A silver 1960s rail motor that trundles inland from Cairns across the Gulf Savannah to Forsayth, run as a leisurely multi-day outback adventure with overnight stops.
The Savannahlander is a classic 1960s silver rail motor that runs as a multi-day guided tour from Cairns into the Gulf Savannah, with stops at Mount Surprise (for the Undara lava tubes), Einasleigh and Forsayth. It's slow travel at its best — short hops by day, comfortable accommodation by night. Operates seasonally and books out in advance.
