The Southern Spirit: Welcome


About The Southern Spirit

The Southern Spirit is not for everyone. It is for those that expect more. Those who view travel as they view life, not as a destination, but as a journey to be savoured. On board you’ll enjoy unparalleled luxury and unmatched personal attention with 24-hour cabin service. While trips ‘ashore’ offer you the chance to indulge yourself at exclusive five-star hotels or take off on excursions as adventurous or as lavish as you choose to make them.

No, The Southern Spirit is not for everyone. It’s for the lucky few who get on board.

The Southern Spirit is a new luxurious train service that will operate each summer season from November 2008 on a variety of outback Australian train routes. The experience is something new and quite unique in Australia; epic transcontinental rail cruising combined with a suite of deluxe excursions and once-in-a-lifetime events along the way.
