The trip was Spectacular!!! Everything went perfect! I have told everyone who asks me about it how great it was and how wonderful Gate 1 was. Dani, our tour Manager was Awesome!! She made our trip so great. She was a wealth of information. She thought of everything. Your company is lucky to have her!! I would go on a trip with her anytime and anywhere! First time with Gate 1 and I will use you again!

From start to finish this was a wonderful and thoroughly enjoyable vacation. Our tour guide Danielle (Dani) was a delightful, super efficient, tour guide who always had a smile on her face, could fix any issues or problems quickly while making it all look effortless. She was extremely well versed on information on all aspects of the sights we were seeing or going to. We learned a lot of facts and history while journeying along from stop to stop. We had a fresh supply of cold water available each and every day, as well as snacks for longer times on the bus, before meal destinations were reached. She was a true gem. Our bus driver John, was a super bus driver, and drove the mountain roads with skill and care always with his passengers safety first and foremost. Our day in Yellowstone with our Park Ranger, Kimberly, was yet another information packed day. We never would have learned so much and seen so much without her. It was a great addition to our tour. This was our first “bus tour”, and would take another with Gate 1 again. The ease of entering and exiting all the parks and venues was again, one of the highlights. Parking, entrance fees, etc. was all handled as we watched single cars search for parking spots and wait in line to pay fees. All and all, it was truly one of our best vacations and we look forward to joining another Gate 1 tour in the future.

The trip was great and we had a lot of fun. Dani Moore, our tour guide, is a class act! She was wonderful, knowledgeable and fun. We definitely had a memorable experience. Our driver, John, was great as well and just as agreeable and friendly. Terrific driving and parking skills!

We had a great trip! Our tour manager Keri was excellent. The bus driver Mark was Excellent. We would recommend this trip to anyone. Gate 1 Travel does a great job.

Leslie made this one of the most memorable trips that we have ever taken. She was absolutely fabulous and amazing! She was so full of information that we would have never known about our sights. All the hotels, meals, bus, bus driver, and sights were awesome!! NO COMPLAINTS ABOUT ANYTHING!! We are already thinking about another trip with Gate 1 for next year! I would not hesitate to recommend your company at all!! Thank you for a great trip!!

It was our first group trip and we really enjoyed it. Our tour director and driver (Liz and Jim) did a great job of looking after us and showing us the sights. We would definitely recommend the Gate 1 Alaska tour we did to anyone.

The trip was great and our guide, Kelly, was exceptional. I was very impressed with his wealth of knowledge as well as his efforts to accommodate and please everyone no matter what the situation. We couldn't have been more satisfied with the trip and our guide. Plus the weather was perfect and the animals throughout Yellowstone were extremely cooperative by appearing frequently. Will definitely travel with Gate 1 in the future.

My travel partner and I had a great trip. This was our fourth with Gate 1 and was again a fantastic and enjoyable trip with our great views of Yellowstone, Old Faithful, and an abundance of wild animals. The tour guide was well informed and had good control of a large group of diverse people. I'm sure we will take another journey with Gate 1.

The trip was great. I really appreciated our tour manager Timothy. He went over and above to make our trip the best. His personality is perfect for a tour manager. Chris our driver was good also. Always there with a bottle of water. This was our fifth Gate 1 trip and we will be using you guys again. The dinners that were either included or booked as an extra were also great. Good job Gate 1.

Trip was fantastic, made so by our tour director, Kerry. He was very organized, enthusiastic,knowledgeable and always went above and beyond to show us everything he thought we might be interested in, and made everything we did fun. He is passionate about the outdoors and the parks and that made the trip. In our opinion we could not have had a better leader. He organized speakers that were extremely interesting, especially Peter the Navajo Code Talker, as well as a dutch oven lunch and picnic lunches so we could spent more time seeing everything. Our bus driver was amazing as well. She handled that bus with amazing expertise, and was always happy.

