Pristine Natural Wonders

New Zealand is renowned for its dramatic landscapes, and exploring these natural wonders is a must. Begin your journey in the North Island with a visit to Rotorua, a geothermal paradise where you can witness bubbling mud pools and steaming geysers. For the adventurous, the Tongariro Alpine Crossing provides a challenging trek across one of the country’s most stunning volcanic landscapes. Further south, the South Island mesmerizes with the majestic Fiordland National Park, home to the iconic Milford Sound. Here, towering cliffs plunge into serene waters, offering a tranquil setting for kayaking or a leisurely cruise.

Cultural Enrichment

Beyond its scenic beauty, New Zealand is rich in cultural heritage. Immerse yourself in Māori traditions by visiting a marae, a communal and sacred meeting ground, to experience traditional customs and storytelling. In Rotorua, you can participate in a Māori cultural show, which often includes the famous haka dance. Understanding and respecting the indigenous culture is an integral part of any visit, providing deeper insight into the country’s identity.

Exquisite Culinary Delights

New Zealand’s culinary scene is as diverse as its landscapes. Sample fresh seafood such as bluff oysters in the coastal town of Bluff, or savour a traditional hangi feast, where food is cooked underground using heated rocks. The nation’s vineyards, particularly in regions like Marlborough and Central Otago, offer exceptional wine-tasting experiences, featuring world-renowned Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Noirs. Whether you're indulging in gourmet treats or enjoying a simple lamb dish, the flavours of New Zealand are sure to delight.

Adventure Awaits

For thrill-seekers, New Zealand is a playground of adventure. Queenstown, known as the adventure capital of the world, offers activities ranging from bungee jumping to skydiving, promising adrenaline-pumping experiences. Or, for a more laid-back adventure, take a scenic helicopter ride over the Southern Alps or embark on a Lord of the Rings tour to visit the film locations that brought Middle-earth to life.

Practical Travel Tips

To make the most of your New Zealand journey, consider the various travel packages that cater to a range of interests and budgets. Whether you prefer guided tours or independent travel, there are options for everyone. The best travel packages to New Zealand often include transportation and accommodation, simplifying your travel experience.

The food in New Zealand is incredible, and New Zealanders are rightly proud of their paddock to plate cuisine. Almost everything is sustainably grown and processed, from lamb and seafood to vegetables and fruit.

I want to thank Taha for his outstanding knowledge on Ghana. It was so good to work with him on the planning and the process to Ghana. Everything was amazing, from the hotels, tour guide Leslie, restaurants, and the food. I would definitely recommend Taha to anyone wanting to travel with a group. Best, Lisa V HendersonLisa Henderson

Early 2026 I met Alice Teramoto at the Phoenix travel show. I asked her about a dive trip to the Great Barrier Reef. Thankfully I kept her card. About 7 months later I started planning the trip myself. I was overwhelmed after I got my airline tickets to and from Australia and organized a dive boat. Thankfully I found her card. I texted her with my dates and within two days she had a complete agenda to me. It was amazing. She had transport to and from airports, car rental, tours everywhere I was going. I was gone for 6 weeks and I was so happy with everything she planned. I haven't used a travel agent in the past but believe me I would us Goway Travel and Alice again. barbara coy

Vanessa from Goway Travel did a fantastic job pulling together a really comprehensive itinerary for our trip to Egypt. Her advice about "must see" sites was extremely helpful and she also provided great tips based on her own experience travelling to Egypt. Excellent planning by Vanessa meant we were able to thoroughly enjoy our trip. Olga

I want to Thank Vanessa Lloyd for putting together the most perfect itinerary for my husband and my dream trip to Santorini, Greece. Every detail was perfectly executed. From the pick ups, to tours and most certainly our hotel location, it was truly a dream!! We were so happy and completely blown away, that we couldn't help but shared our experience with several folks we met during our trip... and I just bet they will be using Goway Travel for any future plans of theirs, just like us. Africa, here we come....Tanya Kash

Exceptional Customer Service, Accountability, and Leadership — Thank You, Goway Travel! As a Canadian travel advisor with Discover Joy Travel, affiliated with TravelOnly, I want to recognize three exceptional individuals at Goway Travel: Jaime Vargas-Hernandez (Destination Specialist – North America and Latin America), Sean Hebert (Vice President, The Americas), and Jason Stratford (Business Development Manager). I recently booked a cross-Canada vacation for my clients, and while the itinerary offered many wonderful experiences, there were several unexpected challenges along the way, particularly involving transportation, transfers, and certain aspects of the overall travel experience. As a travel advisor, one of the most difficult situations is hearing that your clients are disappointed, especially when you've worked hard to create a memorable and seamless vacation for them. What truly impressed me was how Goway responded when things didn't go as planned. From the beginning, Jaime was responsive, professional, and genuinely committed to addressing our concerns. He listened carefully, communicated with the appropriate teams, and made sure our clients' feedback was taken seriously. Jason Stratford was equally supportive, demonstrating the value of having a Business Development Manager who genuinely advocates for travel advisors and their clients. I also want to extend my sincere appreciation to Sean Hebert, Vice President of The Americas, for his outstanding leadership and personal attention to our situation. His involvement demonstrated that customer satisfaction and accountability are priorities at Goway, even at the executive level. What impressed me most was that Goway didn't simply acknowledge the challenges — they listened, took ownership, and made a genuine effort to rebuild our clients' confidence and trust. In fact, despite the difficulties they experienced, my clients were so impressed with how Goway handled their concerns that they expressed interest in booking another international vacation through them, with another couple potentially joining! To me, that speaks volumes. Exceptional customer service isn't about everything going perfectly. It's about how a company responds when things go wrong. As a travel advisor, I value supplier relationships built on trust, transparency, accountability, and genuine care for travellers. Knowing that I have a team willing to listen, take responsibility, and work toward a resolution gives me greater confidence when recommending Goway to my clients. Jaime, Jason, and Sean — thank you for your professionalism, patience, dedication, and for making me feel genuinely supported as a travel advisor. You didn't just help resolve a difficult situation; you helped restore confidence and strengthen a valuable business relationship. Goway is fortunate to have individuals like you representing the company. I look forward to continuing our partnership and creating many more memorable travel experiences for our clients. Highly recommended — not because everything was perfect, but because Goway demonstrated what genuine accountability, strong leadership, and exceptional customer service should look like. — Evangeline Fiset Discover Joy Travel | TravelOnly Fort St. John, British Columbia, CanadaEvangeline de Torres - Fiset

This is a review for my Goway travel guide in Ho Chi Minh City. Mr. PHẠM HỮU THIỆN (TONY) was a very kind and knowledgeable guide during our 5 day stay in the city. Friendly, likeable and funny, Very accommodating to our needs during our visit. He and his driver were always early for every excursion as well as the final day for our airport departure. He gave us wonderful recommendations for sights and restaurants for our personal time. I highly recommend Mr. Pham (Tony) for your stay in the Ho Chi Minh area.George C.

Brooke Theron has booked 3 trips for us, France and Tunisia in 2025 and we have just returned from a 2 week trip from China. The entire trip was flawless, from the research to the booking Brooke is always soo helpful in whole process. Brooke always works with us to answer any questions and make sure any request we have can be added. Our tour guides James, Helen, Felicity and Keira and drivers were all top notch with lots of information on each stop and sent us onto our next stop with no problems. The hotels, trains and tours were all excellent. We couldn't have asked for more I look forward to working with Brooke and Goway tours on our next vacation.Maddie
