What travelers are saying

"We have loved Gate 1 and always sing their praises. We've been on 7 tours with another one booked for fall. We were supposed to leave for Ecuador this week, however the country is in a 60 day state of emergency with the escape of 2 infamous gang members. Tourists are advised to stay indoors and there is a daily curfew from 11pm-5am. (our flight was to land at 11:15pm). Our trip included stays in 2 of the main cities of unrest. There have been shootings, car bombings, hostage taking, closing of embassies, and other countries issuing do not travel warnings. Other tour companies have cancelled tours or offered refunds or rescheduling. Travel insurance does not cover wars or civil unrest, but we are clearly afraid to go there. Both we and our travel agent have reached out multiple times with our concerns and asked if we could reschedule or get some sort of credit. We continue to get the same reply either in person or via email...Gate 1 has your safety as our highest priority and we feel you are safe ("they are not targeting tourists") and your itinerary should not be impacted. What? Their highest priority is $ and not our safety. There is no way that's the tour we anticipated. We cancelled the trip and took a 90% penalty, loss of deposit, and $276 airline penalty. It's a LOT of money, but we would have been terrified, and it's not worth getting hurt or worse. Sorry, but it's not the company I want to do business with in the future."

What travelers are saying

"We just returned from a memorable 10-day trip to Morocco, customized for our group of 4 by Morocco Tours. From first contact with Brian in the US, through the process of customizing our trip, handling the logistics with Bethany, and the tour itself, Morocco Tours was always professional, responsive, timely, attentive to detail and to our needs, and ready to help. They set up an itinerary that included Fes, Marrakech, Rabat, Essaouira, and stops in between such as the Roman ruins of Volubilis. Each riad or hotel was unique and a treat in itself, and we were able to sample a variety of great food through the restaurants the company chose. Our guide, Youssef Maamri, drove us everywhere and stayed with us throughout, always understanding, helpful and accommodating. His pride and love for his country were apparent in his infectious enthusiasm as he educated us about Moroccan history and culture. We feel we have made a friend! Thanks to the professionalism of the company and its excellent staff, we have come back with wonderful memories and a new appreciation for the ancient culture of Morocco and its people."

What travelers are saying

"I am profoundly dissatisfied with the level of customer service and information provided by this travel agency. Throughout the entire process, they have been unhelpful. Initially, they failed to inform us about all the necessary documents required for the trip, leading to a situation where we were unable to board our flight due to missing documentation, which was only discovered upon reaching the airport. When expressing this concern to WingBuddy, their response was that it was not their responsibility to inform us about such matters. Additionally, after being advised by them to book our own flight to Dubai and assured they would handle our return flight, we had to follow up with them multiple times to receive a response. Eventually, they informed us that we needed to purchase our own return flight, providing no assistance despite their initial suggestion. As a result, we incurred significantly higher expenses, paying three times the original cost due to WingBuddy's lack of information and assistance. Furthermore, we not only paid for the full package with WingBuddy but also had to cover the expenses for our flights to and from Dubai, as well as transportation to meet the rest of the group and entrance fees for attractions. Overall, I am thoroughly disappointed with the experience and strongly advise against booking with them."
