I have taken several Gate 1 trips and am one of your cheerleaders- and the Myanmar trip was one of my favorites. To begin with, Mojo was a fabulous tour leader. We all loved him. He was fun- has a great sense of humor- and patient. He was interested in getting to know each of us, was interested in our purchases and impressions. He always made sure that our meals were served perfectly ..... It was clear that people he worked with also enjoyed him- even the cattle remembered and responded to him! There were several of us who are older and have minor challenges with ambulation. Mojo bent over backwards to make experiences comfortable, to help us off and on buses and boats, and to discuss with us in great detail what was coming up, how long it would take to walk to a certain point, how best to dress, etc. When people decided not to do certain activities, he would chase after them to see if he could accommodate them in some way. He could not have been more dedicated to our comfort, safety, participation and enjoyment. I really loved all the craft work on this tour. We were given great demonstrations on how things were made, as people actually made the products in front of us. They were all gracious with our fascinated observation and generously allowed us to take pictures. Often it was Mojo himself giving the explanation- I think he can do all those crafts! I really enjoyed bringing home some lacquerware afterward. I loved every stop, but Bagan was so beautiful - the sunset was spectacular. .....I was so moved by the organization that was teaching young people to be chefs, and the cooking (and eating!) was fun and interesting- including bringing the apron and recipes home! Thank you again for a wonderful experience!

It was great and made even better by our guide, Thin, who was over the top in looking out for all of us. He was outgoing, funny and knowledgeable in all things Vietnam.

It was fantastic! We had the best tour guide, Tho, who was amazing with his knowledge of Vietnam and his organizational skills in making the many pieces fall in place so smoothly!

Thank you for a wonderful trip to Cambodia and Vietnam. Jan, our tour guide, had a good personality, was well organized, very knowledgeable and spoke good English. This was our first time to travel with Gate 1. We plan to travel with with Gate 1 in the future. Great food, clean hotels and good service all at a bargain price.

Our trip was beyond FANTASTIC! We didn't know what to expect when going to Vietnam - it was a magical experience! The country is beautiful, the weather was perfect, and Vuong, our guide, was incredible! We will only travel with Gate 1 Travel in the future - you never disappoint us!

We had an absolutely fabulous time. The tour was great and the guide was excellent. He certainly showed us the other side of Vietnam. Hotels were very good and there were no complaints by us at all. We would certainly travel with Gate 1 again.

It was great !!! I enjoyed the most Cambodia, with our tour guide Phany. He did a wonderful excellent job. He was a well mannered professional & down to earth guy. Highly commended !!!!!

The trip was so much more than I ever expected. It was nothing but fabulous! Our guide Kyaw was outstanding. He took great care and gave attention to all matters. That was so reassuring and made the trip a secure comfortable experience...What a remarkable man, and Gate 1 is so fortunate to have him working for them. I could go on and on about each fascinating sight, but I would have to write an essay ... Looking forward to discover more of the world with Gate 1. I would urge anyone who ever considered going to Burma, to go. They would be amazed at the great hotels, gentle friendly people, sights to behold, and wonderful food.

The trip to Borneo was totally amazing! Our guide, Jerome, did an outstanding job keeping the groups’ attention and interest throughout the whole trip. I enjoyed everything, in particular, the visit to the Mengkak Longhouse and the visit with the native Iban people, the various caves we entered at Mulu National Park, the beautiful Mountain Gardens and orchids we saw in Kinabalu Park, and the visit to Mari Mari village and seeing how the different Sabah tribes lived in the rainforest. The main highlight, however, was the visit to the Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre and Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary, and, not to exclude, the playful Sun Bears at their Sanctuary.

Our trip was so amazing. I cannot even come up with enough words to describe it. This was my first trip with gate 1 and it will NOT be my last. The organization was impeccable from start to finish. I could not believe how smooth everything went and the hotels were amazing. Ray our guide was the best throughout helping with any questions we had with our flights and anything else. I am so impressed with everything.

The trip was wonderful! Your guides did a great job and the trip was well planned and the execution was flawless. We were particularly impressed with our guide for Vietnam. He did a wonderful job of explaining the culture and telling us about his personal experiences in the country. His short name was Kan and he should be highly commended for the excellent job he did. We will definitely be using Gate 1 for future travels.

We have been super impressed with Gate1's arrangements and the great tour leader in Tuyen! We both enjoyed ourselves immensely and will without a doubt be using you as our travel agents in the future. Thanks again to you and the Gate1 Group for a slick, well organised and really commendable effort!

My trip to Bali was absolutely great. Wonderful weather and lovely people, super polite and friendly. Bali had lots of beautiful places to visit and enjoy. We were welcomed at the airport by Sastra, who was a warm and knowledgeable person. He couldn't do enough to make us happy. The Mercure hotel was simply great possessing a super great staff, having a wonderful location and excellent food. Wherever we went, the Balinese displayed a great deal of politeness and really welcomed us. I felt I was in paradise. More people should travel there.

