This active program covers a good amount of ground each day. Expect from two to three hours walking on some touring days. The pace is moderate, however, you will encounter some uneven surfaces, stairs, steps. There are some visits including Wadi Bani Khalid which require walking a mile with rough steps and an uneven path. Expect long drives, about two to three hours, between sites in Oman and UAE. Weather is very pleasant during the day from October through April but sometimes it becomes a little cold and windy in the evening. Dubai is an ultra-modern U.A.E. city built from desert sands. The majority of Dubai's citizens are foreign born and your tour manager will likely have foreign roots. Dubai's culture is diverse. Dress code will vary, and your tour manager will advise when and which sites require modest attire. This is a Small Group program. For more information, click here.

In these days of lingering Covid 19 impact, travel, while opening up, can still be a challenge. Gate 1 Travel made the journey my wife and I took to Oman and the United Arab Emirates a great experience from the moment we booked the tour. We were kept well informed of all of the Covid 19 protocols up until the last few days before our departure. I have to give particular thanks to Shonda (hope that is the correct spelling) who provided invaluable assistance in confirming our airline arrangements after a couple of hiccups with the airline prior to our departure. Much appreciation to Shonda and the Gate 1 airline staff! Attia was a top notch tour manager and guide from the moment we met him in Muscat, Oman until we bid our farewells in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. More than just a guide he was a teacher, concierge, historian and friend who paid attention to every detail during our journey. Masoud was a superb tour guide throughout our time in Oman. He and Attia worked perfectly together to make journey through Oman a very special adventure. All of the accommodations were outstanding and the drivers were excellent-we always felt safe traveling to each destination. The local meals on this journey were especially delicious! Kudos to Maryam and the amazing meal she prepared for our small group of 9 in her lovely home. Thank you once again Gate 1 Discovery Tours for a job well done!

I want to mention our local guide in Oman, Mr. Masoud. He was the one welcoming us in Oman and taking the group on the first day of sightseeing. He was an absolute delight to have all throughout Oman. He was eager to assist and answer questions and he provided loads of information. Besides, he was always perfectly groomed in the local garb and he had a charming, gentle disposition. I also like to mention the lunch at the Khana Khazana restaurant in Muscat. The service was excellent and the food was delicious.

The trip to Jordan was phenomenal. It was the best travel experience I have had. Our guide and tour manager Waleed was considerate and went to every effort to make sure our visit a pleasant and memorable one. If I ever get the chance to go back to Jordan, I would!
Robin B. Opelika, AL
The trip was outstanding and exceeded my expectations! Our exceptional guide, Hend, deserves acknowledgement for performing extraordinary knowledge, professionalism, warmth and ensuring everyone had the best possible travel experiences!

Trip went off without a hitch. We were surprised at the efficiency, not used to being walked through airports. The air you booked was perfect. Tour guide in Dubai (Lourdes) was way over the top outstanding. In fact, we think Gate 1 should hire her to teach and inspire other tour guides.
