Private Half Day Private Palais des Papes and Avignon Walking Tour

Let the past come alive under the guidance of our expert guide as you step into the history of Avignon, where the colossal Palais des Papes (Papal Palace) beckons with its Gothic splendor. This monumental testament to Europe's Gothic architecture once served as the epicenter of papal power and hosted six papal conclaves within these hallowed walls. Explore Avignon's enchanting cobbled streets, passing by the charming Place de l'Horloge. Discover the iconic Pont Saint-Benezet, often recognized from the beloved children's song, 'sur le pont d'Avignon, l'on y danse, l'on y danse.' This remarkable bridge, built in the late 12th century, once spanned the majestic Rhone River, connecting Avignon with the nearby town of Villeneuve-les-Avignon. Though partially destroyed today, it stands as a poignant reminder of Avignon's rich history and architectural heritage.

We went on a highly customized comprehensive (though quick tour) of England and a bit of Scotland through Goway. Ingrid Aird did an amazing job of planning and arranging every detail with her deep experience, insight, thoughtfulness and creativity, tuning into the needs of each traveler; and she did so even though our decision to travel was rather spontaneous and last minute! Our family had the best time! We look forward to working with Ingrid and Goway again!Vilja Breiling

I can't tell you enough how much I love to work with Callie. She is a life saver and I love how attentive she is. Every time I give her an itinerary for a client- she really knocks it out of the park with the proposal. If there are any issues- she is on it right away. Her work ethic is outstanding.Michelle Labarca

I had the pleasure of working with Amelia on a booking for a family of 4 to Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. She executed everything perfectly, was attentive to needs and the family was over the top happy with their vacation. She was quick to answer questions and provide helpful feedback. Highly recommended!Jessie Williams

We were trying to navigate Swiss Travel Center to book a 10 day train trip through Switzerland. It was exactly what we wanted but navigating their site was extremely difficult for us. Goway Travel picked up on our plight and put us in contact with Jacqueline Fagooli, one of their agents. From there on everything was so smooth. Their efficiency, communication, and thoroughness were beyond our expectations. The trip was fabulous and kudos to Jacqueline and Goway for their help in making it so.Carolyn McCormack

The destination specialist I've worked with (Kim Rawlings) has provided exceptional service. She is very knowledgeable of her region and everything they have to offer. She is very prompt in her communication and follow-up. She listens and is very attentive to my client's needs and wants. Kim's personality makes one feel like they've known each other for years. If GoWay had a customer service model, Kim is it.T. Jackson, Tribe Trek Travel
