Exploring the Cultural Richness

Stepping into Sri Lanka feels like stepping into a storybook. Begin your journey in the historic city of Kandy, home to the Temple of the Tooth Relic. This sacred Buddhist site houses a relic believed to be the tooth of Buddha himself. As you listen to the rhythmic chants of the monks, you'll be enveloped in serenity, an experience deeply rooted in Sri Lanka's spiritual fabric.

Don't miss the chance to wander through the ancient ruins of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa. These cities are replete with stupas, sculptures, and carvings that narrate tales of a bygone era. Opting for custom vacation packages to Sri Lanka allows you to explore these sites at your own pace, guided by insights into their historical significance.

The Call of the Wild

Lovers of the natural world will find their haven in Sri Lanka's national parks. Yala National Park promises exhilarating encounters with the island's diverse wildlife. Here, elephants roam freely, leopards stealthily tread through the underbrush, and the birdlife offers a symphony of colours and sounds.

For a more serene experience, head to the Minneriya National Park during the dry season. Witness the majestic gathering of Asian elephants near the Minneriya Tank, a sight that resonates deeply with the essence of Sri Lanka vacations that are unmarred by the bustling crowds.

Beaches that Breathe Tranquillity

When it's time to unwind, the coastal gems of Sri Lanka will not disappoint. Galle, with its UNESCO World Heritage-listed fort, offers a romantic blend of Dutch colonial architecture, quaint cafes, and azure waters. The coastal town of Mirissa is a dream spot for rejuvenation, whether lounging by palm-fringed beaches or embarking on whale-watching expeditions.

For those with a penchant for surfing, Arugam Bay awaits with its challenging waves and a vibrant beach culture. Each beach tells a different story, and custom travel packages can cater to both the thrill-seeker and the peace-loving traveler.

A Gastronomic Journey

No journey is complete without indulging in a country’s culinary delights, and Sri Lanka is no exception. Relish the explosion of flavours in a traditional rice and curry meal, where spices blend in a dance of taste and aroma. Find solace in a steaming cup of Ceylon tea at a hillside plantation in Nuwara Eliya, fondly known as "Little England" for its cool climate and verdant landscapes.

From street food to gourmet dining, the island's cuisine promises to be a feast for the senses, making it a must-feature in Sri Lanka vacations that seek to satisfy the palate alongside the soul.

Crafting Your Ideal Escape

Whether you’re drawn to the island's ancient history, its lush sanctuaries, or its sun-kissed coasts, the allure of custom vacation packages to Sri Lanka is the freedom they afford. Tailor your journey to reflect your unique interests, ensuring that your experiences resonate personally and deeply.

Unlock the treasures of Sri Lanka at your own pace, and let this island paradise captivate your heart and spirit. From intimate cultural encounters to grand natural spectacles, your Sri Lankan sojourn awaits to inspire exploration and enrich the narrative of your travels.

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.

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
