Words cannot express what a unique and wonderful trip I just experienced. What made it memorable was the work of our Tour Manager, Mohammed. His vast expertise and command of Egyptian history, culture, and many other subjects provided me a unique and well received prospective of life in Egypt past, present and future. I thought I knew what the pyramids, temples, life of the pharaohs was all about before I met Mohammed. He educated the group in a friendly manner, adding humor and relevant insight at every turn. His communications skills and his domain of the English language coupled with his great sense of humor enabled the group to always feel at ease and attentive. He has a keen ability to readily identify problems before they become bigger problems. Group harmony was always maintained at the highest levels. Something as simple as having Egyptian money to pay for use of toilets goes to show his attention to detail on all matters concerning the group. I have traveled many times with Gate 1 and Mohammed ranks as one of the best. He is a great ambassador for country, and a great asset to the gate 1 family.

Abdou was beyond excellent. From the moment our journey began, his knowledge, warmth, and genuine enthusiasm for Morocco elevated the entire experience. He was incredibly helpful and informative, but what truly set him apart was the way he connected with every guest. His humor, kindness, and thoughtful attention made each day feel personal rather than scripted. We especially appreciated how he shared his own life story alongside the history and culture of his country. That perspective brought Morocco to life in a way that guidebooks simply can't. It was clear how much pride he takes in his work and in his homeland, and it was a joy to witness. We love traveling with Gate1: the tours, the organization, and the hotels are consistently excellent. But what makes these trips exceed expectations is the guides, and Abdou is a perfect example of that. He didn't just lead a tour; he created an experience we will remember for years.

Our trip to Morocco was incredible! This was my 48th trip with Gate 1 and it definitely ranks in the top 5. Abdoul, our tour guide, was so kind, informative and never once became at all irritated with us. I continue to sing Gate 1's praises to every traveler I know. Now, several of my friends use Gate 1 exclusively. The friend who joined me on this trip always uses OAT (Overseas Adventure Travel) and I just heard her telling someone that they will be using Gate 1 from here on out. Keep doing what you're doing, because it's working!

Our trip was fantastic! Gate 1 did an amazing job. There is no way we would have been able to see what we did in Morocco on our own. From the hotels to the transportation, to the included food and city tours, it was perfect. The best part? Our tour guide, Hisham, was outstanding! Hisham organized everything and ensured we were on time with no hiccups. He provided interesting information throughout the trip and to a person in the group, we were absolutely touched by the degree of effort he put in. I would highly recommend Gate 1 in the future!

I would like to say that our tour manager in Morocco, Hicham, did a fantastic job throughout the tour. He is very knowledgeable and has great organizational skills. Hicham is an excellent teacher and gave us a much deeper understanding of Morocco, its people and culture than we ever could have learned if traveling on our own. I believe everyone in our tour group had the same opinion. Gate 1 did a superb job in hiring Hicham as a tour manager.

My trip was great. Our tour director was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all questions asked. Egypt has a long and complicated history and having somebody able to share the big picture in addition to detail is unusual and made the trip special. Mohammed also shared his love of Egypt. I was the only solo traveler, and it was my first solo trip. Mohammed went out of his way to insure I felt comfortable and as a result I became an integral part of the group never feeling uncomfortable.

Morocco was just wonderful! The hotels were fabulous and all the tours were fantastic!! I loved Ali! He was so knowledgeable and kind and took such good care of us. He truly made me feel like family and so welcome in his country. Thank you Gate 1 for another amazing trip!!!

A huge part of what made this trip so memorable was our amazing Tour Manager, Hussein. He truly went above and beyond! Despite his young age, he was exceptionally knowledgeable about everything Jordan has to offer, and his patience and genuine care for every single person in our group were just outstanding. He really made everyone feel comfortable and ensured we all had the best experience possible.

Our guide Mohamed was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and conveyed his knowledge with enthusiasm. We felt that he was the best guide we could have asked for.

It was sooo good! Gate 1 was incredible and out tour guide, Mohammed, was one of the best i have ever had and ive been on a lot of tours. I cant recommend him enough.

I'd like to thank Omar - our tour guide - he was absolutely excellent! I really enjoyed our trip and seeing Jordan through Omar's eyes and his stories!! Amazing beauty, and not just Petra - that was a highlight for sure - but also Jerash and other locations were simply amazing!!! This was one of the best trip i did with Gate1 and outside of Gate1. Thank you.

Just wanted to say that our guide OMAR in Jordan was the best guide we have ever had in all our travels. He was absolutely top notch. Don't lose him!

