Unveiling Edinburgh: The Heart of History

Begin your private Scotland trip in the capital city of Edinburgh, where history whispers through its cobblestone streets. The iconic Edinburgh Castle, perched proudly atop Castle Rock, offers sweeping views of the city and a deep dive into Scotland’s past. Stroll down the Royal Mile, where centuries-old buildings house vibrant cafes and unique boutiques, perfect for a leisurely afternoon exploration. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Palace of Holyroodhouse, the Queen’s official Scottish residence, to immerse yourself in royal history.

The Mystical Highlands: Nature’s Masterpiece

No Scotland vacation is complete without venturing into the Highlands—home to majestic mountains, tranquil lochs, and invigorating trails. This region, where nature is both a tranquil and formidable force, offers a myriad of adventures. Imagine a private boat ride across Loch Ness, where folklore meets fantastic scenery or hiking the rugged terrain of Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest peak, for an awe-inspiring view that's well worth the climb.

Cultural Immersion in Glasgow

Journey west to Glasgow, a city that harmonizes modern creativity with historical depth. Known for its vibrant arts scene, the city boasts numerous galleries and museums, such as the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, which exhibit both local and international masterpieces. Experience the unique energy of the city through its music scene, from traditional Scottish tunes in a cozy pub to innovative compositions in modern venues.

Indulgence in Scottish Cuisine

Scotland’s culinary offerings are an integral part of its cultural tapestry. Embark on a gastronomic journey where local delicacies invite you to taste the essence of the land. Try the famed Scottish salmon, locally sourced and expertly prepared, or the traditional haggis, a dish steeped in Scottish heritage. Pair your meal with a glass of world-renowned Scotch whisky, distilled with centuries of expertise.

Private Tours: Tailored Experiences

Opting for a private tour not only means travelling at your own pace but also having the flexibility to craft an itinerary that aligns with your personal interests. Whether you’re keen to delve into clan histories or prefer a scenic coastal drive along the North Coast 500, a private Scotland trip offers bespoke experiences designed just for you. Connect with knowledgeable guides who bring each story to life, making your journey through Scotland as enriching as it is exclusive.

Tapping into Local Festivals and Events

Plan your visit to coincide with some of Scotland’s vibrant festivals to truly capture the spirit of the country. The Highland Games, a summer spectacle of sport, dance, and Scottish flair, offers an authentic taste of local traditions. Meanwhile, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, held every August, transforms the capital into a global stage for theatre, comedy, and unbridled creativity.

Travelling through Scotland on a private tour means so much more than a vacation; it’s a journey of discovery through one of the world's most storied landscapes. Whatever kind of adventure you're seeking, Scotland’s rich culture and breathtaking vistas await. Ready to embark on your personalized Scottish escapade? Your extraordinary journey is just a step away, promising tales to be told for years to come.

For somewhere a little lesser known, make sure to visit Dunfermline, the old capital of Scotland. Rich in history, it’s home to the impressive Dunfermline Abbey where many Scottish kings and queens are buried, including Robert the Bruce.

Many tourists don’t realize how diverse Scotland’s regions are, each area has its own distinct culture, accents, and traditions. For example, the Outer Hebrides have a strong Gaelic heritage that’s still thriving.. Also, Scotland has some of the most beautiful white sand beaches in Europe, especially on the west coast and islands.

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
