Out Adventures did a fantastic job putting together this tour of South Africa and Zambia.
South Africa & Victoria Falls In StyleNot only were the visits to Cape Town, Sabi Sands and Victoria Falls perfect in every way, Robert and the Out Adventures Team put together an outstanding set of hotels, guides, events, restaurants and tours.

Peru: The Amazon & Machu PicchuThis was my third trip with Out Adventures, and I am still not sure how they do it, but they always have the best guides, activities and itineraries.

An ecologically- and culturally-responsible vacation.
Peru: The Amazon & Machu PicchuIt exceeded my expectations. Not only was the gay Peru tour a fun vacation but it was also an ecologically- and culturally-responsible vacation.

It turned out to be a trip of a lifetime!
Iceland: Countryside & Reykjavik PrideTHIS was a tour I went on to appease my partner, I truly was nervous about an “active” adventure. Truth is it turned out to be a trip of a lifetime! Spectacular country with beautiful views, great tour guide, the other travelers were super, and a wonderful itinerary that, as an active one, wasn’t so active that it wore me out! Our days were full and wonderful and I would definitely travel with Out Adventures again. We are already planning our next trip!

Out Adventures organized an incredible itinerary and the perfect survey trip for the southern part of Africa.
South Africa & Victoria Falls In StyleWith all of the highlights of Cape Town as well as an amazing safari experience and Victoria Falls, the trip really touched on the best of what Africa has to offer. Accommodations in Cape Town were incredible and other highlights included our day with the Wine Fairy, our many animal encounters, and our exploration of the falls.

Traveling by sea is most definitely the way to see Croatia. And I look forward to my next trip with Out Adventures.
Croatia: Gay Dalmatia CruiseThis was my first time traveling as part of an organized, large group and it exceeded my expectations. Croatia is an incredibly beautiful country, especially once you reach the Adriatic (Dalmatian) Coast. Arid mountains, clear azure waters, big sky, sheltered coves and historic towns and villages. The landscape, the architecture, the history and the people, all wonderful. The pure joy of that experience, including the endless laughter shared among old friends and new, I will cherish forever. Kudos to Rob, Out Adventures and our Croatian expert guide Livio. They were truly committed to ensuring that each and every person had the very best experience possible. Traveling by sea is most definitely the way to see Croatia. And I look forward to my next trip with Out Adventures.
John B
Great trip, people and place
Galapagos Gay CruiseGreat trip, people and places. Well organized, relaxed, fun.

Too many highlights to list.
India: Holi Festival ForayToo many highlights to list. I loved Taj Mahal but also loved meandering through the crowds in the old towns. Amazing.

This was hands down the best run, most relaxed and restorative holiday I've ever taken.
Croatia: Gay Dalmatia CruiseThis was hands down the best run, most relaxed and restorative holiday I’ve ever taken. At no time did I ever feel like I wasn’t being looked after or needed to worry about anything. Truly exceptionally well planned and executed

Get ready for something life-changing
Tanzania: Kilimanjaro Gay ClimbGet ready for something life-changing. Honestly the hardest trip I’ve done physically mentally and emotionally, that paid off physically mentally and emotionally. If you’re willing to put in the effort you’ll reap the rewards.
Aaron B
We had an amazing time!
Cuba: New Year FiestaWe had an amazing time—made even better by a guide who spoke the language and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy.

A great way to cover a lot of ground
Thailand: New Year CelebrationIt’s a great way to cover a lot of ground in countries that might be daunting, or impossible to negotiate otherwise. Deluxe, comfortable, professional, fun.
Brian F
Well organized.
Budapest & Slovenia: Castles, Caves & Culinary EscapadesExcellent cross of activities and sites to see. Well organized. Having local guides that support LGBT causes makes it feel like family!
Frank M
Meet new friends and all done with style & class!! It was one of my most memorable vacations ever.
Croatia: Gay Dalmatia CruiseWhat a great way to see you Croatia, meet new friends and all done with style & class!! It was one of my most memorable vacations ever. My favorite part of the trip; waking up each morning to an up front and close view of the Croatian coast line. The small towns/ villages, the mountains and the crystal clear Adriatic were simply amazing; every morning was more spectacular than the last. The city tours in the afternoons were always well organized and full of local history facts. A very big thanks to Out Adventures for organizing this truly awesome trip!! Great memories and met some really awesome guys. I can’t wait for my next Out Adventure!!
Bob M
Small fun group!
Chile: Hiking, Biking, Wining & DiningSmall fun group was ideal, right blend of activity and exploring and good mix among those.

