Discovering the Majesty of Helsinki

Begin your Finnish journey in the vibrant capital of Helsinki, a city that hums with creativity and innovation. Finland private tours in Helsinki often include explorations of its iconic architecture, such as the awe-inspiring Helsinki Cathedral with its elegant dome and neoclassical façades. Stroll through the bustling Market Square where local vendors offer Finnish delicacies, from savoury muikku (fried vendace) to sweet pulla (cardamom-spiced buns).

A Taste of Tradition

In Helsinki, the culinary scene is a delightful fusion of traditional Finnish flavours and modern cuisine. Consider participating in a private cooking class, where expert chefs guide you through crafting classic dishes like karjalanpiirakka, a savory rice pastry, and flavorful reindeer stew. These intimate classes provide an authentic taste of Finland’s culinary heritage, offering insights into its deep-rooted traditions.

The Serenity of Finnish Lapland

Venturing north, Finnish Lapland unfolds in a breathtaking tapestry of snow-capped landscapes and ethereal skies. Here, trips to Finland transform into enchanting winter wonderlands. Private experiences in Finland in this region might include a thrilling husky sled ride through pristine forests or an enchanting night in a glass igloo, beneath the dazzling aurora borealis.

Embrace the Wilderness

For those seeking solitude and natural beauty, a visit to a reindeer farm offers a glimpse into the traditional Sámi way of life. Sámi guides, renowned for their profound knowledge of the Arctic, lead intimate tours allowing travellers to connect with these majestic creatures. Learn about reindeer herding, an integral part of Sámi culture, through engaging and personal stories shared by the guides.

Exploring the Archipelago

No trips to Finland are complete without exploring its captivating archipelago, a labyrinth of islands dotted across the Baltic Sea. Private boat tours allow you to meander through this serene landscape, stopping at picturesque fishing villages and secluded beaches. Each island offers a unique charm, from rustic wooden saunas to lighthouses overlooking vast, tranquil waters.

Sustainable Journeys

Environmental consciousness is deeply woven into Finnish culture, and many private tours incorporate sustainable practices. Experience eco-friendly boating that minimizes environmental impact or join guided wildlife walks to discover the diverse ecosystems of the archipelago. These activities not only showcase Finland’s stunning natural beauty but also encourage the preservation of its breathtaking landscapes.

Cultural Immersion in Turku

Turn your gaze to Turku, Finland’s oldest city where history comes alive. On a Finland private tour, explore the medieval Turku Castle, its walls echoing tales of knights and nobility. The cobblestone streets and vibrant cultural scene offer a perfect blend of the past and present, inviting you to discover local arts and crafts markets and contemporary Finnish art exhibits.

Art and Innovation

Turku is a city that thrives on creativity. Private art tours guide you through the city’s rich tapestry of galleries and workshops, where you can meet local artisans and observe traditional craftsmanship. Whether it’s pottery, weaving, or glassblowing, these tours provide a personal insight into Finland’s artistic heart, celebrating its history and innovation.

Embarking on a journey through Finland is more than just a trip; it's an invitation to immerse yourself in its enchanting blend of natural wonders and cultural riches. Whether you're soaring under the northern lights in Lapland or strolling through Helsinki’s historic streets, every moment spent unearthing this Nordic treasure will inspire memories to last a lifetime.

You should try a Zen meditation session. Imagine slipping into a silk kimono for the day—carefully tied by an expert dresser, every fold precise, every colour chosen to suit the season. It’s a ritual that feels as personal as it is timeless.

What do I love about Japan? In a word - EVERYTHING. The incredible contrast that Japan offers - new/innovative vs old/traditional, the warm and welcoming people, the incredible rich culture, the culinary wonders awaiting around every corner, the cleanliness, efficiency and safety. It's one of the best places to visit in Asia in my opinion.

Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.

I love how laidback and relaxed Laos is compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. It's like the best of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand all rolled into one, and then sent back in time 20 to 30 years.

