Alisa Grigoryeva

Getting my suitcase ready and heading for the airport—what could be better? I was born and raised on a far-flung Russian peninsula called Kamchatka, a land of active volcanoes, huge bears, and wild nature. Having to fly to get to the Russian mainland, I got used to traveling since I was six months old. Working in the travel industry for more than 10 years has allowed me to experience and fall in love with adventure travel, camping and glamping lifestyles, and getting to know our beautiful world. Now I live just across the ocean from my homeland in beautiful British Columbia. I’m happy to introduce your clients to the diverse continent of Europe.

My husband and I created a glamping spot on the Pacific Coast. He's all about roughing it in the wild, and I prefer my wilderness with a side of room service. So, we compromised and provided the most luxurious tents you could imagine right by the rugged Pacific shore.

"What's down that's up, what's inside that's outside" - associated with Hermes Trismegistus

One of my most memorable travel experiences was when I stood at the height of 3300 meters and witnessed a volcano on the verge of erupting. Seeing real lava flowing out of it was awe-inspiring. I couldn't help but cry, deeply moved by the sheer beauty and force of nature.

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

Always a great experience working with GoWay. My destination specialist, Jaime, was wonderful throughout the planning process of a trip as well as when my clients hit a few snags in the road due to a hurricane. Grateful for Jaime’s assistance! Marissa Jennings

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
