South America might be home to only 12 countries, but you’ll be shocked at how much there is to do in each one. It’s so rewarding to plan a South American vacation and witness a traveller come to truly understand all that is possible when exploring this continent, from trekking through rainforests to relaxing on coastlines, to exploring the most gorgeous, windswept regions of the world to gazing upon some of its greatest historical treasures.

Tailor-Made Travel to South America
Experience unbound wonder in South America
Otherworldly Nature
The world’s largest rainforest. The world’s widest river. The world’s driest desert and largest salt flats. Most continents would be happy with one, but South America has all of them. This is a place to stand in awe of nature, from the biodiverse volcanic landscapes of the Galapagos Islands to the mountain peaks and steppes of Patagonia. A trip to South America is an adventure into the lushest, brightest, densest nature imaginable.
Inca Treasures
At its height, the Inca Empire stretched from the south of Colombia to central Chile, leaving timeless treasures in its wake. Head on a South American vacation to hike the Inca Trail and scale the mist-draped mountains to reach Machu Picchu, the Lost Citadel of the Incas. Explore the awe-inspiring ruins of the Sacred Valley, from Ollantaytambo to Pisac to the Inca capital of Cusco. See the Temple of the Sun at Ingapirca in Ecuador. And feel history come alive every step of the way.
Culinary Delights
Good food, fine wine, great company—you’ll find it all on a tour of South America. Enjoy culinary innovations at the world’s most celebrated restaurants in Lima. Savour robust reds and delicate whites in the wine region of Mendoza. Feast upon succulent barbeque in Buenos Aires and sample the vibrant street flavours of Rio de Janeiro. At every step of the way, meet people who are welcoming and know how to treat visitors like family.

ExcellentBased on 5,175 ReviewsThe 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. Overall cannot be more happy with our experience working with Goway Lauren BouwOur 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 WildesAs 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!BeataOur family trip to Machu Picchu was absolutely incredible, thanks to RuthAnne Leonty. Every tour was thoughtfully organized and the guides were top-notch. The private transportation and transfers were flawless, making everything run smoothly with zero stress from start to finish. Not a single hiccup...just an amazing experience!BarbWe 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 BraunWe 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.StanleyWe 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.JohnMichael 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 MirshakOsvaldo Gonzalez was an excellent rep to work with when planning my client's Costa Rica vacation. He was efficient and timely with every correspondence. My clients had an amazing time! Rachel HoeingOur 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
