This was our first trip booked through Gate1 Travel although a friend has used them before with the same excellent results. We originally booked a trip to China but due to political tensions between the Chinese government and Canada we decided to switch our destination. Gate1 easily accommodated our request for a nominal fee. We chose their 8 Day Essential Greece tour for this October. Gate1 had a representative to meet our plane as we landed in Athens and escorted us to our hotel answering questions and providing commentary along the way making the ride through rush hour traffic quite pleasant. Our guide for the tour was Constantinous Sfikas and I doubt if there is a better guide to Grecian culture and history. His knowledge is deep, expansive and always at the ready. No question is too obscure and all are answered with a smile and a friendly attitude. He knew all the tricks, best places and interesting stories that make ancient Greece live again for our group. His knowledge and skill maneuvered us through the ancient sites in a way that we avoided the crowds and always obtained the best possible experiences. I highly recommend Constantinous and any trip he guides as well as Gate1 for their excellent service.
