The Allure of London

England’s capital is a global city where centuries-old landmarks meet modern vibrancy. From the regal majesty of Buckingham Palace to the Gothic grandeur of Westminster Abbey, London is a living museum of British history. Explore world-class galleries like the Tate Modern, or browse through the treasures of the British Museum.

Beyond its historical weight, London pulses with creativity—from the colourful markets of Camden to the eclectic food scene of Shoreditch. An evening ride on the London Eye offers sweeping views of a city that always surprises.

Tranquility in the Cotswolds

Escape to the honey-hued villages and rolling hills of the Cotswolds, where traditional English charm thrives. Stroll through stone cottages draped in wisteria, visit bustling market towns like Stow-on-the-Wold, and pause for cream tea in cosy countryside tearooms.

The landscape invites outdoor wanderers and slow travellers alike, offering pastoral serenity and storybook views at every turn.

Legends and Coastlines in South West England

The rugged beauty of South West England is steeped in legend and framed by dramatic coasts. Discover ancient tales in Tintagel, said to be the birthplace of King Arthur, or wander the hauntingly beautiful moorlands of Dartmoor.

Whether you're tracing the wild Jurassic Coast, exploring the Roman roots of Bath, or sampling Cornish pasties by the sea, this region combines natural drama with historic charm.

Wild Beauty in the Yorkshire Moors & Dales

Vast, windswept, and deeply atmospheric, the Yorkshire Moors and Dales offer some of England’s most stirring scenery. Explore heather-covered hills and limestone valleys, where quaint villages and medieval abbeys nestle into the landscape.

This is Brontë country, where literary lore is as rich as the views. Stop in at a cosy pub after a day’s hike and savour the rustic soul of the north.

Peace and Poetry in the Lake District

The Lake District, a UNESCO World Heritage site, has long inspired poets and painters. Its glassy lakes, rugged fells, and winding trails offer an escape into sublime nature.

Follow in the footsteps of Wordsworth, explore local craft shops, or simply sit lakeside and breathe in the peace. The Lake District is a place to slow down and reconnect with nature’s rhythms.

Other Gems to Discover

England’s allure doesn’t end there. Discover the academic elegance of Oxford and Cambridge, the coastal charm of Norfolk, or the castles and cathedrals of Kent. Each region has its own distinct voice and offers something unique to curious travellers.

A Taste of England’s Rich Traditions

From hearty pub fare to Michelin-starred innovation, England’s food scene is as diverse as its landscape. Sample fish and chips by the seaside, indulge in a traditional Sunday roast, or sip real ale in a historic inn.

England’s culinary revival celebrates both local traditions and global influence, making mealtime an essential part of your journey.

Whether you're drawn by history, nature, or culture, England offers a mosaic of experiences. Each region reveals a different facet of its identity, waiting to be discovered one story at a time.

A traditional British high tea is a must do in my option. If traditional isnt your cup of tea there are a seemingly endless amount of themed teas including but not limited to Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Bridgerton and Wizard themed.

I love the history of England. There is so much to see and experience not only in regards to history but art and architecture, natural beauty and so much more. It is a very easy country to get around and also very easy to use it as a jumping off point for visiting the rest of Europe.

Late spring to early fall for the best chance of nice weather or during Christmas. London is magical at Christmas time.

The English are actually proud of their cuisine (mostly stereotyped as bland). Afternoon Tea, A full English Breakfast, a Chippy Stand, traditional Sunday roast - all must tries!

Bijal and Martin (tour guide in Kenya) made this the trip of a lifetime. I felt safe every minute of the trip. I did not care for the travel from the Serengeti to Ngorogoro Crater. I felt the last hotel was too far from the crater i was exhausted not wanted to travel to the crater. The travel was absolutely brutal for 6 hoursKathie Becker

Our safari in Tanzania was excellent. Brooke Theron, our Goway representative, was easy to work with, responsive and knowledgeable. Our guide in Tanzania, Anwar Razak, was outstanding. His knowledge and his driving ability was impressive. He was also engaging. We enjoyed our time with Anwar. The camps that Goway recommended were comfortable, welcoming and surprisingly luxurious while capturing the essence of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We had a wonderful trip. Jack B.

I am so happy to use Goway for my tour experience while visiting Vietnam during Oct 15 through October 29, 2026. We had 3 very good, thoughtful, and caring guides in Hanoi, Danang, and Ho Chi Minh City. They were very knowledgeable for each of their respective areas. they all fulfilled every part of our itinerary. I wish to give an extra acknowledgment to my guide in Danang and Hoi An. Mr. Phung Van Hung was very friendly and caring for me. During my stay in Hoi An, I became sick and required a visit to the local hospital in Hoi An. I contacted Mr. Phung, and he graciously offered to take me and stay with me to interpret during my visit for medical care even though he was not working that day. I really appreciate his extra above and beyond service he provided. I really must let Goway know, he is a wonderful guide!George C.

Suzzette and her team provided exceptional support throughout our year‑long planning process for our Bali group. Despite multiple changes, updates, and last‑minute cancellations, she remained organized, responsive, and solution‑focused. Asia Trails Indonesia delivered a seamless experience from arrival to departure, and our guides, Dayu and Adit, were outstanding; prompt, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. The coordination across multiple departure cities, the curated excursions, and the overall flow of the itinerary were executed beautifully. My group thoroughly enjoyed the trip and is already asking about returning. I highly recommend Suzzette as a group coordinator for her professionalism, dedication, and high‑quality service.Anchored Memories Travel

Mike K. graciously provided us with a perfect itinerary, offering us flexible high quality options for our trip. We added in a few complex details and he maneuvered around them creating smooth transitions. Planning an overseas 11 day trip can be overwhelming and Mike made everything feel easy. I highly recommend!Amy Challgren

Goway staff was available to us throughout our entire trip to Costa Rica. Their involvement was seamless and surprisingly smooth between them and all of our hotels and tours. We have been totally impressed with their involvement with our travel agent and their complete resolution of the only problem we had during the 2 different international trips that we have taken.Diana McCrory

Thank you to Goway for a great and enjoyable 7 day tour in China, for our Canadian group of 14! Very special thanks to the local guides in Shanghai, Xi’an and Beijing ( Richard, Richard and James) who were second to none! Each was a knowledgeable ambassador for their home city, working hard to ensure our enjoyment and comfort, and to showcase the beauty of each area and its current and historical sites. They very kindly and patiently assisted everyone, and especially accommodated 2 of our group who encountered unexpected wellness challenges. The local bus drivers for our group were experts too, keeping us on time and safe on the roads and highways. Hotels were beautiful, welcoming, well located and appointed, quiet, comfortable and clean. Additional travel arrangements by air and high speed train went off without a hitch. KATHLEEN LLOYD

This was the first time we used Goway Travel and Brooke Theron was absolutely the best to deal with. Our safari in Africa was fabulous and we were able to have all four questions answered before we left. It was a trip to remember and we would recommend both Brooke and Goway to other who are looking for a great experience. Thanks Brooke and Goway.Joyce Robinson
