Over a decade ago, we sought to rethink the LGBTQ+ cruise experience with private yachts and chic river ships that visit hot spots as well as unique ports of call brimming with character. By chartering smaller ships, we can dock in cozy village wharves and anchor in hidden bays unreachable by larger vessels, all while providing top-tier service and gourmet cuisine. Our intimate and personalized experience guarantees a fun-filled VIP adventure for every sailor on board!
We guarantee a one-of-a-kind, fun-filled journey with exquisite service that makes every sailor feel like a VIP.
Enjoy the unique advantage of smaller ships that make it easier to connect with fellow passengers and form lasting friendships.
From world wonders to hidden coves, our gay cruises take you to ports beyond your wildest dreams.
Each private yacht and river ship offers a unique voyage tailored to the destination.

Awesome and once in a lifetime experience. Great team and good boat. Very happy I did it.
I loved the slow easy cruise through the vineyards of France. The dining & wine pairing with our on-board chef was over the top. It was just what I needed!
Well planned out and our local guide Amr was AMAZING! A once in a lifetime experience. The rich history, beautiful architecture, and friendly people made this a trip we’ll always remember.
Loved every minute of it. Friendly people in each country, great food, relaxing, and endless fun. Made some lasting friendships with fellow travelers.
Of all the trips/tours I have done, this has been the BEST so far!
This 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.
Our vibe is casual and comfortable – resort wear by day, and something snazzy for evening dinners. Think weather-appropriate shorts or pants and a casual button-up shirt. Formal wear is never required; you’re on vacation after all! For more specific recommendations, check the Important Information section of each cruise page for suggestions on what you should pack. This information will also be sent to you prior to your departure date.
No! Many guests join solo – it’s a great way to meet new people in a safe and welcoming setting. If you’re open to being matched with a cabinmate, we are happy to do that at no extra cost. If you’d rather have a cabin to yourself, we offer a limited number of single supplements on each cruise. To check single supplement availability, take a look at the ‘dates and prices’ section on the trip page.
Yes! From exploring ancient ruins to relaxing on the beach at sunset, our itineraries blend free time with the cultural and adventurous highlights of each destination.
Private yachts, small expedition ships, boutique river ships, curated destinations, expert hosts, and a friendly community. No mega ships or circuit parties (not that there’s anything wrong with that!) – just real connection and adventure, made easier by our smaller capacities, ranging from 15 passengers in the Galápagos to 60 passengers in Greece.
Though our cruises all offer a full bar and a wine list, they are not known to be party cruises. You’ll find plenty of quiet or relaxed spaces on board, and most guests go to bed at a reasonable hour to be well-rested for the next day’s activities.
Our most popular cruises can sell out over a year in advance. We recommend booking as early as possible to ensure that your preferred cabin type is available.
Way back in 2013, our first Croatia cruise departed. It’s been an annual mainstay ever since and typically sells out at least 6-9 months in advance. Other perennially popular cruises include our Egypt: Nile River Cruise and our Galapagos Gay Cruise. We’re always on the lookout for new small ships and exciting destinations, and sometimes we offer Limited Edition cruises which we intend on only running once, or rotating on and off depending on the year.
As with all our tours and cruises, the price includes accommodations, transportation, most meals and activities, and at least one LGBTQ+ Host and local guide, sometimes more depending on the size of the ship. Our cruises range from all-inclusive to mostly-inclusive, and the inclusions are listed in detail on the individual trip pages for each cruise.
We can accommodate most dietary or medical needs, and we’ll ask for this information at the point of booking. Once we review your information, we will reach out to you if we have questions or if we are unable to accommodate your needs.
While small ship LGBTQ+ cruises may come at a higher initial cost, they typically include more value: complimentary Wi-Fi, select alcoholic beverage options, unique destinations, shore excursions, airport transfers, and personalized service thanks to a higher crew-to-guest ratio. Big ship cruises can seem budget-friendly at first, but once you add extras like drink packages, excursions, or premium dining, the final price is often significantly higher than expected. As well, it’s a good example of economies of scale and how exclusivity and enhanced customer service cost a little more.
Modern luxury ships and private yachts are often equipped with advanced stabilizers, significantly reducing motion and providing a smoother sailing experience, even in rougher waters. That said, a small ship is a small ship, and they can be more susceptible to rough waters. If you suffer from motion sickness, we recommend talking to your primary care physician about options like scopolamine patches or other anti-nausea medications.
Absolutely! The limited number of passengers fosters a strong sense of camaraderie and community. You’ll likely encounter the same people in different settings (dining, excursions, lounges), making it easier to build lasting connections and friendships.
