Unveiling Italy’s Timeless Treasures

Italy boasts a myriad of must-visit cities. Florence, often referred to as the cradle of the Renaissance, is home to world-renowned museums and classical art treasures, including Michelangelo’s David. Wander through the cobblestoned streets to discover piazzas bustling with life and cafes serving potent Italian espresso.

In Venice, the famous lagoon city built on stilts, explore its intricate canal system from a gondola, marvel at the grandeur of St. Mark’s Basilica and traverse the iconic Rialto Bridge.

The Cultural Heartbeat

Rome, the Eternal City, blends history with the hustle and bustle of modern life. Stand in awe of the Colosseum’s colossal architecture or toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain to ensure your return. Each corner of the city tells a story, from the whispering walls of the Pantheon to vibrant neighbourhoods like Trastevere with its lively trattorias.

The cultural bounty doesn’t end there. A journey along the Amalfi Coast provides breathtaking views atop steep cliffs, with every bend revealing picturesque towns like Positano and Ravello. These areas are perfect for those considering custom vacation packages to Italy that focus on both relaxation and exploration.

A Gastronomic Adventure

In Naples, the birthplace of pizza, indulge in a slice of Margherita that embodies simplicity and flavour. Venturing into Tuscany, enjoy a food and wine tour that pairs local produce with elegant Chianti wines, capturing the essence of Italian culinary tradition.

Those interested in more hands-on experiences can opt for cooking classes in the Emilia-Romagna region, known for its balsamic vinegar and parmesan cheese. These tours of Italy are perfect for food lovers who wish to bring a piece of Italian culinary magic back home.

Experiencing Italy’s Natural Beauty

Beyond its cities and food, Italy’s landscapes are nothing short of spectacular. The undulating hills of Tuscany offer paths for cycling through vineyards and olive groves. In contrast, the majestic Dolomites in the north provide exhilarating hiking trails with panoramic views that promise serenity and adventure.

For seaside lovers, Cinque Terre’s pastel-coloured fishing villages perched on cliffsides offer dramatic views of the Ligurian Sea. Here, trails connect the towns and offer breathtaking vantage points of this picturesque coastline.

Italy is full of hidden culinary gems, but one place that really stands out is Trattoria di Via Serra in Bologna. It’s beloved by locals for its authentic Emilian dishes like handmade tortellini in brodo and rich tagliatelle al ragù

One unforgettable tradition travelers should try to experience is a sagra—a local food festival that celebrates a specific dish, ingredient, or harvest. These are often held in small towns, especially in the summer and fall, and they offer an amazing window into real Italian life

Italy is not just Rome, Venice, Florence and Amalfi Coast... Every region or small town has its own history, art, traditions, culture, peculiarity

Most tourists don’t realize just how deeply regional Italy is. Not just in terms of food, but also in language, traditions, and identity. Italian culture is really a patchwork of local cultures

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

We had a wonderful and amazing two weeks in North-West Scotland. Shoutout to Jacqueline at Goway Toronto and the driver/guides with Rabbie's minibus tours (Stefan and Willie). Well-chosen hotels and no worries with dietary requirements; every detail was taken care of. Thank you! Ben Daube
