Railway Adventures

Ever wanted to ride the world’s great railway lines in the company of like-minded travellers and an experienced escort?

Founded in 2012 by well-known Australian television personality and self-confessed railfan, Scott McGregor, it has thrilled and delighted almost 1500 travellers on over 120 tours around Australia and across the world. Scott’s belief is that the most relaxing, romantic, and engaging way to see a country is from the window of a train.

New tours are launched regularly, inspired by heritage, vintage and steam trains, new routes, and the growing interest in taking a train to some of the world’s most fascinating places. But you don’t have to be a train ‘nut’ to enjoy a Railway Adventures tour – there’s something for everyone!

The Railway Adventures story began back in 1980 when Scott began to create his own unique personal rail retreat and amass one of the most extensive rail memorabilia collections in the country. Ruwenzori Retreat, a collection of beautifully restored vintage railway carriages located atop the Great Dividing Range just outside Mudgee also operates as a boutique tourist accommodation. Comprising exclusive Orient Express style comfort for up to 13 guests, the ‘single hire’ policy ensures that whoever is there gets the whole place exclusively to themselves.
