The Allure of Stunning Landscapes

From the snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps to the rolling vineyards of Marlborough, New Zealand’s landscapes are iconic. Travel the length of both the North and South Islands to witness stunning vistas ranging from lush rainforests to serene beaches. Consider exploring the Fiordland National Park for a glimpse of crashing waterfalls amidst towering cliffs. In contrast, the geothermal wonders of Rotorua offer a sensory experience with its enchanting hot springs and steaming geysers.

Cultural Riches and Traditions

Delve into the rich tapestry of Maori culture that enriches the nation’s heritage. Participate in a traditional hangi feast or witness the powerful haka, a ceremonial dance that captures the spirit of Maori identity. In Rotorua, cultural villages provide insight into centuries-old customs and crafts. Meanwhile, the urban landscapes of Auckland and Wellington blend contemporary art and music, reflecting New Zealand’s dynamic cultural scene. A journey through these cities is incomplete without a visit to their bustling markets, where Maori artisans showcase their intricate carvings and weaving.

Outdoor Adventures at Your Fingertips

New Zealand is an adventurer’s dream. Whether you’re embarking on a leisurely hike on the Tongariro Alpine Crossing or seeking the thrill of bungy jumping in Queenstown, adrenaline-filled experiences are plentiful in this breathtaking country. Opt for a guided excursion through Abel Tasman National Park, where kayaking amidst secluded bays offers a tranquil immersion into nature’s splendor. For the ultimate rush, take a scenic flight over the magnificent Milford Sound for an aerial view of the country's natural wonders.

Explore Culinary Delights

A journey to New Zealand is incomplete without indulging in its culinary delights. Savour the taste of mouthwatering lamb dishes or fresh seafood, such as green-lipped mussels and crayfish. Vineyards across the North Island offer the perfect opportunity to sample world-renowned wines, including the distinctive Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough. You’ll find that the dining experiences in New Zealand are as diverse and vibrant as its landscapes.

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.

Katie's knowledge and support were the primary reason the trip worked so well. Everything went smoothly, and the vacation could not have been any better. The hotels were wonderful, the two tours we took went well, and there were no issues with flights or transfers. GERAR

We have used Goway Travel previously, and they are the best. Our travel specialist, Shalini Thakur, designed our trip to Italy exactly the way we wanted. They make traveling so low-stress. The itinerary is very detailed, giving you plenty of time to review prior to your trip. We have drivers that meet us at the airport and take us to and from all stops on our trip. No dealing with trains and buses and taxis and dragging your luggage all over. They have great local guides for excursions, most in small groups of 10 or less. The trip is so much more meaningful with a knowledgeable guide to explain the history. Our accommodations are always centrally located to our excursions, most of the time we are picked up at our hotel. We like to keep busy on our trips, but Goway always plans a great balance that gives us time to rest a little after late nights or long days, so you don't get exhausted, which is nice as we are all in our late 60's. Although we have never needed to use it, it gives peace of mind knowing Goway has 24/7 emergency contacts if you need anything. We will definitely be contacting Shalini and Goway for our future trips. David Merrifield

Big shout out to Melissa-Lee and her team at Goway. She crafted a personal adventure through Peru. We gave her our must see places and she nailed it. The team on the ground was exceptional. The guides were all very knowledgeable. The hotels were all chosen carefully and exceeded our expectations. Could not have asked for a better tour. We will definitely use them again.Joanne

I began planning my Italy vacation with Avery more than a year before we traveled, and I want to start by giving her the recognition she deserves. Avery did an exceptional job planning this trip. From the beginning, I had a very clear vision of what I wanted to experience in Italy, and she listened carefully and captured it. The destinations, hotels, tours, transportation and overall flow of the trip were thoughtfully planned. Aside from three specific issues that I will address, everything came together extremely well. One of the things I appreciated most was the attention to logistics. The hotels were conveniently located, our tour meeting points were generally close to our accommodations, and the routing between cities made sense. Those details may seem small during the planning process, but once you are actually traveling through multiple cities, they make an enormous difference. I especially appreciated the meet and greet services and arranged transfers because they removed much of the stress that comes with arriving somewhere unfamiliar. I did not have to constantly worry about where to go, how to get there or who I was supposed to meet. I was able to enjoy my vacation instead of managing the logistics of my vacation. The people Avery arranged for us to work with in Italy were also excellent overall. Our drivers, guides and local representatives were professional, pleasant and easy to communicate with. We stayed at five hotels, and with the exception of Dharma Luxury Hotel in Rome, the other four were excellent. I loved them and would not change those selections. From a travel planning perspective, I would give Avery more than five stars. She listened, understood what I wanted and created the Italy experience I had envisioned. I would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to others. There were, however, three specific issues during the trip that I believe deserve attention. These involved the third-party operator used for our Siena, San Gimignano and Chianti tour, our experience at Dharma Luxury Hotel in Rome, and the response from Goway’s emergency travel support. I want to separate these concerns from my experience with Avery because I do not believe they reflect the quality of the work she did planning our vacation. My recommendations are therefore directed toward strengthening the third-party services surrounding the travel experience. I recommend that Goway review the operator used for the Siena, San Gimignano and Chianti tour, reconsider Dharma Luxury Hotel based on the maintenance and customer service issues I experienced and conduct a formal review of its emergency support provider, including whether the response to my request complied with the provider’s contractual service levels. Overall, this was an incredible Italy vacation, and Avery deserves tremendous credit for making it happen. Planning an excellent vacation is important, and she accomplished that. At the same time, what happens when something does not go according to plan is also an important part of the travel experience. The three problems I encountered were specific and identifiable, and addressing those areas would make an already excellent travel planning experience significantly stronger.S Moolah

Katie our travel agent planned a wonderful trip for us. Everything was taken care of and we didn’t have to worry about anything. I would highly recommend Go Way travel when planning a trip. 49ergirl

I worked with Maria S. from Goway Travel to build a tailored trip to the Azores and mainland Portugal. Maria provided excellent, responsive and patient service, never pressured me into making decisions, offered multiple options for managing pricing, answered my many questions clearly and fully, and always met the timelines she would set to get back to me. Once I was on my trip, Maria checked in several times even though there was an operator on the ground at my destination; she even resolved a minor mix-up with one of my hotels and arranged for a special surprise on my birthday. I cannot speak highly enough of Maria's professionalism, follow-through, positivity, attention to detail and responsiveness. I highly recommend Goway and Maria for your travel plans, and will definitely use this company again for my future travels. Thank you so much for making my trip to Portugal so memorable, Maria!

Extremely delighted we took this trip to Bali with Goway. Ameet was fantastic. He helped me save on my flights and also guided me on the right hotel decisions. Extremely Charming and always a pleasure to chat to. We enjoyed the Komodo islands a lot thanks to our specialist who made the recommendation. Hid guidance on the places and restaurants was spot on and we and my gf enjoyed the trip so much. We will consider using Goway and Ameet for our Honeymoon as well.Garth Cutos

Touching base after our trip. As usual you did a great job helping plan and execute an amazing travel experience!! Everything was fantastic. Especially our hotel location. Since it's connected to the Victoria station it made getting around very easy. Thanks again for your help I'm sure we'll be booking our next trip soon...Leigh Ferris
