Venture into Timeless Petra

Petra, famously known as the 'Rose City', is a marvel that combines human ingenuity with nature’s artistry. Walking through the narrow gorge of the Siq, anticipation builds as you approach the iconic Treasury, revealed like a hidden jewel bathed in sunlight. As one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, Petra offers more than just its main monuments; intricate carvings and rock-cut structures narrate tales of ancient civilizations. Opt for personalized tours of Jordan for a deeper understanding of Petra’s secrets, guided by experts who bring history to life in a private, enriching manner.

Unwind by the Dead Sea

The Dead Sea, known for its mineral-rich waters and therapeutic mud, offers a serene escape from everyday hectic life. Situated at the lowest point on Earth, this natural wonder provides unmatched private Jordan trips that focus on wellness and relaxation. Enjoy floating on the water's surface, a unique experience that effortlessly supports your body, leaving you refreshed and rejuvenated. Local private tours of Jordan often include visits to luxurious spa resorts along its shores, offering indulgent treatments rooted in ancient wellness traditions.

Discover the Desert Landscapes of Wadi Rum

For those yearning for adventure, Wadi Rum, with its vast desert landscapes and dramatic rock formations, beckons explorers to engage in exciting private experiences in Jordan. Known as the 'Valley of the Moon', Wadi Rum’s colossal red dunes and narrow gorges create an unearthly charm. By day, traverse the sands on a camel or 4x4, and by night, gaze at the star-studded sky from a Bedouin camp, experiencing traditional Jordanian hospitality. Personal guides enrich your journey with stories connected to this majestic terrain, offering exclusive insights into its past and present.

Engage with Jordan’s Cultural Tapestry

Jordan’s vibrant culture is a tapestry woven with ancient traditions and modern influences. From bustling souks to peaceful mosques, the capital city of Amman presents private experiences where history and contemporary life converge seamlessly. Explore the historic Citadel, browse through the Rainbow Street's artisanal shops, or savour street food like falafel and kunafa. Each taste tells a story, each interaction an opportunity to connect deeply with Jordan’s essence.

Savor Jordanian Cuisine

Food in Jordan is a celebration of flavours and tradition. Embark on a culinary journey with tours of Jordan that highlight its diverse gastronomy. Relish dishes such as mansaf, a fragrant offering of lamb cooked in fermented yogurt, which reflects the nation’s hospitable spirit. These culinary tours are often paired with hands-on experiences, like cooking classes within local homes or restaurants, providing an intimate glimpse into the heart of Jordanian culture.

Practical Travel Tips for Jordan

  • Best Time to Visit: Spring (March to May) and Autumn (September to November) are perfect, with pleasant weather for exploring.
  • Dress Code: Modest dressing is advisable, especially in rural areas, showing respect for local customs.
  • Currency: The Jordanian dinar (JOD) is the local currency. Credit cards are widely accepted, but carrying cash is handy for smaller vendors.

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 have had Melissa Moses plan our trips for us for quite a few years. She always finds interesting sights for us to see, the hotels are always beautiful and everything runs perfectly. Can't wait to get started on the next adventure. Andrea Jones

Just returned from a two week trip to Prague, Vienna and Budapest booked by Michael Keon at Goway This was our second trip booked with Michael Hotels were all excellent, in great locations, transfers to and from airports went without a hitch and train travel was exactly as planned. As we worked through all the details of planning the trip, he responded to lib questions promptly, making finalizing the trip very easy I would highly recommend him as a travel agent, and we will be using him again Kevin Bourke

Katie's knowledge and support were the primary reason the trip worked so well. Everything went smoothly, and the vacation could not have been any better. The hotels were wonderful, the two tours we took went well, and there were no issues with flights or transfers. GERAR

We have used Goway Travel previously, and they are the best. Our travel specialist, Shalini Thakur, designed our trip to Italy exactly the way we wanted. They make traveling so low-stress. The itinerary is very detailed, giving you plenty of time to review prior to your trip. We have drivers that meet us at the airport and take us to and from all stops on our trip. No dealing with trains and buses and taxis and dragging your luggage all over. They have great local guides for excursions, most in small groups of 10 or less. The trip is so much more meaningful with a knowledgeable guide to explain the history. Our accommodations are always centrally located to our excursions, most of the time we are picked up at our hotel. We like to keep busy on our trips, but Goway always plans a great balance that gives us time to rest a little after late nights or long days, so you don't get exhausted, which is nice as we are all in our late 60's. Although we have never needed to use it, it gives peace of mind knowing Goway has 24/7 emergency contacts if you need anything. We will definitely be contacting Shalini and Goway for our future trips. David Merrifield