In three words: Challenging, Rewarding, Incredible.
Nepal: Kathmandu & Everest Base CampI had an amazing experience on Out Adventures gay Nepal tour. I’m normally a “5-Star” vacation guy and this trip has shown me the error of my ways. The tours of the Kathmandu Valley were excellent and the trek was utterly incredible; being surrounded by such incredible natural beauty with a great group of travelers, being led by friendly and knowledgeable guides and having a superb tour leader made this easily the most memorable, positive, and self-affirming vacations I’ve ever embarked upon.
Brandon H
It was a beautiful country with such varied scenery.
Moroccan Souks & SandI loved the gay Morocco trip. The group was a good size, and we really got a good feel for Morocco and saw just about everything. It was a beautiful country with such varied scenery.
Brian Y
The trail was challenging, but the stunning vistas, incredible Inca ruins and diverse flora and fauna made it worthwhile.
Peru: The Inca Trail & Machu PicchuHiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu lived up to all of my expectations. The trail was challenging, but the stunning vistas, incredible Inca ruins and diverse flora and fauna made it worthwhile. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history, culture and must-see places/activities. Not a minute of our time was wasted as we visited local sights in Lima, Cusco, Wilcamayo and Ollantaytambo getting acclimated to the altitude before starting our gay hike on the Inca Trail. We dined at some of the local restaurants, tasting some of the local fare (cuy anyone?). Once we started on the trail, the hospitality of the staff is outstanding as was our trail guide, Tomas. It’s amazing to think that we we had 3 hot meals a day + happy hour.
Brian H
Excellent Trip!
South Africa & Victoria Falls In StyleExcellent gay South Africa trip with every single detail addressed perfectly. The group size was great and Robert couldn’t have been better!!

I can't say enough good things about our guide!
Peru: The Amazon & Machu PicchuGreat advice during the planning phases resulted in an EXTREMELY well planned itinerary. And I can’t say enough good things about our guide!
Ian Z
This was my second Out Adventures tour and won't be my last.
Iceland: Countryside & Reykjavik PrideWe got VIP treatment at a large local gay Reykjavík event, had special unadvertised extras along the way and got to know people we ordinarily would have just been introduced to in passing. This was my second Out Adventures tour and won’t be my last.
Scott F
Greatest time EVER!!
Croatia: Gay Dalmatia CruiseGreatest time EVER!! Love everything about the gay Croatia cruise, especially the time aboard the yacht and swimming daily in the Adriatic Sea. Heaven!!

I came back a more educated and better person thanks to the experiences on this trip.
Cuba: New Year FiestaAmazing country with a rich history. Wonderful people. I came back a more educated and better person thanks to the experiences on this trip.

This is much more than a vacation, it is an adventure.
Peru: The Amazon & Machu PicchuOut Adventures’ gay Peru tour is much more than a vacation, it is an adventure. From sea level to 11K feet. Planes, long narrow river boats, private tour busses sized just for the small group, trains, all of which are arranged for you along with a guide who grew up around Cusco and giving you an intimate insight to the history, culture, and current times. The itinerary ranges from sophisticated cities with immaculate streets and beautiful plazas, fine food, four start hotels, and a deep dive into a central market that will shock and enlighten you; to an environmentally sensitive jungle lodge and the re-establishment of tribal benefits and preservation filled with howling monkeys and squawking macaws. Absolutely the most varied tour of a country I’ve taken to date and all of it managed for you by people that love Peru, have been there, and had selected the itinerary personally. Kudos Out Adventures, the very best.
Noel C
This trip was outstanding.
Nepal: Kathmandu & Everest Base CampOut Adventures gay Nepal trip was outstanding, not only for the destination, but the service and attention to detail Out Adventures provided.
Jeff P
The people are kind, welcoming, and genuinely love Americans. Go! Now!
Cultural CubaGo! Now! We felt so much safer in Cuba than we ever imagined. For some reason, many people are concerned with travel to Cuba. False fears! The people are kind, welcoming, and genuinely love Americans. Although it is a poor country, they have so much to offer in terms of cultural, historical, and natural beauty. The country is so much bigger than we ever imagined. It doesn’t feel like an island – it feels more like a large Spanish Colonial country in South America.
Howard H
Extraordinarily well-planned and coordinated adventure
Galapagos Gay CruiseThe destination was spectacular but being able to be there with a great group of men on an extraordinarily well-planned and coordinated adventure made it even more wonderful.
Jeff K
Morocco delivered everything I hoped for.
Moroccan Souks & SandMorocco delivered everything I hoped for and so much more! Excellent service from initial inquiry all the way through to the last day.

