Insider Travel Tips

Uncover Lithuania's rich heritage and vibrant cultural tapestry.

Lithuania, nestled in the Baltic region of Europe, is a country steeped in cultural nuances and historical significance. It has preserved strong pagan roots, and this is evident in its unique traditions and festivals. The celebration of Joninės, a midsummer festival, reflects the country's connection to nature and ancient beliefs.

Lithuanians are ardent basketball enthusiasts, and the sport holds a special place in the nation's heart. Attending a basketball game or engaging in discussions about the sport provides insight into the country's fervent sports culture.

A symbol of resilience and spirituality, the Hill of Crosses is a pilgrimage site adorned with thousands of crosses. It serves as a powerful testament to Lithuania's history and unwavering faith.

Lithuanian, one of the oldest Indo-European languages, is not only the official language but also a symbol of national identity. Despite influences from neighboring languages, Lithuanian remains unique and distinct.

The country is known as the "Amber Capital of the World"  as it boasts abundant amber deposits along its Baltic Sea shores. Amber holds cultural significance, often used in traditional crafts and jewelry.

Explore Lithuania's medieval heritage by following the Castle Trail. Visit impressive fortifications like Trakai Island Castle, perched on a lake, and discover the tales of knights and medieval life.

Allan Birkett at Goway has been an absolute godsend! Over the past year, he has helped me plan numerous vacations—especially honeymoons—and has been an incredible partner every step of the way. He is always quick to respond, patient with my clients' frequent changes, and goes above and beyond to help whenever an issue comes up. His knowledge, professionalism, and dedication make my job as a travel advisor so much easier. I truly appreciate everything Allan does and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional service. Thank you, Allan, for always being thereBrooke Echols

Our 2-week trip to Normandy, Switzerland and Italy after we disembarked from the Queen Mary 2 in Southampton in mid-May was superb. Michael Keon did an amazing job of putting together highlights for us to see and visit with the short time we had. All the train reservations, private and small group tours and transportations were very well coordinated, on time, and usually exceeded our expectations. Drivers were courteous and knowledgeable. Mike did a wonderful job getting everything coordinated, in spite of our almost “last minute” booking. I booked a month-long trip through GOWAY back in 1989 for Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, and they were superb then. So I tried them again, and found the entire organization to be even better. Mike was quick to respond to any questions that came up regarding booksings and times, regardless of the 6-hour time difference. Just superb! Although we had a nasty experience in Milan, GOWAY was very responsive and saw to our requests and our needs. Again, Michael Keon is the person who coordinated our travel. I will ask for Mike when I travel again with GOWAY. I recommend GOWAY highly. PJ Wheeler

Goway helped plan our two week trip to Peru and they (Virginia in particular) did a great job. The on-site logistics with Condor Travel went very smoothly, and the trip exceeded our expectations overall. They proactively suggested changes to our initial itinerary which were welcomed. I would recommend them and would work with them again in the future.Kate O'Neill

I recently went on an African Safari with my brother-in-law and sister and another couple who I knew. The entire experience was absolutely unbelievable. The complete details were flawlessly coordinated from the transfers to the breathtaking lodges. Our guides Peter showed us Kenya and Maulid Tanzania were very knowledgeable and very sharp eyes for finding the animals. We were able to see the animals up close, learn a lot about the people, birds , vegetation etc. We had several sundowners in the bush really added to a magical experience with beautiful sunsets. I would highly recommend Goway to all my friends, they will not be disappointed. Thank you to Bijal for the excellent African Safari that you put together for us. You were wonderful.Nancy Hay
