There is no limit to the things to see and do around the world. One option is to take part in gay tours, which allows you to leave the planning to the professional and relax on your vacation, while enjoying once-in-a-lifetime experiences. And, the best part is, depending on which destination you wish to visit, LGBT tours are available throughout the year.
Brazil is one excellent example of an ideal gay travel destination. Rio de Janeiro is home to world-famous beaches, such as Copacabana, as well as the amazing views from Corcovado, which holds the historic Christ the Redeemer at the summit. Exceptional shopping and a lively nightlife are also waiting for those who are looking for a truly memorable time in this beautiful paradise.
Sao Paulo is another popular choice for an urban vacation and is home to what is rumored to perhaps be the largest LGBT club scene in the world. In this lively city, you will also find upscale shopping, plenty of museums and some amazing Brazilian foods.
If you prefer European travel, gay vacations in the diverse country of Spain are an ideal option. Not only is Barcelona broadly considered the most open and welcoming city in Europe, it is also home to the famous buildings designed by Antoni Gaudi. While in Spain, other spots to consider are the Alhambra in Granada and the awe-inspiring Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. For outdoor adventure, the Sierra Nevadas are a great spot for skiing during gay travel, particularly near Torremolinos and Malaga.
For those who enjoy experiencing local life, attending a village fiesta is a great experience. These parties are typically religious in nature; however, they are very fun and will often go well into the night. Thankfully, Spain is also full of lovely sidewalk cafs, which are the perfect place to relax and people watch, while recovering from a long day of sightseeing - or a long night.
Beyond the formidable and beautiful Pyrenes Mountains lies the rest of Europe, where many more adventures await. D-day minibus tours through Normandy are available Thursday and Saturday, and exquisite full day tours to Loire castles from your hotel in Paris are also to be had. Last, but certainly not least, you can take delightfully decadent gay vacations in London.
Speaking of London, whilst soaking up the sights of merry England, you can see Big Ben, take a cruise on the Thames, visit Buckingham palace, ride the London Eye, catch a show or take a tour of St. Paul's cathedral. If, after all the sight-seeing, you yearn to cut loose, London is home to some of the best LGBT nightclubs in the UK, including Fire, Heaven, Ruby Tuesdays, The Shadow Lounge and more.
If you dream of sun-soaked beaches, ancient ruins and delicious local dishes, the Mediterranean is an ideal location for gay travel or for taking part in organized gay tours. Enjoying the natural beauty of Crete or spending an afternoon haggling in the markets of Athens is a great way to spend time between visits to historic sites. If shopping that is a bit more glamorous is more your style, Athens is also home to plenty of upscale shops and boutiques.
There is also Egypt, which is a land of brilliant blue skies, rolling dunes and rich, vibrant history. Egypt is a truly unique gay travel destination, which promises unending adventures and life-changing experiences. Standing before the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx on the Giza Plateau, you are sure to catch your breath as you consider these icons that date from civilization's earliest days.
There are exciting destinations for gay vacations around the world. Whether you visit the farthest reaches of the globe on gay tours, or prefer individual travel to popular LGBT travel hot spots, you are sure to make memories that will last a lifetime, while having the time of your life.
