My journey in this amazing career began when I saw a couple of passengers who were escorted by a tour guide. It was exciting as they were sharing joyful moments from their trip to the Ecuadorian Amazon Rainforest, and the excitement in their expressions was unforgettable. In that moment, I realized that I wanted to work in the tourism industry. In Ecuador, I worked with airlines and cruise companies, where I had the opportunity to learn in depth about the Galapagos Islands, the Amazon rainforest, and land services across the Ecuadorian mainland. The experience that I have been developing during this time has opened the door for me to join Goway Travel. I’ve travelled throughout South America, beginning in Ecuador and continuing through Peru, then crossing into Chile. I also visited Cartagena to experience the Caribbean side and learn more about its vibrant culture and warm people. In Central America, I’ve had the chance to explore Costa Rica, and its spectacular Pura Vida spirit has truly captured a special place in my heart. I’m delighted to assist my clients and share my travel spirit with every journey I design. Let’s work together to create an unforgettable experience for your guests.

My passion for travel goes far beyond visiting new destinations to learn about different cultures, connect with local traditions, and experience the authentic spirit of each place. One of my favourite parts of every journey is enjoying the landscapes, tasting local food and beverages; those experiences create memories I’ll carry with me for a lifetime. I love talking with people to learn about who they are, what they enjoy, and what excites them about travel. Connecting on a personal level allows me to create journeys that feel unique and unforgettable.

Two of my favourite trips have been to Chile and Costa Rica. When I visited Chile, I decided to travel solo. I wanted to experience what it’s like to explore on my own and learn how to take care of myself while travelling. It turned into an unforgettable adventure. I explored Santiago, Viña del Mar, Valparaíso, Puerto Montt, Puerto Varas, and San José de Maipo. I love looking back at my travel photos, and now I relive those moments when I share my experiences with my clients. My second amazing trip was to Costa Rica. I explored Alajuela, La Fortuna, Monteverde, Manuel Antonio, and Corcovado National Park. It was simply spectacular to see how such a small country has become a sustainable Pura Vida paradise. The rainforest, the jungle, the landscapes, and the incredible activities offered there go far beyond what most travellers could ever dream of.

As a travel agent, it was very easy to work with Goway. They were very responsive, especially Osvaldo Gonzalez, even when the client wanted to make in-destination changes a day or two prior. My clients absolutely enjoyed everything about their trip to Costa Rica - they specifically mentioned that all the drivers and guides they had were excellent, friendly, and knowledgeable. I would not hesitate to use Goway again for a custom trip to Costa Rica. Shawna Woods Roy

We, three couples, all enjoyed our time in Peru, despite the small amount of time we had, and the fact one person had injury while on the cruise prior to arriving in Lima. We did want to experience Machu Picchu without spending as many days as others usually do, since we had been traveling prior to that already. Kajal at Goway was able to tailor a well packed three-day private tour for our small group of six. Every detail, from the moment we got off the cruise ship, to Cusco, to Machu Picchu, and back to Lima airport hotel, was well taken care of. Kajal was very efficient in helping with the requested itinerary, and in staying on desired budget, as well answered all questions in timely fashion. We were able to accomplish what we were not sure if possible, all thanks to Kajal at Goway. Our experience in Peru was very positive. We felt the tours organized by Goway had enabled us to have great and impressive exposure to Peruvian culture and important historical sights - all 31 hours in 3 days!!! Condor Travel in Peru took care of us every step of the way. Every person we came across was very courteous, willing, and helpful. Help was always there and questions answered quickly via Whatsapp. All in all a great and positive experience we would highly recommend.KM

I want to personally thank my Travel Agent Alice Teramoto who organized two spectacular trips for me! One to Australia and most recently Vietnam and Cambodia. She nailed it! I can’t express my gratitude enough! Both trips were flawless and hassle free! Every experience exceeded my expectations! I spent my 60th Birthday in Vietnam on the Lunar New Year which was a complete thrill! I highly recommend Alice and will definitely book with her again soon! Thanks so much Alice ♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Avril

Mary G. was an absolute pleasure to work with. I partner with Goway often for Europe and typically have my go to rep, so stepping outside of that for a New Zealand itinerary had me a little unsure at first. That hesitation quickly disappeared. Mary stepped in with confidence, handled all of my moving pieces with ease, and truly understood the level of detail I needed to take care of my clients. She delivered a beautifully curated itinerary that exceeded expectations, and most importantly, my clients had an incredible experience in New Zealand. I’m so grateful to have her as a resource and look forward to working together again.Nichole Pierce

Joanna was amazing!!! She was able to set up a ten day trip for me in Sydney in a matter of a couple of weeks. All accommodation and tours were amazing and the 24 hour help center was great and where able to call up the tour company and have them come and still pick be up when I had a mixup with the reservation. Would definitely recommend Goway to any friends and family and will definitely be using them again.Erica Wolff

I cannot sing Erin’s praises enough! She planned an action-packed two-week New Zealand itinerary that hit every single stop on our bucket list. Every experience was truly first-class and luxurious. While I found myself being price-conscious initially, once I saw the incredible quality of the experiences she curated, I knew it was going to be the trip of a lifetime. A huge thank you to Erin and Go Way Travel for making my 50th birthday so epic. We’ll definitely be reaching out for our next big adventure!Michelle

This was my second time working with Taha Colombowala, Group Specialist. Our journey to Ghana was top notch! 🇬🇭 The accommodations, curated tours, and coordination with the team on the ground made the this trip quite amazing. Taha was very supportive throughout the entire process. Goway makes me look like a superstar with my clients!! I am already planning new itineraries. Denise Watkins

I booked this trip to Adelaide with Goway, after using them before when we explored the 'big' sites of Australia. This time, we went to Adelaide to go to three of the top wine growing areas for wine tastings. We were a small group of 4 people. It was made better as the vendor used Small Batch Wine Tours for all of our excursions. They were fantastic making us the only travelers on these tours. Matthew, the owner, even adjusted our wineries on the last day to go to different place. This place totally marked off everything we were looking for in wine. Ended up buying a couple of bottles. Between Goway setting it up and Small Batch Wine Tours running the actual tours we had a beautiful and seamless trip. not applicable
