Journey Beyond is the trading name and brand deployed since 2017 by a succession of companies providing experiential tourism in Australia, including luxury trains (The Ghan, the Indian Pacific, and the Great Southern) and The Overland interstate service.

From 1996 to 1998, Australian National was broken up and in 1997 its interstate passenger trains — The Ghan, Indian Pacific and The Overland — were sold to Great Southern Rail (GSR), a consortium of GB Railways, Legal & General, Macquarie Bank, RailAmerica, G13 Pty Ltd[2] and Serco, at a book valuation of A$$16 million.

[16] In 2017, a private company, Experience Australia Group Pty Ltd, was established as the corporate entity conducting the business's operations.

The buyer was the San Francisco-based Hornblower Group, owned by Crestview Partners, a New York-based private equity firm.

[19] After failing to find a buyer in 2023, Hornblower filed for bankruptcy in February 2024; Journey Beyond activities were separated from the group and came under sole ownership of Crestview Partners.
