    · May 7th, 2024
    We have previously travelled with Gate 1 Small Group tours with great success. Our travel agent recommended Insight Vacations for our Scandinavia vacation. We liked their itinerary and booked their small group tour six months in advance. Two months before the trip our tour was cancelled "due to operational reasons and lack of participation". We requested but were refused compensation for costs incurred related to our unrecoverable travel and insurance expenses for this cancellation. They said, "read our fine print, we do not have to compensate you." DO NOT TRUST Insight Vacations. Never again. Go with Gate 1.
