The Indian Pacific – Sydney to Perth. You can read all about it here. It is a railway journey travelling across Australia and it takes a few days. Maybe not the most conventional road trip but I still consider it a road trip, albeit by rail.
You sleep here, wine and dine, meet other travellers and stop off at a few different locations along the way, all whilst taking in the magnificent views of the Australian outback. It kind of reminds me of Australia’s version of the Orient Express.
This trip is on my wish list big time. Unfortunately, it’s so hard to plan anything like this due to the ongoing pandemic and restrictions constantly changing here. Hopefully, one day, I will be able to experience this amazing road trip by rail.
If I were to travel by car. I would love to drive from Perth to Broome, driving up the west coast of Australia. The only thing is I would like to drive with a few other people. Safety in numbers. Have you ever seen Wolf Creek? 🙈
Thanks for reading guys. I cannot wait to hear what your favourite road trips would be.
Take care and stay safe,
Wayne ☺️
Lots of empty space between Sydney and Perth, but emptiness is strangely full of other things for those tuned in. Same on the NorthWest run. Beautiful colours. Won’t be long now before WA let’s down the drawbridge.

By coincidence, one of our travel plans which COVID delayed was….still is, when appropriate….to re-create the original route of the Orient Express bit by bit on public transport, with detours along the way. Driving wise, our favourite so far was Albania – started in Kosovo then drove from the mountains in the north down to the riviera coast and then on to Berat and Tirana. Not sure we have a specific road trip in our current plans though….

Perth to Broome is a long and (can be) boring drive 🙂 The reds of the Pilbara are magnificent.
Western Australian living in the Riverina here.