This was our very first trip with Gate 1, and to put it simply, we were extremely satisfied. Everything was impeccably organized: the bus was always waiting for us on time, hotel check-ins were quick and seamless, lunches were prepared and relaxing, and all sightseeing entrances were arranged in advance. Our tour manager, Attia, was outstanding. He was consistently punctual, provided clear explanations of each day's activities, and offered genuinely helpful suggestions and recommendations throughout the trip. We also want to highlight the terrific local guides-Attia in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and Massoud in Oman. What stood out most for me personally was hearing about their real-life experiences and family stories. It added depth and authenticity far beyond the typical information you can find online.

It was super. Great guide. Moha really knew his stuff. He was top notch. All the guides were great along the way. Enjoyed the camp Sahara tent experience and the camel ride. The optional hot air balloon was exceptional. When we left the hotel on the last day to the airport with gate 1 shuttle, a gate 1 rep met us there and took us right to the airline counter. This was so good. I never had this experience. Wow!

Our trip to Morocco was amazing, the tour director (Redone) was fantastic and very knowledgeable, he really made our trip wonderful and memorable, the bus driver and the assistant were very professional and courteous. We had a wonderful time.

I'm still absolutely beaming from my trip - honestly, it was beyond amazing, truly one for the books! Every expectation I had was completely surpassed, and I've come home with a treasure trove of incredible memories. I really must give a huge, special mention to our Tour Director. They were simply phenomenal! Not only were they brimming with fascinating knowledge about every place we visited, but their genuine kindness and the incredible care they showed to each one of us in the group made the journey so much more personal and enjoyable. They fostered such a warm, supportive, and fun atmosphere, making us all feel like a close-knit family exploring together. Their dedication and attentiveness truly made all the difference. And Morocco itself? Wow! It completely stole my heart. I was utterly captivated by its vibrant energy, the incredible tapestry of sights, sounds, and smells, and its deep, rich history. Each day unfolded with new discoveries - from the exhilarating bustle of the markets and the ancient allure of the medinas, to the serene beauty of the desert landscapes and the awe-inspiring architecture. The warmth and hospitality of the Moroccan people, alongside their fascinating traditions, truly left a profound and lasting impression, broadening my perspective in the most wonderful way. It was also a fantastic experience to share this adventure with some friends who joined us! Seriously, Gate 1, you've outdone yourselves once again! Thank you so much for putting together such an enriching and truly unforgettable travel adventure. I'm already buzzing with excitement about planning my next exploration with you!

Just to say that our recent small group tour to Morocco was truly a trip to remember. Mo made sure we all had a wonderful visit, attending to all the important logistics at every stop, and encouraging friendships old and new. Kudos, too, to our careful driver and assistant, as well as our experienced (and some highly entertaining) local guides. We left with many great memories and impressions of Morocco, and I have personally recommended it family and friends who wanted to know all about my tour.

BEYOND SPECTACULAR!!!!! The 12-day Moroccan journey exceeded all our (6 girlfriends in our 70s) expectations!!! Gate 1 delivered excellently from start to finish, with very well-chosen itineraries, superb hotels & restaurants, efficient services from the best tour manager Mohammed, along with our skilled driver & assistant including baggage handlers (upon arrivals & departures at airports) .... All services were second to none!!!! We have travelled far and can only endorse Gate 1 again & again & again & again. You guys have made our getaway very special in every way possible. Thank you and here's to more Gate 1 trips with us ahead!!!!!

Hi - I just completed the automated survey but would like to add that once again Gate One has way over delivered in terms of service and value. Our tour manager, Rasheed, was wonderful - organized, knowledgeable, friendly, and so helpful in every way. The hotels were above and beyond what we expected. The food was amazing and perfect for our trip! I am recommending Gate One to all of my friends who are traveling and everyone is coming home raving about your tours. Thank you so much!

Our tour manager, Ramy, led us on the best tour we have ever had! His obvious love of people and passion for travel was contagious and created an instant camaraderie among our group. He greeted us individually each morning with smiles and everyone was excited about starting the new day's adventure. We never wasted time in long lines because he knew how to circumvent them. He always watched out for our safety and warned us where to watch our step. Questions were answered immediately, problems were solved effortlessly and he always acted like it was entirely his pleasure to help us out. My husband lost his hat and mentioned it. Ramy bought him a new hat that very afternoon so the glare outside the next day wouldn't detract from his enjoyment of the sights. Wherever we went, camel markets, date markets, marinas, luxury hotels; everyone knows and loves Ramy and greets him with smiles and hugs. It was fun being associated with such a popular tour manager. Thanks Ramy, you are the best!!

The trip was outstanding. The destinations, the unique experiences, the hotels and itinerary were excellent, which made the trip so very memorable. The amount of experience and tours provided were of great quality and value. Also, the tour guide, Massoud, was excellent. A kind, thoughtful and informative guide and great asset for Gate1. Finally, the Tour Manager, Attia, was outstanding. He has the perfect disposition, professionalism, knowledge and demeanor for this job and is a great asset for Gate1.