Trip was great and we had a fantastic time. From the red rocks of Sedona to Old Faithful and Mt. Rushmore, to the bison and bears we saw, we were constantly in awe of things we had previously only seen in pictures. We even got to watch the Mormon Tabernacle Choir practice for their broadcast. Our guide, Leslie, was terrific, so personable, organized and informative on the areas we visited. Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone considering seeing the national parks. So many natural wonders out there!

It was wonderful. The tour guide (Kelly) and the bus driver (Jimmy) were great and went far above duty for all of us.

We had a wonderful time on our trip. Our tour manager Pam was very helpful, organized and informative. Our bus driver Terry was very friendly and he always greeted everyone with a friendly smile. We would highly recommend Gate 1 Travel to our family and friends! Thank you for making our trip so enjoyable!

It was wonderful. No complaints whatsoever. Loved our guide, Karen, and our motor coach operator, Jimmy. Both were very professional and fun to be with.

It's a great trip, we loved it, and a good experience. 1st time with Gate 1. The manager and coach driver were very nice and friendly. Thanks for providing us a wonderful trip.

The trip was wonderful. The weather was great, and the tour guide was efficient, informative, interested, and caring. We look forward to thinking about our next trip in the future.

It was a great trip; one of our best. Kelly was a superb leader and very knowledgeable about the areas we visited. Great group and wonderful that it was only 19 people.

Our trip was wonderful and very informative. Kelly made it very enjoyable and interesting knowing the history of all the places. This was our 3rd trip with Gate 1 and I have not been disappointed with any.

We had a very wonderful tour to Copper Canyon in Mexico. Sergio, our tour director, was not only knowledgeable with Mexican history and indigenous cultures but he was also a fantastic singer! We really enjoyed his singing with the Mariachi and other performers. It was another great tour with Gate 1.

We both had a wonderful trip. I definitely would recommend this musical tour of the South trip and would do another trip through Gate 1.

Our, guide, Kris, was knowledgeable, caring, and had a sense of humor. Our local guide, in the French Quarter, Karen, was fabulous. We learned so much of the history of Louisiana. Hotels were fine. The meals on Gate 1 were excellent, and gave us a good taste of Cajun cooking. The farewell dinner, at The Creole School of Cooking, was good, and the Chef was not only a good chef, but a really good entertainer. Enjoyed the other local guides also.

We had a great time in New Orleans. Our tour guide Kris did an all around great job. She was attentive, helpful, knowledgable, entertaining and a pleasure to be around.

Our trip was just wonderful!! Probably one of the best we have been on including Gate 1. The hotels were just great & your Tour Manager Kris Kimball & bus driver "T" could not have been better. Took care of everything from start to finish. She was so helpful & the Gate 1 Team had really done their homework of all the Great & Unusual places we visited & ate our meals. New Orleans was great-only place we would have added was visit to WWII museum, Baton Rouge was marvelous but our favorite was Thurs. March 23-Cajun Country-places we visited like McGee's Landing, Vermilionville, Martin's Accordion Center, and dinner at Randol's ALL VERY UNUSUAL & A REAL TREAT, Of course the Tabasco factory a must (main reason we went, just sorry they were not bottling on our day & wish we could have had a guided tour); New Orleans Cooking School & Farewell dinner with Kevin Bolton a real treat!!! he was marvelous & the food just great!!! All in all beyond our expectations!!! Again Kris was GREAT & "T" marvelous...Optional tours were just grand!! Laura Plantation & Nottoway Plantation well worth the cost!!!

Fabulous, we had a great tour guide and each town was better than the next ! Thanks for all your help.

The trip was great, the tour manager, driver, hotels and itinerary arrangements are excellent, it was nice, thanks!

It was a terrific trip. All the accommodations and activities were great. Bacho, our tour leader, did a very good job. The biggest bonus that I enjoyed was all the meals that were included. I'm already looking forward to my next trip in June!

It was AWESOME! The Hotel Provincial was spectacular - and we really enjoyed the NCL cruise (we have cruised many times, but this was the first time on NCL). Everything that Gate 1 arranged, including the transport to the ship and the walking tour of New Orleans French Quarter, worked out perfectly... Thanks again. You guys have done right by us four times now... and we're planning another big vacation through you/Discovery Tours!

