What do Goway's travellers say?
“Farnaz Bagheri - Specialist”
We decided to go to France for 3 weeks in September and knew we needed help planning the trip (we made this decision in August so a very short time frame. We had traveled with Goway a few years ago and were hoping they could help. Our specialist, Farnaz Bagheri, was fantastic, she listened to what we wanted to do and where we wanted to go. She literally arranged everything with her French partners. The guides and drivers were wonderful the accommodations were excellent. Communication was easy from the first discussion to the time we got home. Farnaz planned for us an exceptional trip in a very short time frame. Promise next trip we will contact Goway much earlier. Thanks again
Sue Blake“50th Anniversary trip to Europe”
October 9, 2026, was our 50th wedding anniversary. To celebrate, I wanted to take my bride to Europe for 50 days. Also, other than the flight over, I wanted to make the trip by train. I contacted Farnaz at Goway. The trip we planned ultimately extended to 60 days. It was absolutely flawless. We had great hotels, great tours. Even though this trip was complex and had a lot of moving parts, there were no problems. Farnaz and the folks at Goway done a great job. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them on any future trips
Daniel Graff“Fantastic Croatia experience. ”
We had a fabulous Croatia vacation with a cruise from Dubrovnik to Split, followed by land tours on Split and Opatija. Lodging was always comfortable and conveniently located. Tours and activities were perfectly suited to our interests. We have used GoWay for 2 vacations and are currently working on another.
Karen“Great experience planning our Greece Vacation”
We recently worked with Jacqueline to plan our trip to Greece and had a wonderful experience. We made several revisions to our itinerary and Jacqueline was patient, understanding and prompt in responding to our needs. In addition to the specific tours she booked, she provided extra options and local suggestions for each place we visited in Greece. Her attention to detail and responsiveness made our trip incredibly memorable.
Mark Mendell“Italy Trip to Rome and the Amalfy Coast”
Our GoWay tour representative, Michael Keon, was on top of all of our concerns and questions in a professional manner and we look forward to working with him in the future. Michael was very easy to work with and treated us like family.
Thomas“Our travel agent”
Our travel agent, Melissa Moses, created the perfect itinerary for our recent holiday to Portugal. Melissa had also planned our previous trip to England/Scotland. We have a great deal of confidence in her ability as she really listens to what we are looking for and she caters the plans according to our comfort levels and interests.
customer“Jacqueline F”
Jacqueline F. made our trip exceptional. Everything she planned or reserved worked out as it was supposed to. Croatia was amazing and I feel we were able to explore a lot of it because of Jacqueline.
Allen“Fabulous Italy and Greece”
This was the first time we had utilized Goway. We wanted a custom itinerary for a 3 week Italy, Athens and Greek Island adventure. Edwina Brislane was receptive to our goals for the trip, had helpful suggestions and reacted well to our requested revisions. Lisa Dachuk helped "tie a ribbon" on the trip and ensured we had considered all aspects of the experience. Lisa dealt quickly with a couple of requests while on the trip and celebrated a successful trip with us.
We enjoyed working with both Edwina and Lisa. Their knowledge and enthusiasm contributed to our very memorable trip.
Dan & Gail“Greece Islands and Inland”
I recently traveled to Greece with friends, and our entire experience was exceptional thanks to the planning support we received from Avery at GoWay. Every part of our itinerary was organized with care, accuracy, and great attention to detail.
Our accommodations — Hera Hotel Athens and Sofitel Athens Airport — were comfortable, well‑located, and exactly what we needed. All airfares from Calgary and the multiple transfers (airport to city centre, city centre to Piraeus Port, and back again) were perfectly coordinated and made the trip completely stress‑free.
The 7‑night Idyllic Aegean Cruise was a major highlight. It was beautifully arranged and gave us an unforgettable way to explore the islands. Our excursions were equally impressive:
Skip‑the‑Line Acropolis & Acropolis Museum timed entry, which made sightseeing smooth and efficient
Classical Greece: Olympia, Delphi & Meteora, a breathtaking and well‑paced journey through some of Greece’s most iconic historical sites
Avery was consistently responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive throughout the planning process. Every confirmation, transfer, and timing detail was handled flawlessly, allowing us to simply enjoy the trip without worrying about logistics.
I highly recommend GoWay Travel — and especially Avery — for anyone planning a trip to Greece. This was one of the best travel experiences I’ve had, thanks to their outstanding service and organization.
Lorraine“Great Irish experience.”
My wife and I have just returned from our 5th trip with Goway. Once again everything ran smoothly from first day to last. This trip was the 9 day all Ireland tour which covered both north & south Ireland. The tour was operated by Rabbies tours whom we used in Scotland and the 16 passenger van only had 6 passengers including us.Other than a couple of days the weather was prety good although the wind did get a bit wild. The pub food was delicious & i got a taste for real Guiness. We spent a few extra days in Dublin and found it very expensive, the excange rate didn't help. Our travel consultant Jaqueline personalised the trip and was very helpful.

Best Time To Visit
Czechia is a year-round destination, each season offering its own unique charms.
Spring (April to June) is ideal for exploring blooming gardens and castles, with mild temperatures and fewer crowds. It’s a great time for peaceful walks through Prague’s historic streets or a getaway to the countryside.
Summer (July to August) brings lively festivals, long sunny days, and open-air concerts. It’s perfect for cultural events and exploring the outdoors, though popular tourist spots like Prague can get crowded.
Wine lovers appreciate fall (September to October) for its harvest festivals and colourful vineyard views. The crisp air and vibrant foliage also make it an ideal time for hiking and photography.
Winter (November to February) transforms towns into magical snow-dusted scenes, with festive Christmas markets, mulled wine, and glowing holiday lights. Whether you're wandering a medieval square or cozying up in a mountain resort, Czechia at this time of year is a picturesque winter wonderland.
Let us help you choose the perfect season for your Czechia adventure.
What do the experts say?
Prague and the surrounding Bohemian lands were significantly influenced by Austria’s Habsburg dynasty. There are several medieval gems in the country but Prague is the true pinnacle. It's an incredible city with so much culture and history
When visiting Prague, I would suggest the restaurant Pivovarsky Klub Benedict for traditional Czech food like pork knuckle and many other dishes
I love how well preserved the historical towns are. Many escaped the ravages of war and still have their original architecture, creating a dreamy, fairy-tale-like landscape of impressive castles and winding cobblestone streets
Spa culture in the Czech Republic dates back to the 14th century and many towns preserve their old-world architecture, giving you a serene and picturesque setting. My top picks include Karlovy Vary, Mariánské Lázně and Františkovy Lázně.
