Journey Beyond is an Australian tourism company headquartered in Adelaide, South Australia, that specializes in experiential tourism built around luxury trains and cruise experiences. Operating under the Journey Beyond brand since 2017, the business traces its underlying rail operations to earlier companies and now runs a succession of tourism businesses across Australia. Its flagship rail services include The Ghan, running between Adelaide and Darwin, the Indian Pacific crossing the continent between Sydney and Perth, the Great Southern linking Brisbane and Adelaide, and The Overland between Melbourne and Adelaide, all marketed as premium long-distance rail journeys rather than ordinary point-to-point transport. Beyond rail, Journey Beyond has expanded into cruise and air tourism, giving it interests across multiple experiential travel segments. The company describes itself as Australia's largest experiential tourism business, and its trains are a well known part of how visitors and Australians alike travel across the country's vast interior.
