Great trip again! Gate 1 is a great company. We have gone on several tours with Gate 1 and have never been disappointed.
Good trip. Great guide/driver. Good activities. and great hotel location-central.
We could not have asked for a better tour guide and bus driver. Amazing knowledge by the tour guide and we always felt safe.
Our tour guide was excellent. We've never had one better!
This tour met all my expectations. Enjoyed it very much. Excellent itineraries.Very nice tour guide and very helpful driver.
Love affordable tours Been using them for years
This was a bucket list trip. Everything was as promised and exceded
Our guide (Tom) throughout the trip went beyond and above his duty to take care of us every step throughout our journey. I can't say enough about him His loving spirit, his calm demeanor and his seemingly never ending energy. I cannot say enough about him. He was/phenomenal.
Reasonable base price, convenient hotel locations and an excellent guide.
We love Gate 1.
Everything was exactly as was advertised. Philip was great.
This was so easy to book thru affordable tours. Great service.
Loved this land tour with Gate1. There were a few other couples that had done Gate 1 tours and liked every one of them. I can see why. It was a great tour. The tour guide, provided meals, and rooms were excellent.
This is the first group tour we have taken but will not be our last. Our Affordable Tours agent John was just great. The tour manager Giuliana and all of the local guides were amazing. This trip far exceeded our expectations. The hotels and transportation were top notch. After talking with people from other competing tour companies this far exceeded theirs. We couldn't be happier and are looking forward to our next tour with Gate1 through Affordable Tours.
We do lots of escorted tours and of them all, Gate 1 is our favorite. They take you to places other tour groups take you, but it usually costs a little less.