Big shout out to Melissa-Lee and her team at Goway. She crafted a personal adventure through Peru. We gave her our must see places and she nailed it. The team on the ground was exceptional. The guides were all very knowledgeable. The hotels were all chosen carefully and exceeded our expectations. Could not have asked for a better tour. We will definitely use them again.Joanne

I began planning my Italy vacation with Avery more than a year before we traveled, and I want to start by giving her the recognition she deserves. Avery did an exceptional job planning this trip. From the beginning, I had a very clear vision of what I wanted to experience in Italy, and she listened carefully and captured it. The destinations, hotels, tours, transportation and overall flow of the trip were thoughtfully planned. Aside from three specific issues that I will address, everything came together extremely well. One of the things I appreciated most was the attention to logistics. The hotels were conveniently located, our tour meeting points were generally close to our accommodations, and the routing between cities made sense. Those details may seem small during the planning process, but once you are actually traveling through multiple cities, they make an enormous difference. I especially appreciated the meet and greet services and arranged transfers because they removed much of the stress that comes with arriving somewhere unfamiliar. I did not have to constantly worry about where to go, how to get there or who I was supposed to meet. I was able to enjoy my vacation instead of managing the logistics of my vacation. The people Avery arranged for us to work with in Italy were also excellent overall. Our drivers, guides and local representatives were professional, pleasant and easy to communicate with. We stayed at five hotels, and with the exception of Dharma Luxury Hotel in Rome, the other four were excellent. I loved them and would not change those selections. From a travel planning perspective, I would give Avery more than five stars. She listened, understood what I wanted and created the Italy experience I had envisioned. I would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to others. There were, however, three specific issues during the trip that I believe deserve attention. These involved the third-party operator used for our Siena, San Gimignano and Chianti tour, our experience at Dharma Luxury Hotel in Rome, and the response from Goway’s emergency travel support. I want to separate these concerns from my experience with Avery because I do not believe they reflect the quality of the work she did planning our vacation. My recommendations are therefore directed toward strengthening the third-party services surrounding the travel experience. I recommend that Goway review the operator used for the Siena, San Gimignano and Chianti tour, reconsider Dharma Luxury Hotel based on the maintenance and customer service issues I experienced and conduct a formal review of its emergency support provider, including whether the response to my request complied with the provider’s contractual service levels. Overall, this was an incredible Italy vacation, and Avery deserves tremendous credit for making it happen. Planning an excellent vacation is important, and she accomplished that. At the same time, what happens when something does not go according to plan is also an important part of the travel experience. The three problems I encountered were specific and identifiable, and addressing those areas would make an already excellent travel planning experience significantly stronger.S Moolah

Katie our travel agent planned a wonderful trip for us. Everything was taken care of and we didn’t have to worry about anything. I would highly recommend Go Way travel when planning a trip. 49ergirl

I worked with Maria S. from Goway Travel to build a tailored trip to the Azores and mainland Portugal. Maria provided excellent, responsive and patient service, never pressured me into making decisions, offered multiple options for managing pricing, answered my many questions clearly and fully, and always met the timelines she would set to get back to me. Once I was on my trip, Maria checked in several times even though there was an operator on the ground at my destination; she even resolved a minor mix-up with one of my hotels and arranged for a special surprise on my birthday. I cannot speak highly enough of Maria's professionalism, follow-through, positivity, attention to detail and responsiveness. I highly recommend Goway and Maria for your travel plans, and will definitely use this company again for my future travels. Thank you so much for making my trip to Portugal so memorable, Maria!

Extremely delighted we took this trip to Bali with Goway. Ameet was fantastic. He helped me save on my flights and also guided me on the right hotel decisions. Extremely Charming and always a pleasure to chat to. We enjoyed the Komodo islands a lot thanks to our specialist who made the recommendation. Hid guidance on the places and restaurants was spot on and we and my gf enjoyed the trip so much. We will consider using Goway and Ameet for our Honeymoon as well.Garth Cutos
