The Allure of Iceland's Landscape

Begin your journey with an exploration of Iceland's breathtaking landscapes. From towering geysers and cascading waterfalls to lush green valleys and volcanic craters, the Icelandic scenery is a testament to the planet's geological wonders. A private tour allows you to traverse the Golden Circle at your own pace, where highlights include the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall and the serene Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site rich with cultural history and geological significance.

Geysers and Glaciers: Nature's Dramatic Display

Witnessing the Strokkur geyser erupt every few minutes is a magical experience, best enjoyed without the bustling crowds. And for those intrigued by ice, glacier tours offer a rare chance to walk on Europe's largest glacier, Vatnajökull. Private guides ensure your safety and enhance your experience with insightful stories about the glacier's formation and ongoing environmental changes.

An Exclusive Dive into Icelandic Culture

The cultural tapestry of Iceland is as rich and varied as its landscape. Private experiences let you delve deeper into the local way of life, offering unique insights that are often missed by larger groups. Visit traditional Icelandic farms, where you can savor homemade delicacies and learn about the country's deep-rooted agricultural traditions. Alternatively, opt for a private guided history walk through Reykjavík's charming streets to unearth the vibrant tales of Viking settlements and modern Icelandic life.

Savouring Iceland: A Culinary Adventure

A journey through Iceland would be incomplete without indulging in its culinary delights. Private food tours offer a chance to taste the land's bounty, from succulent lamb and freshly caught seafood to the famous Icelandic skyr. Your culinary journey can be customized to include visits to local breweries for a taste of Iceland’s craft beers or a private cooking class where you can learn to prepare traditional dishes.

The Northern Lights: A Private Spectacle

One of the greatest treasures of Icelandic winters is the Northern Lights' ethereal dance. Viewing these vibrant auroras in solitude is truly an awe-inspiring experience. Opt for private tours that take you far from the city's artificial lights, maximizing your chances of witnessing this incredible natural phenomenon. Experienced guides know the best spots and times, sharing tales and scientific explanations while ensuring a cozy experience with hot drinks and warm blankets.

Relaxation and Rejuvenation

Beyond the adventures, Iceland also offers tranquility and relaxation. Immerse yourself in the geothermal wonders of Iceland's hot springs with a Iceland travel package designed for ultimate relaxation. Natural hot springs like the Blue Lagoon provide a luxurious escape surrounded by stunning volcanic landscapes. Choose a private visit to enjoy the serene waters without interruption, a perfect way to rejuvenate after a day of exploration.

Crafting Your Ideal Iceland Adventure

Enhancing your Icelandic experience through Iceland private tours allows for tailored itineraries that cater specifically to your interests and pace. Whether it’s horseback riding across lava fields, hiking into the heart of Icelandic fjords, or exploring the remote Westfjords where wildlife abounds, your private guide shapes each adventure to ensure maximum enjoyment and personal connection with the land.

In Iceland, every path leads to discovery. A personalized journey through this land of contrasts promises not just to see, but to truly experience the hidden gem that is Iceland. Embrace the adventure, delve into the culture, and let the land's enchantment unfold in your own unique Icelandic story.

Globetrotters should visit Iceland twice in their lifetime. Once in summer and another time in Winter. The scenery is very different. You also get to see the puffins in the summer and Northern Lights in the winter

Iceland has a big New Year's celebration where many people flock to the streets, gather around bonfires, enjoy fireworks and party in pubs and bars. Try Hákarl, fermented shark if you dare

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas
