next-level when it comes to unique, once-in-a-lifetime Australian experiences and with first-class cuisine, paired wines and warm hospitality all included, you’ll be better for it.
When it comes to holidaying in Australia there’s a lot to love, but some of our natural wonders, must-see icons and most picturesque landscapes can be both challenging and time-consuming to reach. Not to mention an incredibly efficient way to experience many of Australia’s bucket list items in the one, relaxing holiday. Combining two of the greatest ways to travel this great country and explore new territories is a passion of the expert team at Holidays of Australia and the World who create exclusive holidays to enjoy. Experience it for yourself!