Our tour guide, Said, was wonderful! His depth of knowledge was amazing as well as his management skills in coordinating the tour. The entire trip was well planned out and he was able to pass on his knowledge of Morocco throughout the tour. All the members of our tour group quickly became friends, which I believe was largely due to Said's ability to set the tone for the tour. You are lucky to have him!

Our tour manager, Efi, is very knowledgeable and friendly. She showed a lot of passion on Greek history and mythology. It was great to have her as our tour manager.

Our tour manager is the best tour manager for our past 5 Gate1 tours. I cannot say enough good words about him and I will recommend this tour to all my friends and hopefully they can have him as their tour manager.

Our last Discovery 13 days Greece the Birthplace of Civilization trip was exceptionally great. We were 9 of us in our group with 10 others. Our Tour guide Eva was amazing. Well-read and very proud of her culture and heritage. She was so good that the whole group felt like was a family. In our group we were 6 of us who were vegetarian and Eva went out of her way to provide us with the best local meals. At one restaurant when the meal was not acceptable, she made sure they replaced it with something which was acceptable. There were times our day started at 8.00 am. This was to beat the traffic and crowds. We can give EVA five for her great service. We would NOT like to forget the coach driver Plato. We wish to have him drive us on our future trips. Greece streets are very narrow with cars parked on either side. Plato knew what he was against. So precise in his driving. Besides he took care of the coach and kept it very clean. Overall, we were all very happy with Gate 1 Travel. Truly "MORE OF THE WORLD FOR LESS!"

Our guide Ham was absolutely stellar in every way! He was by far the most helpful, friendly and competent guide we have ever had on our many Gate 1 tours! Every day he went far beyond expectations to assure our safety, comfort and overall Morocco experience. He established our group as "family" and he treated us all that way! He made every arrangement for our free time activities, made helpful suggestions, and ensured that our tour outings were top- notch. He shared a depth of knowledge for Morocco which helped us all begin to appreciate his country's rich & complex history. He loves his job and is a wonderful ambassador for Gate 1. Did he add immeasurably to the quality and enjoyment of our Morocco experience? Absolutely! He was what made this trip unforgettable!

Commend our tour manager Aykut as being the best TM of our 27 gate 1 trips Aykut was extremely flexible and accommodating in meeting the individual needs of each one of the 13 travelers on the trip. Special thanks to him for making my birthday special.

Our tour leader Azeddine was beyond OUTSTANDING!! He epitomizes all the qualities of the ideal tour leader. Gate 1 is fortunate to have him representing the brand. We were so lucky to have him as our tour leader! His personality, knowledge and skills made him the most wonderful leader that we have ever had, in all our decades of travel. He personally, made this trip even more wonderful, for us all. ... Other aspiring guides could learn a lot from observing or being taught by him. He is a gem. He is AWESOME.

An Outstanding Guide --Moha with Gate 1 Travel for Morocco trip. Our Morocco trip was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to our incredible local guide, Moha. He went above and beyond every single day to make sure everything ran smoothly and that everyone in our group felt cared for. Moha is exceptionally knowledgeable about Morocco's history, culture and traditions, and he shared it all with warmth and humor. Even when unexpected challenges came up, he handled everything calmly and efficiently-truly making the impossible possible! His kindness, patience and professionalism turned a great trip into an extraordinary one. We're so grateful for all he did to make our journey so special. If you're traveling to Morocco with Gate 1, you'll be very lucky to have Moha as your guide!

We just completed a trip to Jordan with Omar as our guide. This was our 18th trip with Gate 1, and Omar was the best guide we have ever had. He combined incredible knowledge with a great sense of humor. He is an asset to your company.

Our trip to Egypt was fantastic. Highlights were the Great Egyptian Museum and the Giza pyramids. Valley of the Kings, Karnak, and Abu Simbal were also amazing. Our guide, Mohammed, made everything come alive with his knowledge and personality. He was fantastic and really made the trip something special.

Moroccan Allure trip was fabulous. Our tour manager Amine was extraordinary and made the trip so much better for the entire group; he really goes out of his way not only to be personable and informative and organized but helps with lots of other reservations and problems that come up with a smile and a genuine enthusiasm for his job.

I just want to say that our guide, Ahmet, was exceptional. He had excellent historical and current commentary on the places we visited, and a genuinely friendly and helpful attitude. If I knew which tours he would be leading, I would consider them above others. All Gate 1's guides were good, but Ahmet stood out. I really enjoyed this trip!

The excellent marks that I gave our tour manager, Serdar, were very well deserved. He is a top notch tour manager in every respect. There are many reasons I will travel with Gate 1 again, but top among them is providing a great tour manager like Serdar. That is what truly makes a fantastic tour.

