Jerusalem: A Tapestry of Time

Jerusalem, a city that stands as a testament to centuries of diverse cultures and faiths, offers an experience like none other. In the heart of the city lies the Old City, a UNESCO World Heritage site where history comes alive with every step. Within its ancient walls, travellers can explore religious sites that hold deep significance to Christian, Jewish, and Muslim faiths; the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and Dome of the Rock each pull at the roots of belief.

Creating custom holiday trips to Israel provides the flexibility to dive deep into Jerusalem’s myriad hidden corners, perhaps joining a specialized tour that unveils less-visited spots—local markets overflowing with spices, and quaint streets echoing with tales of the past. Each turn of this city brings revelations as timeless as they are contemporary.

The Enigma of the Dead Sea

A short journey east leads you to the mesmerizing Dead Sea, an escape from the ordinary. Known for its mineral-rich waters that allow you to float effortlessly, this natural wonder is not just a place for relaxation but also a hub of rejuvenation. The mud, renowned for its healing properties, attracts health enthusiasts from around the globe, transforming their excursions into a blend of nature and wellness.

Custom travel packages to Israel offer travellers the chance to engage with nature’s bounty, ensuring their itinerary is tailored to absorb the full spectrum of unique experiences, from secluded beachside meditations to exhilarating off-road escapades in the surrounding desert landscapes.

The Vibrant Pulse of Tel Aviv

For those seeking a dynamic contrast to the sacred serenity of Jerusalem, Tel Aviv offers a vibrant urban life that hums with the rhythm of discovery and creativity. This city is a beacon of modernity, where art and innovation flourish amidst historic backdrops. Whether you're drawn to the eclectic nightlife, bustling Carmel Market, or the Bauhaus architecture of the White City, Tel Aviv promises a lively addition to any tour of Israel.

With custom travel packages, visitors can thread seamlessly from the tranquillity of a sunset beach stroll to the pulse of an urban beat, carving their path through Tel Aviv’s melting pot of cultures and lifestyles.

The Culinary Journeys

Israel’s culinary scene is a flavorful symphony that combines fresh ingredients with diverse influences. From the aromatic hum of spices in traditional shakshuka to the sweet kiss of a freshly baked babka, your taste buds are in for a feast.

Consider adding a food tour to your custom holiday trip to Israel. These tours of Israel allow enthusiasts to savour local delicacies and engage directly with vendors at bustling food markets. Such experiences deepen your connection with the place, transforming meals into stories of heritage and innovation.

Cultural and Historical Wonders

Beyond its cities, Israel’s landscapes ripple with layers of history and natural beauty. Venture to the north, where the Galilee’s rolling hills and verdant valleys provide a serene backdrop to outdoor adventures. Dip into the azure waters of the Sea of Galilee or explore archaeological treasures that pepper the countryside.

Custom holiday trips to Israel often incorporate visits to these pivotal sites, allowing you to bask in the majesty of nature while appreciating the rich tapestry of history that frames every corner of the land.

In the south, the stark yet stunning Negev Desert unfurls like an artist’s canvas, inviting exploration and reflection. Whether hiking Ramon Crater or experiencing traditional Bedouin hospitality under a starlit sky, the desert offers an unexpected yet captivating slice of Israel.

Your Israel Adventure Awaits

Embarking on tours of Israel promises a journey teeming with memorable adventures and soulful encounters. Opting for custom travel packages ensures your experience is as unique as your imagination; every itinerary can be crafted around personal interests, whether it's history, culture, spirituality, or adventure.

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.

Our trip to Japan was great. All our Goway arrangements preformed like clockwork and the guides for the tours were wonderful. Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji was in total fog but at least the lunch was very good and so was the drum solo, also our tour guide kept our spirits up ( she was the best). Taryn picked hotels that were very convenient to the meeting point of our tours which was much appreciated and organized all aspects of our trip perfectly. So from our airport pickup to our last day in Tokyo everything ran very smoothly so we have used Goway before and will certainly use it again and reccommend Goway to others.JW

Mary was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was incredibly responsive and quick to assist with every update and change my clients made throughout the planning process. Her expertise was invaluable, from recommending the perfect resorts to advising on the best way to travel between the islands. My clients loved every moment of their trip, especially their resort stays and overwater bungalow experiences. As this was their honeymoon, creating a seamless and memorable journey was so important, and Mary exceeded expectations. They rated their experience a 5 out of 5 and could not have been happier. Thank you, Mary, for your outstanding support and attention to detail. I truly appreciated your partnership and would not hesitate to work with you again for future South Pacific Island bookings.

We had an exceptional experience with Goway Travel on our recent trip to Africa. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed, which made the entire journey stress-free. The recommendations on where to go and what to do were absolutely fantastic! Each stop felt perfectly curated and exceeded our expectations. It was clear that Goway truly understands the destinations they offer and knows how to create a memorable, well-balanced itinerary. A special thank you to our travel consultant, Bijal, who was outstanding throughout the entire process. Bijal was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive while we prepared for the trip, ensuring that all our questions were answered and that every detail was taken care of. Their guidance made a big difference in building our confidence and excitement leading up to the trip. I would highly recommend Goway Travel to anyone looking for a seamless, expertly planned travel experience. We will definitely be using them again for our future adventures! Harjit C

Elisa planned our trip. We were met at the airport by Paul who drove us to Arusha. Adam, our guide and driver was with us the whole trip and was very knowledgeable about the country and the animals & birds we encountered. Accommodations were excellent, meals were delicious and the Tanzanian people we met at each location were so kind and welcoming. A wonderful trip.pat vickers

We had a wonderful trip to Peru for 11 days organized by Goway. Overall the trip was great, we loved our guides throughout, some of the hotels were truly amazing and it was helpful having everything organized and having a point person to ask questions and check in while we were there. Some main highlights were: 1) Machu Picchu- I am so glad we did two tours, because the weather was perfect for views, but also had an opportunity to see Machu Picchu more in depth with a knowledgeable and friendly guide and had a little extra time in Aguas Calientes to shop, explore and even visit the butterfly garden and do some birdwatching. 2) Cusco especially the Hotel Aranwa Cusco. The hotel was incredible, excellent service, modern updates, it was a true highlight of the trip. Cusco itself was also a highlight, loved our half day tour, plus getting ideas for our guide on what else to see in our free time and where to eat. 3) Lima- Aloft Miraflores was another highlight, very modern, nice pool and the best breakfast out of the hotels we stayed in. The location in Miraflores was also perfect, as there were plenty of restaurants, cafes and attractions nearby. 4) Everyone at Condor was great, from ensuring we had all our documents, tickets and itinerary to even stepping in to get water and agua Florida when we were feeling the altitude sickness the first hours in Cusco. Most of our rides and transfers were very comfortable and made the trip run smooth through all the different locations. I have been telling my friends and family how wonderful the experience with Goway has been for our Peru adventure. Eric Paul Schatzel
