Virginia Dameno

I have always been captivated by the allure of discovering new places, immersing myself in diverse cultures, exploring breathtaking landscapes, and embracing alternative ways of life. While pursuing my university degree, I toiled diligently to fulfill my dream of embarking on a month-long backpacking adventure across Europe, basking in the sun on the idyllic shores of the Mayan Riviera, trekking through the awe-inspiring terrain of Patagonia, and unwinding on the enchanting beaches of Brazil. Yet, my wanderlust was insatiable.

Following the successful completion of my bachelor's degree in International Relations, I embarked on a thrilling journey that led me to live and work in cool spots like Aspen, Vancouver, and Sydney. It was during my globetrotting adventures that I met the love of my life. We tied the knot, settled down in Vancouver, and started a family.

Our love for travel never died down. Whether it's a spur-of-the-moment trip to Whistler or an epic journey to Southeast Asia, I'm all about that adventure life. With this burning passion, it was a no-brainer that I'd end up working in the travel industry.

Did you know that Argentina has the world’s largest population of Magellanic Penguins? These adorable birds rest along the country’s coast, particularly in the Patagonian region.

“Live life with no excuses, travel with no regret.” – Oscar Wilde 

One of my favourite travel memories was e-biking through the rice fields in Bali with my husband and kids.

The room arrangements had a small hiccupp but Katie fixed it within minutes! All the excursions were a blast and well planned. The trip was a bucket list trip and was everything we hoped for.

Allan Birkett at Goway has been an absolute godsend! Over the past year, he has helped me plan numerous vacations—especially honeymoons—and has been an incredible partner every step of the way. He is always quick to respond, patient with my clients' frequent changes, and goes above and beyond to help whenever an issue comes up. His knowledge, professionalism, and dedication make my job as a travel advisor so much easier. I truly appreciate everything Allan does and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional service. Thank you, Allan, for always being thereBrooke Echols

Our 2-week trip to Normandy, Switzerland and Italy after we disembarked from the Queen Mary 2 in Southampton in mid-May was superb. Michael Keon did an amazing job of putting together highlights for us to see and visit with the short time we had. All the train reservations, private and small group tours and transportations were very well coordinated, on time, and usually exceeded our expectations. Drivers were courteous and knowledgeable. Mike did a wonderful job getting everything coordinated, in spite of our almost “last minute” booking. I booked a month-long trip through GOWAY back in 1989 for Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, and they were superb then. So I tried them again, and found the entire organization to be even better. Mike was quick to respond to any questions that came up regarding booksings and times, regardless of the 6-hour time difference. Just superb! Although we had a nasty experience in Milan, GOWAY was very responsive and saw to our requests and our needs. Again, Michael Keon is the person who coordinated our travel. I will ask for Mike when I travel again with GOWAY. I recommend GOWAY highly. PJ Wheeler

Goway helped plan our two week trip to Peru and they (Virginia in particular) did a great job. 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'Neill

I 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 Hay

Everything was planned perfectly. The excursions were so small and personal. Ask for Mark! I have already planned another trip back to the Oregon wine country with Mark. Claire
