I was born in Gunma, Japan, which is located 2 hours north of Tokyo, surrounded by the beautiful mountains and hot springs. I moved to Tokyo to start career. I first started working in Tokyo as a systems engineer and traveling was only something I would reward myself with. Nevertheless, something left me unsatisfied. I wanted to start a new career and do something that I was passionate about. I left Tokyo in 2012 and studied Travel and Tourism in Toronto, Canada. All the places that I visited have made an impact on me and have provided me with experiences that I will never forget. Climbing Mt. Fuji overnight, flying around Everest in Nepal, visiting a glacier in Iceland, catching a glimpse of a Tasmanian devil in Australia, or relaxing at the beach in Hainan Island or staring at the most incredible night sky in Queenstown. I will help bring you these kinds of wonderful experiences.

I was a train geek, getting on a small local train, in Queenstown New Zealand, was the purpose of the trip. I stayed at a small family run B&B and met wonderful locals. One of the locals was a friend of the train driver and he took me to the train and let me sit down in the driver seat and pull the horn. I was so excited and my dream came true more than I ever dreamt. At night, the sky was filled with stars and that was most beautiful sky I have ever seen in my life.

The on-site logistics with Condor Travel went very smoothly, and the trip exceeded our expectations overall. They proactively suggested changes to our initial itinerary which were welcomed. I would recommend them and would work with them again in the future.Kate O'NeillWe entrusted Goway with every detail of our trip from start to finish and they came through for us superbly! Every single detail was smooth sailing. It was a joy to plan our travels with Goway!! We had an amazing trip of a lifetime!
E&DI recently went on an African Safari with my brother-in-law and sister and another couple who I knew. The entire experience was absolutely unbelievable. The complete details were flawlessly coordinated from the transfers to the breathtaking lodges. Our guides Peter showed us Kenya and Maulid Tanzania were very knowledgeable and very sharp eyes for finding the animals.
We were able to see the animals up close, learn a lot about the people, birds , vegetation etc.
We had several sundowners in the bush really added to a magical experience with beautiful sunsets.
I would highly recommend Goway to all my friends, they will not be disappointed.
Thank you to Bijal for the excellent African Safari that you put together for us. You were wonderful.Nancy HayWe enjoyed our trip very much. I was very pleased by the hotel, tours, and itinerary selections that Alice Teramoto made for us. It was all well organized and easy to follow.

ClaireGoway planned a custom 2 week safari trip for my wife and I which was beyond perfect. Extremely satisfied with the entire process from planning, booking and follow up. Special thanks to my Travel Specialists, Brooke Theron and Angela DonnellyNeil RWorking with Allan is absolutely a dream. He is one of the most responsive people I’ve had the pleasure of working with and his attention to detail is unmatched. I truly wish I could just use him for every single trip I need to book.Liz PooreKimberly Brown from Goway Travel made my trip to Australia & New Zealand a very memorable and remarkable experience. Every step and detail was fantastic and I will never forget the trip of a lifetime and it was because of the experience of Kimberly. If you are thinking about taking a trip to New Zealand and Australia, I highly recommend contacting Kimberly from Goway travel. David KleinWe had a blast and felt covered by GoAway throughout. This was our first time using a travel agent and Melissa and her team made it easy. I also appreciated the quick communication while on our trip. I only wish that we got our official itinerary and tickets sooner as we did not receive them until a week prior. But it is busy season so I understand. Courtney McCarthy
