We had an unforgettable 5D4N trip to Bali with Gomayu Holidays! From the very beginning, the communication was smooth, clear, and professional. Everything was perfectly organized; airport pickup, hotel check-ins, and daily tours were always on time, with no stress at all.

Our stay was split between a beautiful private pool villa in Seminyak and a comfortable room at Grand Mega Resort, both of which exceeded expectations. The itinerary was well-balanced with adventure, culture, and relaxation. We really enjoyed the watersports (banana boat, jet ski, parasailing), the stunning Uluwatu Temple with Kecak dance, and the romantic candlelight dinner at Jimbaran Beach. The Bali swing and tandem ATV ride were absolute highlights and so much fun! Visiting Lempuyang Temple (Gate of Heaven) was magical and very well arranged despite the crowds. We had some spare time to visit the malls and try local food as well.

Special thanks to the guide and driver, who was friendly, helpful, super-flexible and always made sure we were comfortable. We didn’t have to worry about anything as everything was well-organized.

Highly recommended for anyone planning a hassle-free and memorable Bali trip. Thank you, Gomayu Holidays, for making our holiday truly special!

I travelled to Thailand with my parents through Gomayu.
We had to keep postponing the trip, but the sales associate I was in communication with, remained patient and professional. We were also able to customise our iteneray for the trip.
And while on the trip, all transfers were in great condition. We had prior knowledge for all the pickup timings and vehicles.
We had minors issues. Two or three instances, where the transfers were late. We were expecting the window seats in the dinner cruise in Bangkok, we had the aisle. And some airport guidance would have been helpful for us first timers.
And since my Mom has trouble walking long distances, we had to figure out how to use the buggy cart service at Sanctuary of Truth on our own. I had asked the agency for some assistance, but either they were unaware of this facility provided freely by the museum, or some other reason.
However, any complaints were dealt with great responsiveness and sincerity.
Overall, I would recommend Gomayu for your travels, and we would definitely consider travelling through them again in the future.

Just wow! The coordination, especially the fast and instant communication whenever needed and those constant and clear updates of our itinerary was among the best things. They focused on even the minor details like hotel room placement, cruise seatings and so on which I personally liked very much. Really glad I went to Thailand with Gomayu. They definitely won both my trust and heart, especially Elho Tamang Ji. Really exceptional service and flawless coordination.
Thank you, guys!

Me and my husband visited Bali, Indonesia last month, and Gomayu Holidays handled all of my travel plans for a 5-days/4-night trip- arranged impressively on very short notice. I was truly amazed by how quickly Krishtina from Gomayu put everything together while still accommodating my entire travel wish list.

They provided us with an English-speaking driver who explained every detail throughout our journey, making the trip incredibly informative and enjoyable. The itinerary was well-structured and seamless, and we didn’t have to worry about breakfast since the hotel they booked included it for free.

Elho from Gomayu made the entire experience even smoother by keeping us connected through a WhatsApp group with everyone involved in the trip. I cannot thank them enough for the outstanding service. I highly recommend planning your next vacation with Gomayu Holidays- they are truly EXCELLENT.

A special heartfelt thank you to Krishtina and Elho from Gomayu Holidays!

I recently booked my Thailand travel package with Gomayu Holidays, and I am extremely satisfied with their service. From the very beginning, their communication was clear, consistent, and very helpful. Every detail of my itinerary-airport pickups, hotel check-ins, island tours, and transfers-was perfectly organized and well-coordinated.
I really appreciate how they kept me informed at each step and ensured I had all the necessary instructions in advance. The team was always approachable and quick to respond to any questions. Because of their efficient coordination, my trip went smoothly without any stress.
The Meet & Greet services, hotel arrangements, and tours like Phi Phi Island and the Chao Phraya Dinner Cruise were all handled professionally. I especially liked how they reminded me about things like packed breakfasts, national park fees, and what to carry during excursions.
Especially Mr. Elho Tamang — he was exceptionally helpful and always ready to guide me with the best possible options.
Overall, Gomayu Holidays made my travel experience comfortable, enjoyable, and worry-free. I truly appreciate their efforts and outstanding communication throughout the trip.
Highly recommended for anyone planning a hassle-free holiday! 🌟✈️🌴

My trip to Thailand was truly unforgettable. Phuket especially felt like a dream. The beaches were clean and vibrant, the water crystal clear, and every sunset looked like a postcard. From the exciting island-hopping tours to the peaceful mornings by the sea, Phuket offered the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.
I also enjoyed exploring other places like Bangkok and Krabi. Bangkok’s temples, night markets, and food were incredible—full of energy and culture. Krabi impressed me with its stunning cliffs, calm beaches, and friendly locals.The entire tour was well-organized, comfortable, and hassle-free. Transportation, hotels, and activities were handled smoothly, allowing me to enjoy every moment without stress. Every day felt like a new experience, full of beauty and excitement.

Specially Thanks to MrElho tamang and Nilaya Sir for the best cooperation and respect you guyz make our tour so comfortable and enjoyable. Hope to meet you both in another trip with same friendly expressions and services.
