I agree with other people on this site…
I agree with other people on this site about the customer service. I have been on one other trip with Gate 1 and it was great and the customer service was great. I booked a tour in 2018 that we still have not been able to take. It has been cancelled by Gate 1 THREE TIMES. So here we are in 2022, was scheduled to fly out this morning and lo and behold Gate 1 called at 1pm yesterday telling me that my trip was yet again cancelled. No empathy, no solutions, no "I'm Sorry", nothing. I have had to scramble 3 times to reschedule airline flights for 5 people. I have spent hours on the phone with airlines(literally hours), and here we are, years later and still have not taken the trip. It's almost comical. As an advisory, NEVER assume that a Gate 1 trip will actually be a go, and don't have any expectations for their customer service. But the actual trip(once you get there) is very good. It's the company itself that sucks. Do not let the response fool you. This is a company that has cancelled on me at the last minute 3 TIMES for the same trip that I booked in 2018!!!!, each time I had already purchased airline tickets and have spent countless hours on the phone trying to rectify the situation. I want to add that the worst part of the situation is that never once have they apologized, acted like they cared at all and have NEVER tried to help me book another trip or work with me in ANY way. I would steer clear of this company and many like it, because no matter if you cancel or they cancel they will do everything in their power to keep your money and make it as difficult as possible to get it back and their customer "no" service is rude and unhelpful. Go to a smaller company or just do everything yourself is my only advice. These people are just too far removed from being human.
