Question: How can I print my itinerary?
Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?
Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?
Our main tour guide for the whole trip in Spain was absolutely awesome in every way. He truly cared about all of us on the trip as if we were members of his family. Our main coach bus driver was a wonderful driver and a very kind person too. All of the on-site guides were fantastic, informative, & interesting. All of the hotels we stayed at were great experiences, together w/the breakfasts & dinners provided. In addition, the Flamenco Show in Seville was beautiful! The whole Spain trip was unforgettable & went off without a hitch, thanks to all the Gate 1 Staff. I will definitely go on another one of their tours hopefully in the near future!