My husband and I had an amazing time! The trip exceeded our expectations and we give much credit to our wonderful guide, Yang, whose knowledge, patience and helpfulness made the trip very enjoyable. The accommodations were excellent and we learned a great deal about Vietnam. We would definitely consider another Gate1 Tour.

We had a fantastic time. Everything was well organised and our tour guide, Tuyen was a great tour guide. Will be looking forward to more holidays.

Great guide Tran, was always focused on making sure everything worked perfectly. Also a great Itinerary, good food, lots to do and see, you guys do such a great job at Gate1. We will be back soon again. Thank you

We had a great time! It was more than what we expected. Our group was great and our tour manager, Tu was great! He’s a good asset of your company. He’s very informative, caring and organized. Looking forward to more travel deals in the future.

Our trip was fabulous! This was our firth Gate 1 tour, and it was the best one yet! The group was spectacular and Tom Pham, our tour guide was truly amazing.

Our trip to Thailand, Laos and Cambodia was amazing. We enjoyed every minute, and we're very happy with the Gate 1 services offered.

It was super! Our guide, Hai, was terrific and the scenery and sights were great! Thanks for asking.

We absolutely loved the trip and our guide, Voeng, was fantastic. I consider this the best vacation I have ever been on an we learned a lot about their culture.

It was fabulous, better than my first time to Vietnam in 2006. Weather was great, food was amazing, hotels were wonderful, and we had a superior tour guide, Tho. Learned so much more than expected from him sharing knowledge of his culture, history, places we visited, economics, religion, education, health and social issues. The country has really grown in number of buildings, motor cycles, population, and cost. Many more tourists, including our group of 33, who are experienced travelers and enjoyed Gate 1 frequent times. Many plan to go other places in the future soon, including me.

Excellent...our guide was especially good and helpful.

Tuyan was a terrific tour guide. This was my 8th Gate 1 trip and he was the best. Very knowledgeable and engaging. I think he showed some of Vietnam most tourists don't see. Also visiting some of those places I remember hearing about during Vietnam war helped me put some things in perspective. The food and shopping were great too. Especially enjoyed Angkor Wat, Saigon, the tunnels, Hoi An and Hue, but everything was interesting and fun. I went on all the optional tours. We had a good group of travelers too.

Trip was excellent. Tour managers were very competent, knowledgeable of their country history and culture answering any questions we might have. Hotels, restaurants and food served were very good. Optional tours well organized and interesting places to see. As always, Gate 1 offered excellent customer services.

It was fantastic. The Countries we visited, the Tours, food, and especially, the tour guides were outstanding. We will definitely consider Gate 1 for our next trip.

Trip to Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia was excellent. The tour manager "Ranee" was outstanding, very caring, and helpful during all 18 days trip. She worked closely with local tour guides in Laos and Cambodia and stayed on top if there was any deviation than scheduled tours.

We had an excellent time. It was a "life experience" as we didn't know what to expect and were amazed at the poverty but beauty in Myanmar. I wanted to give a shout-out for our guide - Mojo. He was fantastic. He never stopped helping us out and kept things organized. We have been on a few Gate1 trips and in most cases there is a lead and a local guide. Mojo did both. In addition, he also ensured that at restaurants that the staff were informed as to what to do. He told me that the staff at restaurants don't always get the right training, so he took charge and made sure we were taken care of. I just wanted to make sure he was recognized because without him, the trip would not have been as enjoyable. We will definitely keep traveling with Gate1 as this is a great organization and the trips are fantastic!!!

We had a great trip! We had a very good tour manager, very knowledgeable local guides and a great group of people to travel with. We were thrilled at the opportunity to learn about and experience the rich history and culture of the places we visited. We enjoyed the hotels we stayed at, the accommodation at Luang Prabang was particularly impressive. We liked the experience of trying many different kinds of food with the exception of a few dishes. All in all, it was a very memorable trip.

Vietnam and Cambodia was my best Gate 1 trip ever!!! My tour manager, Tran, and group were fantastic. Angkor War and Halong Bay were the main reasons I booked this trip and they exceeded my expectations.I enjoyed learning the history, interacting with the people and trying the regional dishes of Vietnam and Cambodia. I look forward to booking my next trip with you.

My trip was wonderful! All the guides were excellent but I feel like Tran went above and beyond to make sure that everyone had a great experience. (That can't be easy with such a large group!). I would gladly recommend this tour to anyone.

Excellent tour!, Our tour guide for Thailand, Laos and Cambodia (Lift) worked hard to ensure everything went smoothly. In Vietnam (Duc) did a superb job as our guide. This tour covered all the highlights that We wanted to see in SE Asia.

I found my new "favorite place" to travel in Viet Nam! For absolute sure, our guide Mr. Thang (Victor), made this a most memorable trip. His knowledge and passion to tell the stories/history of Viet Nam is unsurpassed. He is by far the best tour guide I have ever experienced. His attention to detail and kind, compassionate concern for every guest on the trip was amazing. The country is beautiful and I found the people most welcoming and courteous. The amount of land covered and the sites we visited were a wonderful mix of adventures. Outstanding trip and all the better with the expert guide provided by Gate I.