This is an excellent tour agency that provides an excellent, all inclusive safari experience in South Africa, especially in the renown Kruger National Park. The agency will provide a very detailed, day-by-day itinerary of the trip, which, for the most part, describes exactly the order of activities that a customer will experience from start to end of the reserved trip. Our safari trip included a hotel pick-up in Cape Town in the beginning of the safari trip and drop-off at the end of the trip. Flights to and from either Johannesburg or Mpumalanga airport are included. We reserved a 3-day safari trip which included an afternoon safari the first day, a full day safari the 2nd day, and a morning safari the 3rd day. The lodge where we stayed was very clean with modern and convenient accommodations, including WIFI and breakfast. The guides are well trained and very knowledgeable about all animals we came across during our trip, and were also very courteous, polite and easy to engage in conversation. They made our safari trip exciting but safe! I would highly recommend this safari tour agency. Christos Patriotis

I had an amazing trip. It was more than I could have expected. I got to see everything I wished to see while I was abroad. All the guides were lovely and provided me with excellent knowledge on their cities/tours. Especially in China where it was their holiday week and they all took time away from their families to make me around their cities. The tour company in Japan made sure I got to every tour destination and knew what the plan was for each day. This is the second time I have used Goway for traveling and it has exceeded my expectations. katieahotmail.com

We just returned from a 2 week tour of South Africa, Zimbabwe(Victoria Falls) and Botswana, and had a fabulous time! This was the third tour I've used Goway, and as usual, it was such a positive experience! The accommodations that were booked were awesome! The hotels were luxurious, clean and the staff, all so warm and welcoming! Our travel agent, Vanessa Lloyd, did a fabulous job arranging everything, and was always available to answer my many questions! We'll be using them again, next year when we take a family trip to the Greek Islands and Turkey! They are always consistent in the quality of the hotels and experiences, and I highly recommend them for your travel needs!Fran Nitta Barnes

We are still on our journey in Italy. At Capri now and heading to the Amalfi Coast. So far, we can’t thank Goway enough for putting our itinerary together so quickly. Everything is going well and hope the next 10 days are perfect too. Gladys Vivian

Can't say enough good things about Goway Travel. From the very start, our travel rep, Harpreet, listened carefully to what we were hoping to see and do on our first trip to Japan. She asked great questions and then came back to us with a detailed itinerary packed with adventure and fun, and all within our travel budget. From the moment we took off from LAX, Harpreet had made sure we had every tour voucher, hotel voucher, plane ticket, train ticket, literally every detail covered. All we had to do was follow our itinerary. Also, Harpreet booked us into terrific hotels. Each one was spotlessly clean, comfortable, included a full (and delicious) breakfast and, most importantly, was centrally located to all of the activities she had planned for us. So everything was a 5 or 10-minute walk away. In three weeks' time we were able to visit six cities and so many fascinating shrines, temples, castles, imperial palaces - most of which were World Heritage sites. Harpreet also tucked in fabulous "experiences" like learning how to make sushi with a professional chef, enjoying a tea ceremony and watching graceful Geishas dance. My husband and I are seasoned travelers. But we don't speak Japanese and we really knew very little about the country. There is no way we would have been able to see and do all of the fascinating things we did in Japan if we hadn't chosen Goway Travel to be our guide. Many thanks for an unforgettable trip!

Great country (Italy), great people and love the feel you get by just being you. Ingrid Aird did a great job with a pair of tours one private and one group. Organizing pickup from airport and flights. Hotel, Enterprise Hotel, after a bit of a rough start getting us into a proper room, was more than excellent.Thomas Helps

We were looking forward to a magical vacation in Greece, and Goway Travel delivered on all fronts. This is the second time that we have booked with them (the first being an incredible excursion in Thailand), and everything went along swimmingly. Only on one occasion did a tour go sideways, but our Goway specialist (Patrick) took care of it for us. When your tour involves many flights, numerous hotels, various tours, ferries, and transfers, it is nice to know that your travel specialist can handle it all. Goway (from Patrick to all the other staff involved) handled everything in such a professional manner. Thanks Goway for such an incredible experience in Greece. I look forward to another adventure in the near future!Jenny Friess

We recently returned from France - three cities in two weeks - and our trip was fantastic! Jacqueline helped us with a return to France with no worries and concerns. Drivers met us at every destination- hotels were superb and the individual tours memorable. This is a return vacation with Goway and we could not be more pleased. The customer service is top notch and all questions answered promptly. For us seniors, we appreciate all the thoughtfulness and consideration.ElizaGray

While researching suppliers for a clients Thailand honeymoon, I remembered being referred to GoWay by a longterm TA ….because they “get it right and get it done!” I had already started their training modules, so I put in a quote. Immediately, Taylor responded with a very thorough email and we decided to chat. I gave him my specifics and he again responded immediately and matched my client’s travel needs 100%. I found it comforting to speak with a country expert with the knowledge I needed. My clients booked their vacation and are very excited about their itinerary! Thank you Taylor for making this process seamless.Karla B
