The Enchanting Castles of Romania

Begin your journey with a visit to Romania's iconic castles, each offering a unique tale from the pages of history. Bran Castle, often associated with the Dracula legend, stands as a dramatic silhouette against the misty Carpathians. Tour its gothic chambers and let your imagination wander through centuries of folklore and mystery. Another must-visit is the opulent Peles Castle, nestled in the Carpathian foothills, known for its exquisite architecture and lush furnishings that narrate the grandeur of a bygone era.

Bucharest: The City of Contrasts

Bucharest, Romania’s dynamic capital, is a city of contrasts where Belle Époque architecture meets modern skyscrapers. Stroll along Calea Victoriei, a historic avenue lined with museums, shops, and cafes, reflect on the nation’s tumultuous journey through its Communist past by visiting the Palace of the Parliament—one of the world’s largest administrative buildings. While here, indulge in our custom travel packages to Romania that allow you to experience the city like a local—explore the vibrant street art in hidden alleyways, attend a traditional music performance, or savour authentic Romanian dishes at an open-air market.

Transylvania: Mystique and Majesty

A trip to Romania would be incomplete without experiencing the mystique of Transylvania. This region, often shrouded in legends, is home to the medieval town of Sibiu with its cobblestone streets and stunning baroque architecture. Meanwhile, Brașov offers a delightful blend of Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance architecture. Wander through its charming old town or embark on a hike up Tampa Mountain for panoramic views that capture the essence of this enchanting region.

The Bucolic Countryside of Maramureș

Maramureș is a step back in time, where traditional wooden churches and handcrafted structures dot the pastoral landscape. Engage with the local culture by participating in crafts workshops, or attend local festivals that illustrate the vibrant traditions that have been lovingly preserved. Journey through this region with our Romania travel packages, designed to showcase the authentic and rustic beauty of its picturesque villages.

Immerse in Romanian Gastronomy

Culinary aficionados will find a rich palette of flavours in Romanian cuisine. From the hearty sarmale (cabbage rolls) to the sweet indulgence of papanasi (fried doughnuts with cheese), every meal is a celebration of local produce and culinary traditions. Turn your meal into an experience by joining a cooking class or wine tasting tour, providing a deeper insight into the gastronomic delights of the region.

Adventure Awaits in the Carpathians

For those seeking the adrenaline rush, the Carpathian Mountains offer a playground of activities. Whether you prefer hiking, birdwatching, or skiing in the winter months, these mountains provide a breathtaking backdrop for adventure. Explore the dense forests and discover a biodiversity hotspot teeming with wildlife, making it an ideal destination for nature enthusiasts.

Every corner of Romania tells a story, from its towering peaks to its bustling cities and tranquil villages. Our custom travel packages to Romania promise an expertly tailored experience, ensuring that every traveler's desires are met with meticulous attention to detail.

You should try a Zen meditation session. Imagine slipping into a silk kimono for the day—carefully tied by an expert dresser, every fold precise, every colour chosen to suit the season. It’s a ritual that feels as personal as it is timeless.

What do I love about Japan? In a word - EVERYTHING. The incredible contrast that Japan offers - new/innovative vs old/traditional, the warm and welcoming people, the incredible rich culture, the culinary wonders awaiting around every corner, the cleanliness, efficiency and safety. It's one of the best places to visit in Asia in my opinion.

Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.

I love how laidback and relaxed Laos is compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. It's like the best of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand all rolled into one, and then sent back in time 20 to 30 years.

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
