A gay travel agency built around community

Pride Travelers is a dedicated gay travel agency based in Orlando, Florida, specializing in gay cruise vacations, hosted gay group cruises, and curated LGBTQ+ resort experiences worldwide. We work with major cruise lines, full-ship charters, and inclusive destinations to design travel that feels exciting, welcoming, and intentionally community-driven.

Whether you’re joining one of our hosted group cruises, sailing on a large-scale LGBTQ+ cruise charter like Atlantis or VACAYA, or planning a romantic LGBTQ+ resort getaway, our team handles every detail with clarity and confidence. Travel should feel effortless and empowering, not uncertain.

As LGBTQ+ travel advisors, we combine industry expertise with lived understanding. We know which cruise lines create real connection, which resorts truly embrace LGBTQ+ guests, and how to build group experiences that bring people together. When you travel with Pride Travelers, you’re not just booking a vacation. You’re stepping into a community built around shared experiences at sea and beyond.

How we plan gay cruise vacations

Gay cruise vacations are at the core of Pride Travelers. From large-scale gay cruise charters like Atlantis and VACAYA to our own hosted gay group cruises on mainstream ships, we help LGBTQ+ travelers navigate every type of cruise experience. Whether you want a full-ship gay sailing, a hosted group onboard a major cruise line, or a luxury ocean or river cruise with an inclusive atmosphere (compare Viking vs. AmaWaterways), we guide you to the right itinerary, cabin, and onboard experience. New to it? Read what a gay cruise is or how much a gay cruise costs.

How we choose LGBTQ+ resorts

Not all resorts are created equal. Think gay men’s resorts like Island House in Key West and Pineapple Point in Fort Lauderdale, Almar on the beach in Puerto Vallarta, or Coquí del Mar in San Juan. We specialize in LGBTQ+-friendly resorts and inclusive destinations that genuinely welcome and celebrate LGBTQ+ travelers. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a honeymoon, or a relaxing adults-only escape, we match you with resorts that fit your travel style while ensuring comfort, safety, and elevated service.

How we run gay group travel

LGBTQ+ group travel is about more than sharing a destination. It’s about shared experience. We design and host curated LGBTQ+ group trips that bring like-minded travelers together, at sea or on land: milestone birthdays, destination weddings, friend trips, and hosted events. Every guest gets their own booking and payment portal, so the organizer never has to chase anyone for money. See our gay group trip cost guide for real budgets.

absolutely not the case. Not only was the cost the exact same, it came with additional benefits. Best of all - I still had all the control over my booking. The only difference was how I made payments. After such an awesome experience earlier this year there was no doubt who I'd be using for a last minute Mother's Day family cruise. TJ was able to not only get us neighboring rooms but also saved my dad an additional $400 he would've otherwise not been eligible for had we booked ourselves. It turned what could've been a hectic process into a seamless transaction. We had the time of our lives and appreciated the extras we received from Pride Travelers. We haven't picked out our next cruise but when we do there is no doubt in our mind - we'll be booking with TJ and Roxas. Thank you so much for helping create a lasting family memory!”

Why a gay travel agency

Why travel with Pride Travelers?

Anyone can book a cabin. We plan the trip around who you are, then stay in your corner until you’re home. Read about the advantages of a gay travel agent and our Pride Commitment.

Talk to an advisor
  1. 01

    Real LGBTQ+ experience, not “friendly” marketing

    We don’t just book trips that say they’re inclusive. We understand the difference between a cruise or resort that tolerates LGBTQ+ travelers and one that genuinely celebrates them, and we know which experiences feel authentic, safe, and community-driven.

  2. 02

    Hosted gay cruises that build community

    Anyone can book a cabin. We design hosted gay group cruises with curated events, group dinners, meetups, and shared experiences that bring travelers together. When you sail with Pride Travelers, you’re not traveling alone. You’re joining a community at sea.

  3. 03

    Planning that protects your investment

    We help you choose the right itinerary, cabin category, cruise line, and resort based on your personality and goals, then guide you through dining reservations, excursions, protection options, and group access so nothing feels uncertain.

  4. 04

    A real person in your corner

    One itinerary for flights, hotels, and transfers, and one advisor to call before, during, and after your trip.

Gay travel agency FAQ

Quick answers before you plan.

What is a gay travel agency?+
A gay travel agency plans and books travel for LGBTQ+ travelers. At Pride Travelers that means gay cruises, hosted gay group cruises, LGBTQ+ resorts, honeymoons, and group trips, vetted for real inclusion.
Can you book flights and hotels too?+
Yes. We book flights, pre- and post-cruise hotels, transfers, and travel insurance, and bundle everything into one itinerary.
What is Pride at Sea?+
Pride at Sea is Pride Travelers’ own series of hosted gay group cruises, not a separate cruise company: an LGBTQ+ group with its own mixers, dinners, and shore days on a mainstream ship. Next up is Gayribbean 2027, October 24–30, 2027, from Fort Lauderdale.
What is the difference between Atlantis, VACAYA, and a hosted gay cruise?+
Atlantis and VACAYA charter the whole ship. A hosted cruise like Pride at Sea puts an LGBTQ+ group on a regular sailing, usually at a lower price. Compare them in Atlantis vs. VACAYA.
Do you plan trips for solo travelers?+
Yes. Our hosted Pride at Sea cruises are a great fit if you’re traveling alone, because the community is built in from the first mixer. See our gay solo travel guide and solo gay cruise guide.
Is it safe to travel as an LGBTQ+ traveler?+
Safety varies by destination, not just by country. We vet destinations and properties for real inclusion and share local customs and safety notes before you go. Start with our LGBTQ+ travel safety guide.
Where is Pride Travelers based?+
We’re a Florida travel agency based in Orlando, about an hour from Port Canaveral and a short drive from the Fort Lauderdale and Miami cruise ports. We serve travelers across all of North America by phone, text, and email.
Do you plan honeymoons, all-inclusive resort stays, and family vacations too?+
Yes. Alongside gay cruises, we plan honeymoons, destination weddings, all-inclusive resort vacations, luxury trips, and family cruises for travelers of every background, with LGBTQ+ expertise built in.