It was another incredible trip arranged by Gate 1 Travel; and felt we got two vacations for the price of one - 3 nights in New Orleans and 7-day cruise to the Western Caribbean. It was such a great contrast to combine both. The Astor Crowne Plaza in New Orleans was perfect - close walking distance to French Quarter, restaurants and sights. Thank you!

It was absolutely wonderful. The scenery was stunning. The hotels were great. The best part of the whole trip was the tour manager, Bacho. He handle everything that was thrown at him in a very professional manner and is very knowledgeable and proud of his country and it showed. This makes me want to go on another Gate 1 tour. Please send him a job well done from me.

I had a great time and I believe most of it was due to Bacho our tour guide! He really made the trip for us. He is so knowledgeable, so organized, so polite and I felt very well taken care of. He's the best tour guide I've ever experienced.

The trip to Copper Canyon exceeded our expectations. At the top of the list of excellence was the Tour Manager, Bacho, who handled all details of the trip from start to finish with efficiency and attention to detail. The hotel rooms were above expectation; the meals were delicious; the itinerary was spectacular, the motorcoach was comfortable, and the interaction with other travelers was delightful. (The weather was a bit colder than expected … but that was the only downside to the trip.) We’ve done a lot of traveling around the United States and the World … and this trip was one of the best. The scenery was breathtaking as we rode the train through this section of Mexico and it was fascinating to interact with the native Tarahumara people in the Canyon region. All other activities on the tour were meaningful and worthwhile. What a marvelous way to celebrate our 48th Wedding Anniversary. Thanks to Gate 1 for their coordination of the trip and thanks to Bacho for his knowledge, his enthusiasm, and his personality.

I had a great time. Everything went smoothly starting with the arrival at the airport in New Orleans and the prepaid transportation to the hotel through the cruise on the Norwegian Dawn. Great weather; great food; cruise guests that were out to have fun and meet new people. The Astor Crowne Plaza is a great location from which to explore New Orleans and the personnel on the Norwegian Dawn wanted to make sure every guests was accommodated and enjoying themselves. Loved the ports, particularly the new private island at Harvest Caye.

This is a very late response to your recent enquiry. I only just returned this week from the Copper Canyon Trip. I decided to spend some time on my own, cruising the California coast. I'm happy to tell you I have no complaints with this Mexican adventure. The trip was well organized, hotels throughout our journey were excellent and we had the good fortune to have a guide and driver who did an exceptional job keeping us entertained, informed and moving flawlessly. I want to thank them, they are responsible for making so much of this trip a memorable adventure. Equally so, I should mention that the "Home Team" performed admirably. All of my questions and reservation were answered and processed efficiently. Thanks to all concerned. This was not my first trip with Gate 1, not my last. So please be ready to handle my next request as well as the last one.

We had a wonderful time with a great tour guide, Carlos. We saw the real Mexico.

Fantastic! Our tour guide Kris was lovely and very informative. We enjoyed every aspect of our tour. It was a dream come true. We've wanted to visit New Orleans for so long. Thank you.

I thought the trip was excellent! This was my first time using Gate 1 and I was very pleased with the experience from start to finish. The initial reservation process was easy. Good information was provided in advance. The trip itself was so well organized and packed in a lot over the eight days. We had an excellent tour guide (Muriel) and coach driver (Jerry). They were really the face of your company on this trip, and you should be very proud of their services. Also, the accommodations were so comfortable, specially Majestic View Lodge at Zion which was stunning! And the baggage delivery to and from our rooms, throughout the trip, was a nice touch! Overall, I feel I definitely got good value for the money spent. So I am already planning to use Gate 1 again, and have recommended it to family and friends who inquired about this trip.

The trip was fantastic, as were our guide, Liz, and bus driver, Jimmy. The trip was very well planned and executed. I learned so much. Liz treated us with lots of info and candy, and her delicious sense of humor. Jimmy is a superior driver, as is his sense of humor. I feel so fortunate.