I INSIST that you go on the next Croatia trip with Out Adventures!
Croatia: Gay Dalmatia CruiseI INSIST that you go on the next gay Croatia trip with Out Adventures! It combines the best parts of a private chartered cruise and a large cruise ship experience. Don’t be afraid!
Henry D
I don't know why I waited so long...
Chile: Hiking, Biking, Wining & DiningAmazing! First time to South America and I don’t know why I waited so long.
It was a more active trip which made it more satisfying.
Jon S
Wonderful experience.
South Africa & Victoria Falls In StyleHighly recommended. Out Adventures really delivers a fantastic gay South Africa experience for LGBT travelers.
Michael H
The guide was excellent and the destination amazing
Iceland: Countryside & Reykjavik PrideThe trip far exceeded expectations. Every day’s events were well planned yet flexible enough to accommodate for weather conditions (two excursions were switched to take advantage of this). Though clearly this is not something that can be done on all trips this demonstrates how important the customer experience is to Out Adventures. The guide was excellent and the destination amazing. Our experience was so positive we’re already planning our next trip with Out Adventures.
Steve H
The views and sights during the hike are amazing!
Peru: The Inca Trail & Machu PicchuThe all-gay hike was tough, but doable with some good cardio training before leaving. The views and sights during the hike are amazing! It’s the only way to see many Inca sites before arriving at Machu Picchu.
Gary D
Top of the list of the dozen out adventures trips I've taken!
Galapagos Gay CruiseAfter 6 years, Galápagos is still the top of the list of the dozen out adventures trips I’ve taken. The diversity of the animals is amazing, but snorkeling with Galapagos and hammerhead sharks that were 30 feet below will always remain a thrilling memory.
Brent K
They were so knowledgeable and took care of us every step of the way.
Peru: The Inca Trail & Machu PicchuI had been thinking about this trip for over 20 years, and had been saving for about 5, so making the right choice for a tour operator was very important to me. I was very glad we went with Out Adventures. The tour was small enough with enough structure and free time to feel like we were traveling with friends. The guides were just amazing. They were so knowledgeable and took care of us every step of the way. Robert and his team do an amazing job. Being able to direct dial a travel agency and speak directly to the owner is just amazing. I would recommend this tour to anyone.
Anthony N
My favorite meals were peppered with fresh herbs and Istrian truffles. Each new port city I visited had its own unique energy, and walking the narrow streets of these cities was both haunting and fascinating.
Croatia: Gay Dalmatia CruiseCroatia is a beautiful and vibrant country that has stoically overcome war and adapted quite well to a massive influx of tourists. The food was amazing. Every meal used fresh produce that was locally sourced and organic. My favorite meals were peppered with fresh herbs and Istrian truffles. Each new port city I visited had its own unique energy, and walking the narrow streets of these cities was both haunting and fascinating. I really enjoyed my free time swimming off the yacht, taking in the beauty of the Croatian coastline, and tasting the local cuisine. However, what made this gay Croatia cruise even more memorable was all of the new friendships I made along the way.

Once in a lifetime adventure
Tanzania: Kilimanjaro Gay ClimbOnce in a lifetime adventure everyone should experience, surrounded by a great group of people. Outstanding organization and communication from the Out Adventures representatives so there was nothing I had to worry about once the trip was booked.
Mark D
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Moroccan Souks & SandThis is a once in a lifetime opportunity. There is a comfort level being with other gay men for one thing. Also, this kind of trip is not for the faint of heart and body, so it tends to attract interesting people. Me and my friends took an extra three days on our own, which I enjoyed…. because the 10 days are pretty much packed with interesting things to see and do. This country is so far from our experience at home that having a good guide is invaluable. Our guide was so incredibly knowledgeable and just plain fun to be around that it made it a special experience.
Tim B & Joe D

