There is simply no end to the things to see and do around the world. One option is to take part in gay vacations, 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.
If you want an urban getaway instead, you will find much to see and do in the lively city of So Paulo. The city has a legendary LGBT club scene, which is perhaps the largest in the world. There is also unforgettable Brazilian dining, historic museums and top tier shopping at some of the best upscale stores around.
If you prefer European travel, gay tours 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 vacations, 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.
Of course, there is much more to Europe than the vibrant country of Spain. France is another hot destination, where visitors can take D-Day tours through Normandy, visit the castles of Loire, go wine tasting in Burgundy or spend their entire vacation attempting to see and do all that Paris has to offer. And then, of course, there is London, which is a perfectly decadent destination for gay vacations.
While visiting London and taking in the sights, you will not want to miss Buckingham Palace and Big Ben, and you should also consider riding the London Eye, taking a cruise down the Thames and touring St. Paul's cathedral. After a long day of taking in the sights, there are fabulous stage shows and a rather lively nightlife, including what are considered some of the best LGBT clubs in the UK, including Heaven, The Shadow Lounge, Ruby Tuesdays, Fire and more.
If your ideal gay travel destination involves ancient ruins, sun-soaked beaches and indulging in local food and drink, the Mediterranean might be your ideal destination for solo trips or gay tours. In between visiting the vast array of historic sites, visitors can haggle with sellers in Athens markets or enjoy the exceptional beauty of Crete. Of course, if open-air markets are not exactly your cup of tea, Athens also has a variety of upscale boutiques and shops.
Egypt is a land of hypnotic rolling dunes as far as the eye can see, blazing pure blue skies and history nearly as old as modern civilization itself. This unique gay travel destination promises plenty of adventure and memorable experiences. Standing on the Giza Plateau, beholding the majesty of the Sphinx and the Great Pyramids of Giza, you are sure to enjoy seeing sights that hearken back to some of man's earliest days.
There are exciting destinations for gay travel 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.
