OUT AND ABOUT TRAVEL – GAY TRAVEL AGENCY – GAY TRAVEL AGENT – GAY & LESBIAN TRAVEL.


outandaboutlogo1
I remember when I started Out & About Travel back in 1999. I was 23 years old and had limited experience. What I DID have was an absolute passion and drive to let the gay & lesbian community know about all the gay travel options available to them.

Out & About Travel was one of the first online gay travel agencies. Our web site was nothing fancy to look at but it was chock full of gay & lesbian travel information. It was a true labor of hard work and love.
Little by little our little agency started to grow in popularity. Before too long we had clients from around the word!
Fast forward to 2013 and we are know as “pioneers of the gay & lesbian travel industry.” 
Has it been easy? NO! But it sure has been worth it! :)
The competition continues to grow by, what I like to call, “the big guys” (Orbitz, Expedia, Travelocity), and quite honestly, we could NEVER compete against their advertising dollars, so yes, we have gotten lost in the shuffle a bit, but are proudly still “going strong” and more eager than ever to provide memorable travel experiences for the LGBT community!

  • Our sister site – GAY TRAVEL INFORMATION, is a leading source of information for the gay & lesbian community when looking for TRULY gay friendly businesses to support. We offer hotel, restaurant, business, event and product reviews. We only give our “stamp of approval” to the businesses that are genuine and provide a great product. It is a POSITIVE blog that only focuses on the GOOD, as we only highlight what we believe in and support! :)

  • Our other new site, WE ARE GAY FRIENDLY, is a directory listing LGBT friendly businesses throughout the world. It is under construction and should be in full function mode by the end of 2013.
