Woke up to ocean views, chased waterfalls, cooked under the stars… now that’s a perfect weekend. All you need is the right van – and a sense of adventure.

We're swapping outback dust for green valleys as the Indian Pacific winds its way into the misty Blue Mountains. The final stretch takes us into Sydney, where the journey ends – but the memories last a lifetime.

Join the fabulous Shelita Buffet for a tour of Broken Hill, where history, art and drag come together for a one-of-a-kind outback adventure.

Wine country on the rails. The Indian Pacific slows down for a day of world-class vineyards and laid-back charm in the Barossa Valley.

From the goldfields of Kalgoorlie to the silence of the Nullarbor and the tiny ghost town of Cook, this is the wild heart of Australia.

Step aboard the Indian Pacific for an epic 4352km adventure to see Australia like never before.

From the red heart of the outback to lush Top End landscapes, The Ghan is slow travel at its finest – with gourmet dining, epic sunsets and pure adventure along the way.

These outback pubs are not just places to grab a cold beer; they’re the heartbeat of remote communities, brimming with history, character and some seriously memorable characters.

We're in the ultimate holiday limbo, just like this sleepy kangaroo at East Coast Natureworld. The ‘should I nap or party?’ dilemma hits hard. How are you spending this week?

Australia’s white sand beaches are calling – which one will you visit first?
