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.

I just returned from escorting 34 people to China with four stops. We had hotels, local guides and extensive daily sightseeing. We had flights and we had high speed rail. There were numerous components that could have gone wrong but did not. I would like to highly recommend local guide Yoyo in Shanghai as well as Kevin in Xian. Two of the best guides I have ever had anywhere in the world. Suzette Castro and her team at the Goway Group Department did an excellent job helping me put this together. I was demanding, they were totally cooperative. It went well. I will be back. Amy Fink, CTC at Blue Ribbon Travel ArrangementsAmy in San Bruno, CA

I was looking at a month holiday in New Zealand and Australia and Natasa Jaric who is located in the Toronto area helped to make it happened by combining 2 already designed holidays in Oceania. From the beginning to the end, Natasa was "hands on" by explaining and providing everything I needed for our trip. During our trip, there were few bumps on the road that had nothing to do with Goway Travel as it was the airline company that cancelled our scheduled flight and created chaos. And the other problems (they were light) was because of the way hotels described their rooms. It should definitely be better worded! Db to me means double bed ... what does it mean to you? ;-) Anyhow, we ended up having two beds but with some arguments at one hotel only. The others accommodated us at no extra cost. I should also add that NZ and Aus. know how to treat tourists. I was particularly impressed with the transfers services offered by different companies both in NZ and Aus. Wow! No waiting at the airports, hotels or terminals. They were there ready to pick us up and drive us where ever we needed to be! Well done!!! It's the kind of service that I will have a hard time not to use again as it comes with a $ sign but definitely worth spending it! :-). I received a very good response from the "Help office" when the flight was cancelled and other inquiries I had made. Very good service once again. I live quite a few experiences during that month and all thanks need to go to Natasa and her team. So Natasa: Thank you very very much for a very well organized travel! Carole Ouellet

This was my first time planning a tour wth Goway Travel. I am truly delighted with the professionalism and personal relationship I had with the Goway Travel consultant Christine. She gave attention to every details I requested to curate my tour to Hong Kong and Bali. She addressed all my needs, answered thoroughly my questions and concerns. She is a touch of class in every respect. I will definitely recommend Goway Travel group. Excellent Hotels. Perfect guides in both countries. LE Asia Tour

Ingrid did a phenomenal job creating a 22 day trip beginning in with 3 days in Turkey, that included a Turkish Bath and a private tour of the mosques, we then took a 10 day cruise through the Mediterranean, Greece, Croatia, plus a couple of other stops. We got off the cruise in Ravenna Italy our transportation was spot on picking us up (I would have to stay all of our transportation was impressive, always there, on time, very helpful) we traveled from Ravenna to Venice where we stayed for two nights. Venice is the only place we had a hiccup, we weren't sure if someone was meeting us at our Hotel to take us to the water taxi to get to the train station, we figured it out, made the train and all was good. Traveled to Florence, had the best time there with one of our most favorite excusions, stayed in Florence for two nights and then completed our trip with three nights in Rome. Rome is BUSY, I was not prepared for that but should of expected it. This is our second big trip planning through Goway Travel, I can not recommend enough, they are so detailed and take care of everything you need and everything you didn't know you needed.
