Whether you're strolling through the Amazon rainforest, soaking up the sun on Copacabana Beach, or dancing to the lively beats of Rio's Carnival, custom vacation packages to Brazil cater to every wanderlust-driven heart.

Explore the Wild Heart of the Amazon

One of the bucket-list experiences you might consider when designing your custom travel package to Brazil is an expedition into the Amazon Rainforest. Often referred to as the "Lungs of the Earth," the Amazon provides an unparalleled opportunity to connect with nature at its most raw and beautiful. Guided tours allow you to immerse yourself in the dense rainforest, where exotic wildlife like toucans, sloths, and pink river dolphins thrive. By crafting trips to Brazil around the Amazon, you're embarking on an adventure that promises both awe and wonder.

Urban Adventures in Rio de Janeiro

No journey to Brazil would be complete without experiencing the vibrant city of Rio de Janeiro. Found on the southeast coast, this is a metropolis that pulses with life every hour of the day. From the towering statue of Christ the Redeemer, perched majestically on Corcovado Mountain, there's a vast array of sights to include in custom vacation packages to Brazil. The iconic beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema invite visitors to bask in the Atlantic sun and enjoy the cooling ocean waves. Meanwhile, the historic neighbourhood of Santa Teresa enchants with its bohemian charm and colourful street art.

Discover the Architectural Marvels of Brasília

For those with a fascination for modern architecture, Brasília offers a unique experience. As a meticulously planned city, the capital of Brazil stands as a testament to visionary urban design. Among the unmissable features are the stunning creations of architect Oscar Niemeyer, such as the Metropolitan Cathedral and the National Congress. Finding trips to Brazil that include Brasília in the itinerary allows travellers to appreciate this UNESCO World Heritage site's innovative blend of form and function.

The Rhythmic Allure of Salvador da Bahia

Salvador da Bahia is a city that ensures a deep, rhythmic encounter with Brazil’s Afro-Brazilian heritage. The sound of drums fills the evening air, particularly during the capoeira performances that display a captivating blend of martial arts and dance. The historic Pelourinho district, with its colonial architecture and pastel-coloured buildings, provides a charming setting for a cultural journey. By choosing custom travel packages to Brazil that include Salvador, you'll experience the soul of Brazil's cultural diversity.

Immerse in the Timeless Beauty of Iguazu Falls

Another natural wonder that commands a visit is the breathtaking Iguazu Falls. These mighty waterfalls, straddling the border between Brazil and Argentina, present a spectacular sight as 275 cascades tumble from impressive heights. As you wander along the viewing platforms, you'll feel the mist on your face and hear the thunderous roar, making this a truly immersive experience. Including Iguazu Falls in your custom vacation packages to Brazil ensures a dramatic encounter with one of the Earth's most powerful natural spectacles.

Flavourful Journeys Through Brazilian Cuisine

No trip to Brazil is complete without a culinary exploration. Brazilian cuisine is as diverse as its culture, with regional specialities offering delightful surprises. Imagine indulging in feijoada, a hearty black bean stew, or tantalizing your taste buds with the street food favourite, acarajé. For the adventurous, a sip of Brazil's favourite cocktail, the caipirinha, crafted with local cachaça, lime, and sugar, offers a refreshing signature taste. Custom vacation packages to Brazil frequently include gastronomic tours, inviting you to savour the country's rich culinary tapestry.

Create Your Perfect Brazilian Getaway

Whether you're seeking adventure, cultural immersion, or a serene escape, Brazil's vast array of experiences can be tailored to meet your travel dreams. With custom travel packages to Brazil, every itinerary becomes a personal story of discovery and wonder. Let the spirit of Brazil ignite your wanderlust and guide you through a land where every moment becomes a cherished memory.

Brazil is great to visit all year round, but December to March is ideal for experiencing the vibrant summer energy and major events like Carnaval. For those who want to search for wildlife in the Amazon & Pantanal, I would suggest April to October

Travellers must plan for diverse weather as the country ranges from tropical in the north (Amazon rainforest -with high humidity and rain) to temperate in the south, with hot, dry inland areas and a semi-arid Northeast region experiencing less rain.

Michael Keon from Goway Travel made our family trip to Greece memorable. Michael was a call or email away when planning our Greece trip and worked with us on our tight budget. Every detail was worked out for us before we got on the plane. Shout out to Nico, one of our drivers in Mykonos and all the great expeditions we went on. I highly recommend Goway Travel to plan your next vacation adventures. Jacqueline G. Jacqueline Garrett

I just returned from a wonderful trip to Sweden and Norway. I had the good fortune of working with Michael Keon who helped me plan and customize an interesting and balanced itinerary. All of the logistics went well, flights, transfers, hotels in great locations, travel between destinations, fjord safaris, cruises and guided tours with knowledgeable guides to inform and make the experience even more memorable. Michael was responsive to all of my questions and made it so easy to both prepare for and ultimately enjoy the trip. Looking forward to planning the next one!Gail

Just got back from a fabulous safari holiday in Tanzania. The trip was amazing! Exceeded my expectations. The people, the local team at Sense of Africa, the food, the accommodations (Karibu camps: Elephant Springs+Lion’s Paw and Sametu), the safari from the sky (hot air balloon)… I can keep going. Perfect way to celebrate my 50th bday. Thanks again to Alice Teramoto and Goway for making this happen! Truly a trip of a lifetimeKARISSA CARRASQUILLO

Working with Lisa Dachuk at Goway travel was splendid! She was responsive, careful, thorough and calm in ensuring that our 3-city honeymoon tour was customized to our needs. The ease, adventure, and beauty of the trip as facilitated by her is now a part of our honeymoon memory. Thank you for courteous and professional service! We enjoyed every bit of the trip (including Mt Etna erupting a week or two before our arrival to Catania)! The tours were absolutely excellent and the arrangements were precise to our needs. We would’ve considered (possibly) taking a boat from Malta to Catania, given the flight delays on ITA. YET, even the flight delays were handled with fast acting and professional support from Goway!!Ellen

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