Traveling with Gudni is like having an old friend show you around their home country.
Iceland: Countryside & Reykjavik PrideNot only does Out Adventures put together an ideal itinerary for visiting Iceland, but traveling with Gudni is like having an old friend show you around their home country with pride and a knowledge of the facts AND the people.
Devar
Out Adventures really went the extra mile to make sure everything went as planned.
Nepal: Kathmandu & Everest Base CampI cannot formulate enough words to describe how wonderful this experience was. Our guide and assistant guides were amazing. Everyone was helpful and supportive. They made you walk when you needed to, and made you rest as much as you needed. Our tours of Kathmandu and Bhaktapur were equally as good. The guides were very informative and very forthcoming with their experiences.

Evan & Lonnie
We would highly recommend this trip to others.
Peru: The Amazon & Machu PicchuOut Adventures gay Peru tour was great. We planned the trip because we wanted to go to Machu Picchu. But the itinerary planned for us included so much more of Peru, including the Amazon and Cusco, and it was a wonderful experience. We would highly recommend this trip to others.
Scott M

Great group and fantastic group leader.
Peru: The Amazon & Machu PicchuWhile there we toured the sights of Lima, saw monkeys and macaws in the Amazon jungle, visited Machu Picchu, and spent a few days exploring Cusco. We had a great group and fantastic group leader. It was nice not needing to worry about everything and we had more time to enjoy being in Peru.

Packed with fun things to do
Budapest & Slovenia: Castles, Caves & Culinary EscapadesPacked with fun things to do. Great company. Great food. Well organized.

Support during the trek surpassed my expectations...
Peru: The Inca Trail & Machu PicchuDon’t be scared off by the enormity of the trip, however, make sure you prepare yourself for the physical exertion and requirements. You will appreciate the trip better if you train your body to some extent. And the support during travel surpasses your expectations.

A great way to see a lot of Morocco in a short time.
Moroccan Souks & SandIt was a great way to see a lot of Morocco in a short time, expose ourselves to places in the country we wouldn’t have gone on our own. Our guide provided insights and perspective that we wouldn’t have had access to if we were traveling solo.

I had the time of my life on the Peru trip
Peru: The Inca Trail & Machu PicchuLet me tell you, I had the time of my life on the Peru trip and it was one of the best experiences of my life. The group was great, the porters and cooks , Darwin, Bruce, and Ali were awesome. I was a bit apprehensive traveling to the developing world, but as I quickly found out, we were in good hands and there was nothing to worry about. The people of Peru are so friendly, and the crew that was assembled to help us with the trip represented OUT and their people in an exemplary manner.

Cuba trip was a good mix of staying busy and seeing/doing a lot, but not overwhelming.
Cultural CubaWell organized; excellent tour guide; Cuba trip was a good mix of staying busy and seeing/doing a lot, but not overwhelming; great group of people and many were repeat Out Adventures clients, so hopefully other trips would be good groups as well.

Exceeded all of my expectations
Galapagos Gay CruiseOut Adventures’ gay Galápagos cruise exceeded all of my expectations. Every day is full of activities and the size of the group ensures you fully experience all that the islands have to offer. Where else can you be snorkeling with sea lions, turtles, rays and sharks then hiking along to see iguanas, boobies, and giant tortoises on the same day? I highly recommend this experience to everyone!
Steven P
Out Adventures team was so reliable.
Budapest & Slovenia: Castles, Caves & Culinary EscapadesI loved the fact I didn’t have to ‘think’, I literally just showed up each morning and Out Adventures had everything lined up and I could just take in the view, and I always knew I didn’t have to figure out a map, or try to locate a bathroom or figure out how much to tip—as Out Adventures team was so reliable.

Out Adventures' gay Peru trip should be on everyone's bucket list!
Peru: The Amazon & Machu PicchuOut Adventures’ gay Peru trip should be on everyone’s bucket list! A fantastic combination of stunning scenery, welcoming cultures, and significant history. Don’t overpack, as you will be on planes, trains, and buses. Don’t under pack, as you will need rain gear, hiking shoes, shorts for the jungle and warm clothes for the Andes. Our guide, Maritza, was incredible. The accommodations were great and the food delicious! Highly recommended!!
David D
No better way to experience Thailand
Thailand: Temples & BeachesThere is no better way to experience Thailand if you’re a member of the LGBT community looking to explore the world in-depth and in-style.
