Pristine Natural Wonders

New Zealand is renowned for its dramatic landscapes, and exploring these natural wonders is a must. Begin your journey in the North Island with a visit to Rotorua, a geothermal paradise where you can witness bubbling mud pools and steaming geysers. For the adventurous, the Tongariro Alpine Crossing provides a challenging trek across one of the country’s most stunning volcanic landscapes. Further south, the South Island mesmerizes with the majestic Fiordland National Park, home to the iconic Milford Sound. Here, towering cliffs plunge into serene waters, offering a tranquil setting for kayaking or a leisurely cruise.

Cultural Enrichment

Beyond its scenic beauty, New Zealand is rich in cultural heritage. Immerse yourself in Māori traditions by visiting a marae, a communal and sacred meeting ground, to experience traditional customs and storytelling. In Rotorua, you can participate in a Māori cultural show, which often includes the famous haka dance. Understanding and respecting the indigenous culture is an integral part of any visit, providing deeper insight into the country’s identity.

Exquisite Culinary Delights

New Zealand’s culinary scene is as diverse as its landscapes. Sample fresh seafood such as bluff oysters in the coastal town of Bluff, or savour a traditional hangi feast, where food is cooked underground using heated rocks. The nation’s vineyards, particularly in regions like Marlborough and Central Otago, offer exceptional wine-tasting experiences, featuring world-renowned Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Noirs. Whether you're indulging in gourmet treats or enjoying a simple lamb dish, the flavours of New Zealand are sure to delight.

Adventure Awaits

For thrill-seekers, New Zealand is a playground of adventure. Queenstown, known as the adventure capital of the world, offers activities ranging from bungee jumping to skydiving, promising adrenaline-pumping experiences. Or, for a more laid-back adventure, take a scenic helicopter ride over the Southern Alps or embark on a Lord of the Rings tour to visit the film locations that brought Middle-earth to life.

Practical Travel Tips

To make the most of your New Zealand journey, consider the various travel packages that cater to a range of interests and budgets. Whether you prefer guided tours or independent travel, there are options for everyone. The best travel packages to New Zealand often include transportation and accommodation, simplifying your travel experience. Don’t forget to pack layers, as the weather can change swiftly, especially in the alpine regions.

The food in New Zealand is incredible, and New Zealanders are rightly proud of their paddock to plate cuisine. Almost everything is sustainably grown and processed, from lamb and seafood to vegetables and fruit.

The most amazing experience with Goway!! Phoebe did an amazing job planing the best trip to Paris, Florence and Venice with a great mix of relaxing and adventure days. Will be recommending to other travellers. Always someone available which is great when you are travelling in different time zones.

Our rep at GoWay, Kimberly, was fantastic from start to finish. She came up with the exact itinerary we wanted for Melbourne, Uluru, Cairns and Sydney, and assisted us with both international and domestic flights to help us get the best rates. Once we were on the trip, everything flowed seamlessly and every tour and transport was on time.Lisa Wildes

As a travel agent, this is not the first time I’ve chosen to work with Goway for organizing my clients’ trip, this time to Chile, and once again, the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Throughout the entire process, I could count on truly professional service from Susanna. My clients are very experienced travelers and requested a highly customized itinerary, including many unique experiences that are not typically included in standard tour programs. There were also several occasions when, on behalf of my clients, I requested changes to an already prepared itinerary. Susanna was consistently helpful, patient, understanding, and — just as importantly — incredibly kind and pleasant to work with. It was clear that she genuinely cared about creating the best possible experience for my clients. I’m also certain that much of the work she put in went well beyond standard hours and expectations. My clients returned absolutely delighted with their vacation, which is always the greatest confirmation of a job well done. Thank you, Susanna, for your dedication and exceptional support. And thank you, Goway, for another wonderful experience!Beata

Our family trip to Machu Picchu was absolutely incredible, thanks to RuthAnne Leonty. Every tour was thoughtfully organized and the guides were top-notch.

We booked our 3,week tour of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia and overall it was an excellent experience. I typically book my own travel, but travelling with a group and wanting tours in each destination made GoWay a great choice. We had great hotels and good guides in each city. I will say that our standout guide was Romeo Tran in Ho Chi Minh City. We spent a few days in the city, as well as an over night boat ride on the delta, and he was fantastic. We had alot of fun with him, and would highly recommend him in particular. Neil Braun

We booked a Viking cruise (Venice to Athens) through Goway Travel and it was fantastic! Our agent Kimberly was extremely helpful with air travel options, choosing excursions, and suggestions for pre and post cruise activities. Great communications and a really enjoyable experience.Stanley

We booked through Paula Williamson in the Toronto office, a Great Journeys New Zealand trip and it was fantastic! Although I had already scheduled a trip on The Ghan train in Australia, Paula helped me work it all as one huge 45 day trip including Bali Indonesia. My favorite was the New Zealand trip as I’d never been there before and the tour guide Toni was so spectacular and caring. I’m so pleased Goway was involved and I didn’t require any additional assistance once We'd started the first flight March 8. If we do another overseas trip, Goway will be involved.John

Michael Keon arranged our recent trip to Malta. I gave him a rough outline of what we were looking for and he responded quickly making great suggestions, offering alternatives as needed and booking everything. The hotel, excursions and transport he arranged were all exactly what we hoped for. We will be asking Michael to book our future European vacations. Mayssa Mirshak

Our first trip with Goway was a total joy. Shalini worked with me to plan a trip for 5 adults to Portugal. She is a gem! Always responded quickly and offered great suggestions for activities, worked with our preferences and created an ideal itinerary for a week in Porto and Lisbon. The tours were excellent with engaging local guides. The food tour in Lisbon was a highlight. Everything was top notch - flight schedule, hotels, activities, even the weather! Patricia
