How long does it take from Perth to Esperance and can you travel by rail?

Question

Just checking before hand whether a railway runs through that way being my first time there? If not how long does the a coach take?

Answer 1

nope no rail to esperance although they have rail for the mining port..Its a LONG drive..did it last year..but its worth going.  one suggestion.try a standby cars/camper hire from perth..thats what i did but fuelprices are now astronomical so do your sums..would cost about 1000 in fuel return compared to maybe  a coach..way cheaper, but would be boring or just hire a small car and drive would be an option,probly 500 return to perth..or fly into kalgoorlie and go down from there. Its still a long way

You can go part rail and bus and the details are above or you can fly there. The road journey would take you all day.
