Vietnam & Cambodia: Mekong Gay River Cruise

February 17 – March 1, 2027

This isn’t your average river cruise; this is a sassy soirée through sizzling Southeast Asia. The Mekong River has long been the lifeblood of the cultures surrounding it, and on this cruise, we’ll commandeer our own 50-passenger river vessel for a weeklong voyage that takes us from Cambodia to Vietnam.

We begin as landlubbers in Siem Reap, where we’ll spend 3 days basking in the ancient history of Angkor Wat and partaking in the city’s scintillating nightlife.

On day 4, all aboard the RV Mekong Pandaw! This boutique ship, while relatively new, is timeless in design. And while the abundant amenities, gourmet cuisine, and nightly entertainment are certainly cause for excitement, the real star here is the itinerary. Angkor Ban, Silk Island, and Oudong – Cambodia’s ancient capital – are a few of the hidden gems we’ll hit. There’s even an overnight stay in the cultural epicenter of the nation, Phnom Penh!

Crossing the border into Vietnam, we’ll explore the canal system of Tan Chau, visit a Taoist temple to have our fortunes read by monks, and take a tuk-tuk ride on Con Phuoc Island.

Upon arrival in Ho Chi Minh City, we’ll marvel at the chaotic tapestry of everyday life. With the city buzzing around us, we’ll spend the final 2 days of our adventure diving into bustling markets, exploring famous museums, and uncovering the history of a place once called Saigon.

Vietnam: Hanoi & Ha Long Bay Gay Cruise

March 1 – 5, 2027

Step aboard the fabuluxe Au Co, a ship ideally suited for weaving between the towering, otherworldly limestone monoliths Ha Long Bay is famous for. Though we join a larger cruise for this adventure, we’ll enjoy exclusive Out Adventures meals and activities.

A surreal sight at first glance, Ha Long Bay could easily be the backdrop for a sci-fi movie set on a distant planet. As we slowly drift through the calm waters, dwarfed by menhir-like crags, we’ll have the option to lounge on the sun deck, book time in the hot tub, or hop off to explore the many enormous caves contained within the limestone behemoths. To put it succinctly, this place rocks.

On board, we’ll find amenities galore. Book some time in a massage suite, order a salubrious cocktail, or enjoy carefree whimsy exploring every cozy corner of this handsome vessel.

Upon arrival in Hanoi, we’ll wave goodbye to our lovely crew, and hello to the picturesque French Colonial architecture of our hotel. After getting settled, we’ll have one final day to explore the fusion of old-world charm and contemporary vibes of this wonderful city.

Egypt: Nile River Cruise & Cairo

March 5 – 14, 2027
November 5 – 14, 2027

As one of the only gay cruises to include a pre-cruise visit to the last surviving Wonder of the Ancient World, the Great Pyramids of Giza, this journey meanders at a leisurely pace. Relax in style as every bend in the Nile reveals a new facet of Egypt’s stunning allure. Welcome aboard the Mövenpick MS Hamees.

Beginning in Cairo, we’ll hit the world-famous pyramids, grab a selfie with the Sphinx, take an exciting camel ride, and then drop by the tomb of (perhaps) the first recorded same-sex couple, Kgnumhotep & NiankhKhnum. After a quick flight to Luxor, we’ll make our way down the Nile, Cleopatra-style!

Spend the next few days exploring temples dedicated to Egyptian gods and pharaohs while savouring Egyptian specialties prepared by private chefs. We’ll even have a private Egyptologist to impart their knowledge of this desert-nation’s fascinating history and impact on the world. Upon arrival in Aswan, we’ll fly back to Cairo for two more days in Egypt’s legendary capital.

Galapagos Gay Cruise

May 10 – 19, 2027
November 12 – 21, 2027

Sporting remarkable biodiversity, pristine waters, and wildlife unfazed by human presence, the Galapágos archipelago features evolution in action against a backdrop of volcanic calderas and secluded beaches. As we island hop on our expedition ship, we’ll snorkel with penguins, tan beside tortoises, and side-eye some sea lions. For those interested in a safari-style cruise, this one’s for you!

Beginning in the capital of Ecuador, Quito, we’ll jet westward to San Cristobel island. There, our yacht, the Natural Paradise, awaits. We’ll spend the next 7 days cozying up to untouched islands, hiking lava fields, and spotting rare species found only in this remote place. For those seeking a more relaxed pace, the bar and hot tub provide a welcome respite from the wild blue yonder.

On the tail end, we’ll say adios to our ship and hop back to Guayaquil on the mainland for a scrumptious farewell dinner.

Croatia Gay Dalmatia Cruise

July 9 – 17, 2027

Our most popular gay cruise returns! History and modern charm converge on the Adriatic coastline against a backdrop of stunning cliffs, ancient cities, and secluded coves. Sashay down the gangway into small ports unreachable by larger ships. In short, live the life of the rich and gaymous.

Our luxury yacht, The Rhapsody, is a sight to behold. This beautiful beast tops out at 10 knots, chauffeuring us from island to island and slaying the waves in between. She’ll pick us up in Split, then we’re off to explore super-cute islands like Hvar and Korčula before the grand finale: Dubrovnik!

Along the way we’ll wallow in the amenities on board, take daily dips in the shimmering Adriatic, and savour exquisite cuisine courtesy of our private chefs.

Iceland: Gay Cruise & Expedition

July 25 – August 5, 2027

Epic, mystical, and downright enchanting, Iceland is nature’s diva moment. We’ll begin and end our trip in colorful Reykjavik, famous for its rainbow street, Kiki queer bar, and welcoming culture.

On day 2, board the stylish Ultramarine for a gay cruise circling the whole island – that’s right! For our all-in-one voyage, we’ll be a large LGBTQ+ group on a ship of about 200 passengers. Although we won’t have the whole ship to ourselves, we will have special meals and excursions just for our group!

As we cruise along, we’ll discover booming waterfalls, cute coastal towns, and towering glacier-sliced fjords from the Westfjords to Northern Iceland. Zodiacs will be deployed for remote shore landings, expert naturalists will be with us the entire way, and optional activities like sea kayaking and a Tundra-To-Table culinary experience are available to add on.

We’ll hop across the Arctic Circle, ogle puffin cliffs, and revel in some of the world’s most dramatic landscapes with a boatload of new besties. Don’t miss the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and nearby Diamond Beach (both pictured below).

As we circle the Eastern and Southern coasts, we’ll be privy to hard-to-reach spots that tourists almost never get to see. On the tail end, we’ll disembark back in Reykjavik right in the middle of their annual Pride festivities. Impeccable timing!

Antarctica Gay Expedition

December 8 – 19, 2027

Celebrate the spirit of exploration with a safari cruise to the world’s most remote continent! This will be our third trip to Antarctica aboard the cutting edge Ultramarine.

Begin in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where we’ll board a charter flight to Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. Once aboard our ship, we’ll settle in for two days crossing the Drake Passage.

Once we cross the Antarctic Convergence, things get very real – hello, Antarctica! Then it’s time to hop into zodiacs and zip around bays, channels, and landing sites like pros.

We’ll swing by penguin hangouts, keep our eyes peeled for humpback and minke whales, and go seal-spotting for the southern superstars of the ice.

Adventure, camaraderie, and the raw beauty of nature converge to make this cruise a once-in-a-lifetime odyssey.
