Gay Ratings

Passengers sometimes ask us how "gay" a trip will be. In order to prepare you for the best adventure of your life we have created a basic rating system to inform you of the type of activities to expect, but more importantly suggestions about how to prepare for visiting a new and exciting culture. These are basic guidelines and we highly recommend checking the important notes section of your trip notes for specific country information such as gay rights.
