We want you to see more of the world for less in style and comfort. For this reason, all escorted tours by Gate 1 are designed by our team with first class in mind. We scour the globe for the highest quality hotels, experiences and food at the most competitive, affordable prices. Plus, when you book your tour with flights, all baggage and transfers are included!
Here at Gate 1, we strive to help you see “More of the World for Less.” We go much further than providing you with plain old affordable packages. We want you to enjoy the highest level of service, all the best luxuries, and travel in style at the same affordable rates.
You won’t see any hostels included with a Gate 1 tour. We want you to be as comfortable as possible! You’ll be staying at top hotels like DoubleTree by Hilton in London, the Divani Caravel in Greece, and Century Park Hotel in Bangkok. All rooms come equipped with air conditioners, flat screen TV’s and top quality food available. These hotels are so beautiful, you’ll be amazed that the cost is included in your package price. You can even have a look at what hotels you’ll be staying at before you leave by looking at them in the ‘Featured Hotels’ page of your package. Best of all, the hotels we choose are either close to the city centre or where your tour starts so you can spend more time exploring and less time getting to and from places.
We love to show you the best our destinations have to offer, which includes straying from the beaten track from time to time. Go to Italy and see bucket list sites like the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Colosseum, but also visit family owned Tuscan farms and enjoy a day trip to the Isle of Capri. Or whilst in South Africa spend a day on safari, but journey on to eSwatini for an immersive cultural experience that teaches you songs, dance and traditional customs. There is so much to see in every country and we want you to experience as much of it as possible in the most authentic way.
We know how important a tour manager can be on your trip. They can add so much value to your tour by giving you insider knowledge and insight on the destination. They’ll show you the best restaurants in town to the hidden gems of each city. They make sure the group is having a good time and ensure the tour is running at a smooth pace. For all these reasons we’ve made sure your tours are led by the best in the industry. Your Gate 1 tour manager will be friendly, knowledgeable, highly trained, and, of course, English speaking. We guarantee they’ll be one of the reasons you’ll look back and say, “wow, they included a lot on our trip!”
Food is arguably the best part of travelling to a new country and it needs to be high quality to leave a lasting impression! Gate 1 tours include many meals to save you time and money on your trip. Every restaurant you visit is constantly reviewed and rated by our travellers to ensure that every dish you have is a memorable one. Plus, there’s plenty of free time for you to indulge in the local gastronomic delights at your own pace.
It’s easy for little things to slip through the cracks when you travel. That’s why we’ve taken care of them for you! Most importantly, we want the booking process to be hassle free, so when you book a package with Gate 1 and add flights, baggage and transfers are taken care of for you with no hidden fees or taxes. We’ll even handle the flight delays and lost baggage for you, should the worst happen, thanks to our 24 hour emergency phone line. When travelling from each destination you’ll be placed on our coaches, which are extremely comfortable, air conditioned and are equipped with a bathroom for the longer hauls. We’ve also tipped the doorman for you ahead of time, so leave your wallet at the hotel – all gratuities are included in your package price.
Gate 1 offers quality escorted tours, river cruises and independent vacations for the lowest price possible. We are able to offer such amazing value thanks to our relationships with like minded suppliers and with the help of our global network of staff and tour managers.