We had a great time and the fall colors were vibrant and plentiful. Our guide Steve and our driver Joann took very good care of us. We felt safe and informed. Our hotels were very nice for the most part. We had plenty of lobster and butter sauce and clam chowder. We had a very good group of fellow travelers. We use Gate 1 to take us to places that we have never been and don't feel confident enough to go on our own. We made memories to last a lifetime. We are looking forward to our next trip with Gate 1.

It was excellent! My husband and I enjoyed the different scheduled stops we made and the optional tours. Each hotel and resort was wonderful in its own way! Our tour guide Carolyn was friendly and organized and the bus driver Paul did a great job driving on all the winding roads as well as interstates. It was our first experience on an escorted tour and we were very pleased with Gate 1.

The trip was wonderful. Everything was beautifully and smoothly planned. Our guide, Monica, was excellent, the highest rating!! Gate 1 gets highest marks. In addition, the weather was gorgeous, the route and the sights were over the top, the driver was outstanding. We were thrilled. Many thanks to you and your staff.

Our trip was spectacular!! We had the best tour coordinator, Denise Healey, and the best bus driver, Russ Brown. Our group all got along really well and we saw so many beautiful scenes. Lots of bison, deer. We also saw elk and some baby bears. In Yellowstone, we spotted a wolf, which our guide says is a rare sighting. Denise made it so fun with music that fit the mood or landscape, DVD video on some of the history of places and people of the areas we visited. Weather was close to perfect too!

This was one of the BEST trips we have ever been on. Bill (tour guide) was professional, funny, personable and delightful to be with. We would love to be on another tour with Bill as our guide. Vic was excellent as our coach driver. His experience as a driver was second to none. We felt safe and secure with Vic driving. The tour was so beautiful with all the wonderful stops we made...we had no idea that there was so much to see and do in the area travelled. It has left us with the desire to return again and see more of what our country has to offer. We have been raving about this trip to our family and friends. The accommodations were great....even though the stay inside Yellowstone Park was a bit more "rustic" then what we were used to. It added to the ambiance. Our group was wonderful...we truly became "family" as our tour progressed. There were lots of laughs and camaraderie with our traveling companions. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Gate 1 did a fantastic job all around. Thanks for a memorable trip. We look forward to many more happy travels....

Yes, we had a great trip. Our 3rd one with Gate 1 and the best one yet. We had great weather, which always makes a difference, but we also had great Gate 1 service from the time that we arrived at the airport until we departed. The guide, Keri and the driver, Matt were both very familiar with Alaska as Keri was born and raised in Fairbanks and they had both hiked and explored in many of the areas that we visited. It was quite a surprise to all of us on the tour when they told us on the last day that they had never worked together before, because they made an excellent team. Both of them were always looking for ways to go above and beyond what was necessary to be sure that everyone had a great experience. They both deserve recognition for a job well done.

We had a great trip! Our guide, Leah, was wonderful - she was organized, respectful to her Gate 1 guests and able to "roll with the punches" no matter what happened. The hotels were nice, especially the final hotel (Little America in Salt Lake City). The meals furnished by Gate1 were all excellent! Little America Hotel in Salt Lake City did an awesome job with the Farewell Dinner we were served there. We enjoyed all the sights and National Parks we toured. This tour covered a lot of distance on the bus, but the sights we saw made it worth traveling that far! I highly recommend it to anyone who has never seen Crazy Horse, Mt Rushmore, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Jackson, WY!

Our trip was fantastic! The scenery was gorgeous, a fulfillment of my dream to see some of the West and Rocky Mountain National Parks. The accommodations and food were good. Our tour guide, Timothy, and bus driver, Bob were the best. Timothy was very knowledgeable about the parks, shared the information in an interesting way..even with music and videos and treated us to a few goodies. He was always cordial and friendly to all and smoothed over any ruffles with humor. He was a wonderful tour guide...keep him. I would go on another trip with him. The trip was well run and efficient but allowed the group members some individual time.
