Thank you! This trip exceeded my expectations. The description was a walking trip. But it was a hiking adventure. I was so pleased about that. Beautiful scenery, Challenging trails. Our guides were warm, engaging, intelligent, and fun! The accommodations were comfortable and inviting. Food out of this world! Thank you again, Gate 1 for another memorable and fulfilling adventure.

My trip to Croatia was wonderful and I just wanted to say that both the guides were OUTSTANDING. The guides make the whole experience. Traveling solo is hard but knowing the guides are well informed about the areas and so organized makes it so much easier.

The Greece Walking Tour was great! We enjoyed everything about the trip from the natural beauty of Zagori and Meteora, to the history and culture of the small villages and towns, to Mountain Tea and Mountain Music, to the stone bridges, Vikos Gorge, the monasteries, the Pindus Range and the amazing rock formations. We also had great accommodations and food throughout the trip. Our guide and driver Dimitris and Gregory were both personable, knowledgeable and accommodating, and made our trip completely stress-free. Thank you Gate 1 for a wonderful itinerary and unforgettable trip.

The walking tour of Croatia was amazing! Our guides Ivan and Mate were fabulous, funny, fit, and friendly. I travelled with my son, one of my childhood friends and her daughter and we all loved the experience. We loved the surprise Olive Oil tasting at the beginning and all of the group meals. The hikes were challenging, but not too much so, with plenty of opportunities for breaks. Our little group of four added on two days in Split and two days in Dubrovnik which allowed us time to explore the cities, too. When we were in Korcula, we opted not to go on the hike to the Mljet park so that we could let some sore joints heal and spend a day immersing in the town. The hotels were well appointed and generally located in convenient areas. Unfortunately the Hotel Lapad is on a street that has been under construction for a while. Hopefully, the street and promenade will be completed in the next year or so. But that didn't stop us from enjoying our stay there. Each of the hotels on our trip were well appointed, had great staff, fabulous breakfast buffets, and were close to restaurants, beaches and historic sights. We also met some wonderful folks, shared contact information, and hope to travel with them again! I've told everyone that Croatia was my favorite European country thus far...the Adriatic Sea was gorgeous, the red tile roofs were classic, the history was all around us, and the people were so friendly.

Our trip was wonderful. We fell in love with Croatia and our two walking guides, Ivan and Mate. The walking and hiking were wonderful. I would prefer more trail hiking. Some of our walking was on roads, but nevertheless, lovely. I would say at least half of our group really were not hikers and by the last two days, these folks were done. Ivan was very patient and worked well with them. I cannot say enough about the great organization, care, accommodations, and patience of Ivan and Mate. Fantastic trip.

We had an amazing hiking trip to Greece! Thanks to our tour guides, Dimitri and Angelos for keeping us safe when hiking on difficult terrains. Our driver, Gregory, went the extra mile taking us downtown one evening even though he was supposedly off duty. We enjoyed meeting everyone in our small group and developed friendships with many. The hotels are excellent. The food was superb. We couldn't have a better tour! This isn't our first tour with Gate1 and it won't be our last. Gate 1 has continually surprised us on every trip we have taken so far. Looking forward to our next in November and April next year. Thank you again for another memorable experience.

In a word, AMAZING. Our hikes, the islands, meals, special tastings and the guides were incredible!

Wow, great trip! Closer to hiking tour than walking tour, but still very enjoyable! Our two local guides were fantastic!

The Jordan walking tour was AMAZING!! Our guides were fabulous, they helped immerse us into the culture and show us so much of Jordan! Everyone was incredibly flexible and worked with the group's wants, needs, and abilities. Several things changed during the visit but everyone was flexible and I did not feel like we missed out on anything. I have a food allergy and everyone was very accommodating of my needs at every stop. Abrahim, our one guide, modified plans based on weather, group needs, and contacted the main office as needed based on group feedback. Thankfully we were able to do the back hike to get into Petra which was AMAZING! We were able to see just about the entire place and avoided the crowds due to the trek that we took which worked out fabulously! The only complaint was that I wish we had more time at the Dead Sea. We had enough time to go in for a bit, thankfully. We were at the resort for maybe 5 hours before it was time to leave for the airport. Overall amazing trip!

I just wanted to take the time to say how close to perfect our Walking Tour of Costa Rica was. We have been hiking for every vacation we've taken over the last two years and it was everything we were prepared for and more. Jose was the best guide and accommodated everyone in our small group very well (I could not imagine being in a large group of 20, which is what the max size of this group could have been on paper. ) I was expecting to have an actual packed lunch (picnic carried in my pack) but instead we had full sit-down lunches. You should go ahead and put that in your itinerary. I was prepared for the hikes to be a little tougher but was still very much challenged on the hikes marked "challenging"). The one thing we were lucky to NOT needing to be prepared for was the weather, since we had unusually nice dry weather for the season. There was nothing in our preparation materials that described the humidity (not unlike my hometown, but the folks from the northern US were less prepared for how that would afftect their abilities). Also, if it did rain, the hikes would have been even tougher. I know you write the itineraries broadly for the whole year, but still, a weather expectation email closer to the date would have been nice. The accommodations at the Xandari were phenomenal. Shorter time at the coffee plantation so we could hike the waterfalls at the Xandari would have been nice. Also to add in an optional zipline somewhere. I loved the coffee plantation tour and thought it was super informative and fun. All of the dinner and lunch choices were amazing.

Just wanted to recognize our wonderful tour manager, Jose. He goes above and beyond at all times. Geo was an absolute pleasure as well. They both shared a TON of knowledge, and gave us a great tour of their wonderful country. Hector, the tour bus driver made us feel so safe. His driving was soothing and we felt like we could immediately trust him. Thank you Jose, Geo, and Hector for keeping us safe and giving us such an amazing experience.
