Itinerary

Make your own way to Dock 3, Stokes Hill Wharf this afternoon in time for boarding your Charles Darwin Sunset Dinner Cruise.

Listen to expert commentary whilst enjoying a delicious Territory style dinner with fresh seafood and local produce. Dinner will be served in the air-conditioned Captain's Deck with beverages available to purchase onboard.

After dinner you can choose to enjoy the views from the comfort of the Captain's Deck or capture the stunning scenery from the Lower Deck whilst the infamous Darwin sunset spreads magnificent colours across the harbour.

The cruise will return to Stokes Hill Wharf at approximately 8.30pm where you disembark and conclude the evening. (D)

Your journey begins with a morning departure from Darwin. Once you're settled into your private cabin, mingle with fellow travellers or sample the exceptional food, wine, and service onboard.

When it's time for lunch, savour the regionally-inspired menu accompanied by a selection of all-inclusive wines and beverages, before an early afternoon arrival at the Top End township of Katherine. Take a relaxing cruise through Nitmiluk Gorge's ancient natural wonders and exploring the region's rich Indigenous culture.

Enjoy dinner as the sun sets over the outback, then back in your cabin you'll find your bed turned down. Fall asleep as the train rolls soothingly onwards. Stay: The Ghan (L/D)

After your first night on The Ghan, you'll be greeted by a morning view of the spectacular Red Centre. A full day of excursions awaits you in the outback town of Alice Springs. An optional upgrade is a scenic flight to Uluru, returning in time to meet the rest of your fellow guests at a spectacular barbeque dinner under a million stars at the historic Alice Springs Telegraph Station. Stay: The Ghan (B/L/D)

From your morning stop at the outback outpost of Manguri, you'll venture into the weird and wonderful opal mining township of Coober Pedy, where more than half of the residents live underground.
