Discover Ljubljana: The Heartbeat of the Nation

Begin your Slovenian journey in Ljubljana, the charming capital city. Known for its vibrant arts scene and lively street cafes, Ljubljana is a place where modernity meets tradition. Stroll along the picturesque Ljubljanica River, where the city’s architectural wonders unfold—with buildings ranging from Roman antiquity to neoclassical grandeur and even contemporary designs.

Delve into the history as you wander through Ljubljana Castle perched atop a hill. The sweeping views of the city from the castle are truly breathtaking. For those inclined towards more cultural experiences, the city's museums, such as the National Museum of Slovenia, offer deep insights into the nation’s rich heritage.

Embrace Nature in Lake Bled and Beyond

No trip to Slovenia would be complete without a visit to Lake Bled. Envision rowing across the serene lake waters to the iconic island church, set against the backdrop of the majestic Julian Alps. The sight of Bled Castle majestically overseeing the lake makes for a picture-perfect moment.

  • Hiking Enthusiasts: Triglav National Park offers extensive trails, making it ideal for hikers looking to embrace Slovenia's wild beauty.
  • Winter Sports: Plan your custom holiday trips to Slovenia during the colder months to indulge in skiing adventures in the Kranjska Gora region.

Incorporating nature's grandeur into your travel plans might just ignite a passion for the outdoors you never knew you had.

The Karst Region: A Tapestry of Wonders

The Karst region, known for its unique geological formations, opens a portal to another world beneath your feet. Embark on an exploration of the Škocjan Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The network of underground passages, chambers, and waterfalls is a true testament to the region's natural wonders.

When designing custom travel packages to Slovenia, don’t forget to include a visit to the Lipica Stud Farm. The home of the classical Lipizzaner horses, it offers a glimpse into Slovenia's equestrian traditions and allows you the rare opportunity to see these magnificent creatures up close.

Culinary Delights: A Taste of Slovenia

With many culinary experiences to savor, Slovenia does not disappoint the gastronomes. The diversity of Slovenia’s cuisine reflects its geographical and cultural influences, making it perfect for food enthusiasts planning trips to Slovenia.

  • Local Flavours: Indulge in the traditional dish, Carniolan sausage, or try Bujta repa, a hearty dish made with turnips and pork.
  • Wine Connoisseurs: Sip on local wines in the Styria wine region, which boasts family-owned vineyards with picturesque views and delicious wines.

Every meal in Slovenia is a celebration of flavors and a chance to engage with locals, making your journey more enriching and personal.

Practical Tips for Your Slovenian Adventure

When planning your custom travel packages to Slovenia, it is helpful to keep some practical tips in mind. Slovenia’s compact size makes it easy to traverse, but renting a car could provide the freedom to marvel at the country’s scenic routes.

English is widely spoken, especially in tourist areas, but learning a few basic Slovenian phrases can enhance interactions and offer a more authentic experience. As for the best time to visit, spring and early autumn provide mild temperatures and fewer crowds, perfect for exploring this remarkable country at your own pace.

Embrace the opportunity to travel differently. By customizing your journey, each trip becomes a reflection of your personality and interests. From the thrilling landscapes to the rich traditions and exquisite gastronomy, Slovenia promises an unforgettable adventure tailored just for you. Dive into the heart of Europe’s treasures and let Slovenia enchant you with its myriad of wonders.

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.

As a travel advisor, I recently booked a group of clients on a Goway tour in China following their paddleboat competition, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Christine and Tanya in the groups department were incredibly helpful and made the entire process seamless. Their support was greatly appreciated! The feedback from my clients was overwhelmingly positive, with particular praise for the local tour guides, who helped make the trip so memorable. Everyone had a wonderful time. Thank you, Christine, Tanya, and the Goway team, for taking such great care of my clients. I would happily recommend Goway and look forward to working with them again!customer

I wanna start off by saying that Farnaz our agent was excellent!!! she planned the whole experience from start to finish. We did not have to worry about one thing the entire trip. All the hotels were great. Our transfers from hotels to fairies to airports were all available and always on time. The excursions she planned for us were all top-notch. I was a little skeptical, but just finding GOWAY online stumbling across it. But I’m so glad I made the choice to use them. I hope they definitely using the company again and especially our agent Farnaz!!! Thank you do mych for a wonderful experience! Catherine

Our goal for this trip was a stress free honeymoon where we did not have to think about anything! Goway made that successful. Everything was planned and ready for us. We just had to show up. Brooke recommended fantastic accommodations that were in great locations, clean and comfortable. The tours were took with Thompson's Africa were incredible as well. Brooke was helpful throughout the entire booking process & we wouldn't have had such an incredible experience without her. We really loved our South African holiday and hope to travel there or other locations again with Goway.Taylor

October 9, 2026, was our 50th wedding anniversary. To celebrate, I wanted to take my bride to Europe for 50 days. Also, other than the flight over, I wanted to make the trip by train. I contacted Farnaz at Goway. The trip we planned ultimately extended to 60 days. It was absolutely flawless. We had great hotels, great tours. Even though this trip was complex and had a lot of moving parts, there were no problems. Farnaz and the folks at Goway done a great job. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them on any future tripsDaniel Graff

We had a fabulous Croatia vacation with a cruise from Dubrovnik to Split, followed by land tours on Split and Opatija. Lodging was always comfortable and conveniently located. Tours and activities were perfectly suited to our interests. We have used GoWay for 2 vacations and are currently working on another. Karen

We would like to thank our travel specialist, Bijal for all the planning and coordinating that was done to make our Tanzania trip as spectacular as it was from start to finish! Everything went so smoothly from our transfers, to our accommodations, to all of our tours! The people we came into contact with were exemplary! There were so many highlights on our trip from the animal sightings, to the balloon flight and champagne breakfast, to all the incredible scenery. Our accommodations were stunning! The level of service was remarkable and the locations were beyond our expectations. To think we would be having dinner and seeing the zebras and the elephants in the distance was amazing! Our tour guide/driver was very knowledgeable, friendly, passionate and had a keen eye for spotting animals in the distance. He made sure that we saw all the animals that we had hoped to see. it was truly a pleasure to spend the week with him. Thank you again to Bijal for all the work in making this once in a lifetime trip so exceptional!! We look forward to having Bijal help us plan our future trips.The Chadwicks and Williams
