I called this morning and was connected to Ms. Rodriguez. This lady absolutely made our day by patiently going through her system and taking much more time than necessary but ultimately finding an option for us to fly from Las Vegas to/from Amsterdam and Basil. Moreover, she was able to find us a fare that upgraded us to premium economy which is cheaper than the cost of our round-trip flights to/from NYC. Additionally, we would not need to spend time and money for two extra days in a hotel in NYC!! Imagine this...more comfortable flying in premium economy, less hassle in checking in/out of hotels, saved two days and much more economical overall!! This does not happen often!
Ms. Rodriguez helped us tirelessly, patiently, compassionately and with an upmost professional attitude! Because of her, Gate 1 absolutely and unequivocally earned my trust and continued business. This company is lucky to have someone like Ms. Rodriguez working for them. Cudos to Gate 1 and Ms. Rodriguez!! Thank you so much.

Greece is beautiful from Thessaloniki to Athens to the Islands of Mykonos and Santorini. The tour guide, Angeliki, deserves her name. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, she is kind, gracious, and treats everyone as if they are the most important traveler. Our return flight was cancelled out of Santorini, and other travelers from other groups were affected, and the three Gate1 Tour Guides returned to the airport and made sure we were rebooked, had hotel plans for the night, and took care of us until we were on our way to our destinations. This is my third trip with Gate1 and I will book more tours with them. Shout out to our Diver on the mainland, Nikos, who an such a sweet gentleman, and our drivers Takis and Demetrios. Not to mention Yianis & Mariana who treated us as we were in their group during the flight fiasco, and then the lovely Constantine - all the people who work for Gate1 deserve our kudos.
