Jason Hedrick

Travel Expert

Having grown up in Egypt and lived in a few areas abroad, I have a passion for travel. I have been fortunate to travel to many areas around the globe. I love going to areas that are different than what I am used to. I love to explore and discover the difference. One of my absolute favorite areas is Africa. I have traveled extensively through East and Southern Africa and it never gets old.

Other areas that I have a passion for include Europe, especially France where I spent many of my college years.

I have also travelled extensively through Southeast Asia. One of my favorite experiences was on a river cruise down the Mekong in Vietnam and was able to visit the villages along and see first-hand the way of life of the people.

Travel is a way of life for me and it is a part of who I am. It is not just a process of organizing a flight or a hotel. It is about the experience.

We all had a terrific adventure from Nairobi to Ol Pejeta to Massai Mara. All the guides were knowledgeable and helpful, and the lodging arrangements were first class in all 4 stops.
We saw an amazing array of wildlife with the elusive leopard being our only missed sighting.
All 11 family members had an amazing life celebration.
Thank you for your diligent and meticulous planning and question answering.
We are and will be happy to use your travel advice in the future and refer to you.

Thank you again! The trip and adventure turned out as hoped!

Cheryl had an amazing, wonderful and memorable trip! All of the experiences were new to her so, from a non-prejudiced viewpoint, she liked Delta but loved KLM.  Wheelchair services on each leg of the flight were perfect and saved her a great deal of stress along with keeping her ankle pain-free.  The AMA pre-tour was wonderful. The Lisbon hotel was over the top and unlike anything she has experienced. The AMA transfers and tours everywhere were perfect. The riverboat  exceeded her expectations in every way.  She especially enjoyed the full day tour to Salamanca. She now wants to go to Spain. She was impressed how quickly and efficiently you handled the canceled flight and rerouting at the last minute. She is now a member of the Jason Hedrick fan club!
You helped to make her 80th birthday truly memorable.
We were sorry we couldn’t join her but we are so appreciative and grateful for you planning an amazing trip for her.  

Best regards,

Curt & Cheryl

Jason, you truly blew us away with your latest execution for our travels through Japan with Goway Travel. Oh my gosh, we had such an incredible time with every component you set in place. You were so efficient with our time from getting this all set into place for us and then utilizing our time on the ground while we were there. We have told so many friends we wont’ travel anywhere without you from now on. I know people like researching on their own, but I won’t trust booking a thing without going through you. You found not only the best places to stay, but had the great selections for guides, resources for on the ground experiences and dining recommendations too. It was a trip of a lifetime based on all the details and attention you dedicated to our goals. Thank you and we can’t wait until our next journey with you as our lead planner!