The Turkish Odyssey tour was magical; I have tried to spread the word on social media and with my friends and family how wonderful it was. Turkey is a beautiful, diverse, country full of history and unique sites, and I felt very safe there when I was walking around by myself. Aykat is one of the best tour guides I have ever had. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny and he was an important reason for my appreciation of the tour. His enthusiasm was contagious. Even though he had no doubt seen the places we went to repeatedly, he made it seem as fresh as if it was the first time. He promoted other Gate1 tours of Turkey, and I am very tempted to sign up for another, especially if I am lucky enough to land on one of his tours again. I also want to say a few words about Sezgin, our driver. He was clearly very skilled as he handled the occasional heavy traffic and obstacles in narrow roads. I was very impressed with the way he loaned out umbrellas to anyone who had forgotten theirs on one rainy day.

We just returned from "The Birthplace of Civilization" Tuesday departure trip. Our tour guide was named Angela, and our bus driver was Jani. Angela was a perfect tour guide. She had extensive knowledge of Greek history and was very clear and informative in sharing her expertise. She was very much in charge and very personable!!! We were so lucky to have her as the tour guide. We never had to worry about any issues as she was ready and able to solve all issues. Her personality was calm and very pleasant. The driver was a miracle man! THANK YOU!

The Eastern Turkey trip was fantastic. I have recommended it to several people I've met on other trips. Excellent food! The itinerary was very well thought out and interesting. Our guide "Oz" was knowledgeable and organized.

The trip was amazing. Our tour guide, Yucel, was very organized and had so much information to share. I learned so much about the history and culture of Turkey. Our group of 16 became like a family. I loved the balloon ride, the welcome wine event in Cappadocia and my all-time favorite was the boat ride and swim in the Aegean. I would give our tour guide and the itinerary the highest rating possible.

The trip was fantastic. Kudos to everyone involved, from airport greeting and meeting to drop off every gate one representative was excellent but Hussein as tour manager was superb.

Our trip to Greece with Gate 1 was absolutely unforgettable! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, making travel completely stress-free. The hotels, transportation, and daily itineraries were all thoughtfully planned, giving us the perfect balance of sightseeing, history, and relaxation. A special thank you to our guide, Nicholas, who truly made this experience extraordinary. His deep knowledge of Greek history, culture, and mythology brought every site to life, and his passion for sharing his country was inspiring.

I am Greek and this was my 5th trip to Greece (first with Gate 1). I absolutely enjoyed touring my homeland with Jenny. She created a positive vibe with the group and was extremely knowledgeable about everything. Having a background in Archaeology and Art History was such a bonus for our group. We had such local experiences that I feel we wouldn't have with a larger group. I absolutely loved Paros and Naxos!

We recently completed Gate 1's Greece Birthplace of Civilization tour with Joy as our guide. We travel extensively and want to compliment Joy on her excellence as a guide. She is among the very best we have experienced. Her organizational skills and ability to help the group bond were outstanding. Our group was English speaking and her English was exceptionally good. We are at a loss for words to compliment her abilities as a guide. Joy provided a most excellent touring experience.

As first time Gate 1 travelers, my wife and I didn't know what to expect from our trip to Morocco. We are seasoned travelers, but, with the exception of the times we've cruised, we've generally successfully traveled "on our own." Nevertheless, several friends who love to travel explained to us that they have enjoyed traveling with your company, and another couple, with whom we've traveled in the past, especially loved traveling to Morocco with you. Thus, we thought we'd "give it a try," and, as noted in our attached "thank you" notes to our tour leader, Azzedine, our bus driver, Azis, and their assistant, Hassan, as well as in our various Facebook postings, we couldn't have been more impressed! Azzedine, in particular, became like another member of the family to all of our group! We now consider him to be our brother! He was unflappable, organized, knowledgeable, articulate, funny - just an amazing human being! The other local guides, particularly Ali in Rabat, Abdul in Tangier, Hesham in Fez, were also fantastic and added local color to the tour! We loved the additional experiences, including the hosted dinner in Fez and the camel ride in Marrakech. It was truly a trip of a lifetime, and we look forward to future Gate 1 adventures!

Aziz was compassionate, knowledgeable, patient and kind. Furthermore, he was fun. Aziz definitely rates as one of our top guides so far. Melissa and I look forward to more Gate 1 trips. We were sorry to say goodbye to Aziz. The bus driver and his assistant were A+ too.

Gate one sold us on a 15-day trip to Morocco. We came from all over the US-from all different backgrounds and many different preconceived notions of what we were going to experience in Morocco. Because of Ibrahim's guidance, experience and insight, he made our experience complete. There are no words to express our gratitude for Ibrahim's guidance, and we thank him for that. For the two weeks of our tour, he opened our eyes to experience something different. We will never forget what we saw and what we learned from him. He is an excellent guide and a valuable asset to Gate1
