A message from our Founder

“Growing up as a Native American in Texas, my vary existence felt invisible.

My spirit sought motion in response to my trauma so I moved from place to place learning about humanity, life, and finding my inner peace.

Without my experiences abroad, I don’t know who I would be.

It is this truth that gives me such a passion to share the healing qualities of travel with others.”

-Goco

Goco Goes is about humanizing the travel experiences we have. We are working with the Dominican Ministry of Tourism to improve access to Sustainable Community-Based Tourism projects across the island of Kiskeya.

Goco has the vision to enrich the average backpacking adventure. Instead of traveling on your own as a foreign visitor with a surface-level perspective of your destination.

We wish to connect you with people and place alongside our professional guides who help introduce you into the culture. Joining Goco Goes is accepting an invitation into an entirely new perspective on life.
