Exploring the Cultural Richness

Stepping into Sri Lanka feels like stepping into a storybook. Begin your journey in the historic city of Kandy, home to the Temple of the Tooth Relic. This sacred Buddhist site houses a relic believed to be the tooth of Buddha himself. As you listen to the rhythmic chants of the monks, you'll be enveloped in serenity, an experience deeply rooted in Sri Lanka's spiritual fabric.

Don't miss the chance to wander through the ancient ruins of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa. These cities are replete with stupas, sculptures, and carvings that narrate tales of a bygone era. Opting for custom vacation packages to Sri Lanka allows you to explore these sites at your own pace, guided by insights into their historical significance.

The Call of the Wild

Lovers of the natural world will find their haven in Sri Lanka's national parks. Yala National Park promises exhilarating encounters with the island's diverse wildlife. Here, elephants roam freely, leopards stealthily tread through the underbrush, and the birdlife offers a symphony of colours and sounds.

For a more serene experience, head to the Minneriya National Park during the dry season. Witness the majestic gathering of Asian elephants near the Minneriya Tank, a sight that resonates deeply with the essence of Sri Lanka vacations that are unmarred by the bustling crowds.

Beaches that Breathe Tranquillity

When it's time to unwind, the coastal gems of Sri Lanka will not disappoint. Galle, with its UNESCO World Heritage-listed fort, offers a romantic blend of Dutch colonial architecture, quaint cafes, and azure waters. The coastal town of Mirissa is a dream spot for rejuvenation, whether lounging by palm-fringed beaches or embarking on whale-watching expeditions.

For those with a penchant for surfing, Arugam Bay awaits with its challenging waves and a vibrant beach culture. Each beach tells a different story, and custom travel packages can cater to both the thrill-seeker and the peace-loving traveler.

A Gastronomic Journey

No journey is complete without indulging in a country’s culinary delights, and Sri Lanka is no exception. Relish the explosion of flavours in a traditional rice and curry meal, where spices blend in a dance of taste and aroma. Find solace in a steaming cup of Ceylon tea at a hillside plantation in Nuwara Eliya, fondly known as "Little England" for its cool climate and verdant landscapes.

From street food to gourmet dining, the island's cuisine promises to be a feast for the senses, making it a must-feature in Sri Lanka vacations that seek to satisfy the palate alongside the soul.

Crafting Your Ideal Escape

Whether you’re drawn to the island's ancient history, its lush sanctuaries, or its sun-kissed coasts, the allure of custom vacation packages to Sri Lanka is the freedom they afford. Tailor your journey to reflect your unique interests, ensuring that your experiences resonate personally and deeply.

Unlock the treasures of Sri Lanka at your own pace, and let this island paradise captivate your heart and spirit. From intimate cultural encounters to grand natural spectacles, your Sri Lankan sojourn awaits to inspire exploration and enrich the narrative of your travels.

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.

I just returned from escorting 34 people to China with four stops. We had hotels, local guides and extensive daily sightseeing. We had flights and we had high speed rail. There were numerous components that could have gone wrong but did not. I would like to highly recommend local guide Yoyo in Shanghai as well as Kevin in Xian. Two of the best guides I have ever had anywhere in the world. Suzette Castro and her team at the Goway Group Department did an excellent job helping me put this together. I was demanding, they were totally cooperative. It went well. I will be back. Amy Fink, CTC at Blue Ribbon Travel ArrangementsAmy in San Bruno, CA

Had an extremely great holiday in China and hongkong & Thailand! Quite a few $$$(More than what we had planned, but if you want top luxury and experience - never haggle) Ameet our destination specialist was prompt and professional. He gave us the right suggestions and planned our trip meticulously and without interruptions. Goway 24 x7 customer service is incredible and I would definitely book my next trip with Goway!

I was looking at a month holiday in New Zealand and Australia and Natasa Jaric who is located in the Toronto area helped to make it happened by combining 2 already designed holidays in Oceania. From the beginning to the end, Natasa was "hands on" by explaining and providing everything I needed for our trip. During our trip, there were few bumps on the road that had nothing to do with Goway Travel as it was the airline company that cancelled our scheduled flight and created chaos. And the other problems (they were light) was because of the way hotels described their rooms. It should definitely be better worded! Db to me means double bed ... what does it mean to you? ;-) Anyhow, we ended up having two beds but with some arguments at one hotel only. The others accommodated us at no extra cost. I should also add that NZ and Aus. know how to treat tourists. I was particularly impressed with the transfers services offered by different companies both in NZ and Aus. Wow! No waiting at the airports, hotels or terminals. They were there ready to pick us up and drive us where ever we needed to be! Well done!!! It's the kind of service that I will have a hard time not to use again as it comes with a $ sign but definitely worth spending it! :-). I received a very good response from the "Help office" when the flight was cancelled and other inquiries I had made. Very good service once again. I live quite a few experiences during that month and all thanks need to go to Natasa and her team. So Natasa: Thank you very very much for a very well organized travel! Carole Ouellet

This was my first time planning a tour wth Goway Travel. I am truly delighted with the professionalism and personal relationship I had with the Goway Travel consultant Christine. She gave attention to every details I requested to curate my tour to Hong Kong and Bali. She addressed all my needs, answered thoroughly my questions and concerns. She is a touch of class in every respect. I will definitely recommend Goway Travel group. Excellent Hotels. Perfect guides in both countries. LE Asia Tour

Ingrid did a phenomenal job creating a 22 day trip beginning in with 3 days in Turkey, that included a Turkish Bath and a private tour of the mosques, we then took a 10 day cruise through the Mediterranean, Greece, Croatia, plus a couple of other stops. We got off the cruise in Ravenna Italy our transportation was spot on picking us up (I would have to stay all of our transportation was impressive, always there, on time, very helpful) we traveled from Ravenna to Venice where we stayed for two nights. Venice is the only place we had a hiccup, we weren't sure if someone was meeting us at our Hotel to take us to the water taxi to get to the train station, we figured it out, made the train and all was good. Traveled to Florence, had the best time there with one of our most favorite excusions, stayed in Florence for two nights and then completed our trip with three nights in Rome. Rome is BUSY, I was not prepared for that but should of expected it. This is our second big trip planning through Goway Travel, I can not recommend enough, they are so detailed and take care of everything you need and everything you didn't know you needed.
