Gate1travel - Phillips island penguin expert in Australia

Gate one cheaped our Phillps Island Penguin tour and put 5 of us on a tour with another group. Problem: bus was extremely uncomfortable Seats as hard as a rock. No leg room. I’m 5’3” and my legs hit the back of the seat. Bus had terrible suspension bounced all over. This was not up to the high quality of their other tours. Don’t bother to book it. If Gate one puts you with another tour group be cautious.

Gate1travel - Bed bugs

We traveled with Gate1, we stayed at a hotel on Lake Bled for two nights I felt like something was bitting me during the night woke up with clusters of redness and itching on my stomach and leg. Notified Gate 1 because hoping I did not bring them home as it was our last hotel stop before leaving for home. Was never that impressed with most of the hotels Gate1 uses.

Due to reading good and bad reviews for Gate 1, I have chose not to use this company for my travels. The bad reviews far outweigh the good ones. They seem to offer less than adequate customer service and resolutions. Not sure how they have been able to sustain their...

I agree with the other comment. I would never drive in a foreign country, at my younger age. Gate 1 has no control over the flights. The price is always higher if you change t...

Gate 1 does not control the airlines and has nothing to do with the flights you selected to get to Milan. This package clearly shows the amount of driving required once you la...

Gate1travel - Morocco Kaleidoscope Tour

Mid February 2019 A totally wonderful experience beginning to end. Customer service greatly helpful. Tons of help with luggage throughout. One decent hotel (Ibis), the others very nice. Avoid Novotel bar. Fabulous guide (ask for Khalid) with an enormous range of knowledge of the country and its history. Comfy bus with great driver. Morocco is a shopper's delight. We took all the optional tours and glad we did. Dress for cool to somewhat cold weather. Loved La Menora restaurant in Rabat. US dollars hard to use in most places. Use credit card or durhams. Would definitely use Gate 1 again.

Gate1travel - Refund on optional excursion
Did a trip to New Zealand with Gate1. Trip itself was wonderful. Signed up for optional excursions, including a nature walk. Could not do the walk because of a pulled back muscle from having to porter our own luggage at two different hotels. Trip costs include luggage...