Burma was all that Kipling wrote about and more. Each day was an adventure, that will be a memory forever. Our guide "MoJo" was a bonus for us all, as his fountain of knowledge, pride in his country, was shared with a warm smile, and contagious laugh. The hotels in Myanmar were each special, and the Lotte will soon become a Grand Hotel like those in Banff & Jasper, Canada. Still recovering from 27 hour flight home...but wonderful memories dance in our heads.

Our trip to Thailand, Cambodia, and Viet Nam was great. Customer Service, thumbs up. Several weeks before the trip, I talked with one of you agents concerning a change in our flight schedule. She was very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the wide range of activities. Besides so many interesting places/things to see, I especially enjoyed the activities, such as boat trips, and the Ox Cart trip. Arrangements, the whole trip was well organized. I enjoyed the Add-on trips, and the choice to take them, or stay back and relax. Everyone we met/came in contact with, were very friendly, courteous, and helpful, including the Bus Drivers and Assistants, Hotel and Restaurant Staff, and Shop Keepers...The guides, Cambodia Sang was not only skilled at giving us information, but he was also so cheerful and friendly. Viet Nam Tommy What can I say. He was alway thoughtful, caring, cheerful, unflappable and flexible. Nothing seems to upset him. He was flexible, which, I believe added to our experience. Both sang and Tommy offered a wealth of information. What I have brought back, besides sights and experiences, is is all this information about culture, history, politics, religion, etc. I learned so much, and it enriched the whole experience. Would I recommend Gate 1 and this tour to others, yes. Would I consider traveling again with Gate 1, yes.

Our trip to Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia was fabulous! The itinerary was well thought out. Our tour guide, Vit, made it educational and fun. He guided us with ease, introduced us to new things, never lost patience, was kind, knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile. Vit is a treasure. I can't believe we got so much for such a great price!

It was fantastic! Indonesia is a fascinating country culturally, historically, geographically, gastronomically, and above all in hospitality. Gate 1 exceeded our expectations--our tour director Cika was a 15 on a 1 to 10 scale--what a resource for Indonesian cultural, historic, religious, political, and social/local customs. He takes great pride in his country and in representing Gate 1. Hotel in Ubud sat in the middle of rice patties and was the most beautiful and exotic place I've ever stayed. The group was very culturally diverse which added to the overall experience too. Gate 1 Discovery Tour experience set a new standard of excellence for us and we are hoping to visit Ireland in the Fall with a DT.

The trip was excellent, and specially the tour guide was awesome and highly knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor. We had great time.

Trip went off without a hitch. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in Vietnam and look forward to booking another guided trip (this was our first). The tour guide was excellent and gave us valuable insight into Vietnamese culture.

The trip was wonderful. The hotels were beautiful and comfortable. The tour bus was clean and our tour leader, Shaukani (Sean) was the best. Sean was knowledgeable, patient and funny. Best of all he knew how to deal with a large diversified group of Americans. In my book Gate 1 did it again, an excellent adventure for the money!

Our trip was fabulous, with a great tour manager in making our visit interesting, educational, and memorable, as well as meeting a great group of people on the trip. We have been traveling with Gate 1 for many years with great pleasure and this trip to Vietnam fully met our expectation.

Our trip was fantastic. To experience the culture and the dynamic of life in Vietnam was truly a life enriching experience. The cities were vibrant and bustling, the outlying village tour was a great gateway into the lives of the common Vietnamese way of life. Halong Bay boat trip and cave adventure was truly amazing. The food was fantastic the accommodations were great and our guide (although a little too politically focused) was very good. I would recommend this trip for anyone who is looking to experience other cultures around the world. The Vietnamese people were very friendly and engaging and eager to share their way of life with us. The host family for the dinner were such great hosts and really gave us an insight into the common family way of life. Overall a great trip and well worth the time, effort and expense.

Wonderful, as always. We loved Thailand and the great job of planning and executing the trip by Gate1! Thanks!

Fantastic, loved, loved, loved it. Tom was a great tour guide and he showed us the real Vietnam. He took care of all our needs and was easy going and funny and also informative. That is exactly why I like Gate1 1 Travel and I always recommend it wherever I go.

The trip was great and I enjoyed every aspect of what Gate 1 had to offer. You may remember my appreciation for your professionalism expressed to you personally before we departed and I have to say this professionalism continued throughout the holiday. Every step of the trip worked like clockwork and everyone from the tour guide through to the drivers and support staff were outstanding. The tours, locations and cultural information were also outstanding as were the hotels, meals, and little extras thrown in by our excellent tour guide Nu. I would not hesitate to recommend Gate 1 to my friends and would love to travel with Gate 1 again for my next holiday.
