Another reason for Americans is the strong U.S. dollar. The price of G-TOUR would have dropped from almost $3300 when it was first advertised to just over $2500 today, a saving of almost $800 per person. However, thanks to governments' track record of capriciously imposing and changing entry requirements, I don't know when or even if we'll give G-TOUR another try.
