Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City, United States

Overview

Take a trip to Salt Lake City on your United States vacation.

Set against the backdrop of the Wasatch Mountains, Salt Lake City burns with youthful energy as the capital of America’s most breathtaking state. As the religious centre for Mormonism, Salt Lake City’s most iconic attraction is Temple Square, a vast landscaped plaza that houses four key sites including The Mormon Temple, the Mormon Tabernacle, Temple Annex, and Assembly Hall. Even for non-believers, the sites contain rich history and impressive architectural design that is not to be missed.

Get a true lay of the land from the Natural History Museum, summarizing thousands of years of evolution with a number of unique exhibits that will please any dinosaur fans. Explore the museum’s vast backyard on Living Room Trail, a popular hiking spot into the foothills of Red Butte Canyon Nature Preserve. Afterwards, refuel at one of Salt Lake City’s eclectic eateries, slinging out local favourites like Navajo tacos, fried-onion burgers, and southwestern barbecue.

As its namesake, the impressive Great Salt Lake lies a few miles west of the city. The shallow waters bring you soft colours and opportunities to sail, hike, bike, and swim in the largest salt lake in the Western Hemisphere. Antelope Island State Park takes you to its sandy shores and also to the plains of free-roaming buffalo. On the other side of the city, the ski slopes of Park City bring you alpine adrenaline, renowned for their role in the 2002 Winter Olympics.

Harpreet Litt provided us with a rich experience for our week. She offered good choices for local tour companies. We had a very good guide in Osaka. She is an Osaka resident with good English skills. She took extra pains to include opportunities we requested Osaka was a beautiful city at night. My photos of restaurants and street food were colorful and fun. Food was good too.Noel Chrisman

1186952 trip reference - Croatia and Montenegro. Dear Goway Travel Team! I wanted to reach out and share some well-deserved praise for Jacqueline, who has assisted me closely with several of my travels. She recently curated a trip for me to Croatia, the beautiful islands, and Montenegro, and it was an absolute home run. Jacqueline has an incredible ability to listen to her clients' needs and translate them perfectly into a flawless itinerary. Her articulation, guideline execution, and professionalism are unmatched. What sets her apart is her forward-thinking approach—she always knows the exact hotspots and trends, ensuring the pace of the trip matches my speed perfectly. Everything transitioned seamlessly thanks to her attention to detail and care. She is a massive asset to your organization, and her consideration makes every vacation stress-free. I will absolutely continue to use her for all my future travels. Kindest regards, Vince Sacco Vince Sacco

I have worked with Goway several times in the past two years and every single trip has been unforgettable. Specifically, our travel advisor, Maria, has helped us book phenomenal trips to Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and most recently, Iceland. Maria is so wonderful and easy to talk to, but what really stands out is her ability to get to know her clients so she can plan trips that perfectly align with our interests and desires. I cannot recommend her strongly enough! Her expertise, hard-work, and dedication towards each trip has given myself, my family, and friends memories to last a lifetime! Kayla Covello

I have been booking with GoWay for more than 2 years and feel so fortunate to have the best Travel Advisor, Maria Spitman, making our vacations unforgettable. I can’t say enough about Maria… she is personable, efficient, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable about her specialty destinations. We have booked many trips with her, including Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Iceland, and our most recent trip in Greece. Maria has not only curated nuanced itineraries, but has done so combining her vast knowledge of each region with our interests and needs being met perfectly. With that, it is evident that Maria learns about her clients to create vacation packages that far exceed expectations. I won’t book with anyone else! GoWay has a gem that is irreplaceable! I highly recommend seeking Maria out for all your destination needs. Darleen
