Volcanoes, dense rainforests, thermal hot springs, turquoise-coloured rivers, and dream beaches – the comparatively small country of Costa Rica offers a variety of landscapes that are second to none (video ). This rich diversity is also evident in the country’s wildlife. Many of the most exotic animals in the world have chosen the jungles of Costa Rica as their home. The country is a global pioneer in terms of nature and climate protection , with the largest percentage of protected areas, and ambitious goals such as becoming the first CO2-neutral country in the world. Costa Ricans are among the happiest people in the world . But watch out – this zest for life is contagious! Costa Rica became the first country in Central America to legalise same-sex marriage in May 2020. However, as a Catholic country, it remains conservative , and Costa Ricans keep their sexuality private and prefer not to discuss it in public. Due to the largely tolerant attitude of its society, Costa Rica has become the most popular gay holiday destination in Central America. In contrast to the neighbouring countries, there is a gay community in Costa Rica , which is mainly concentrated in the capital San José. Hotels During your holiday, you’ll be staying at rustic tropical lodges such as the Laguna Lodge and Sarapiquí’s Rainforest Lodge . You’ll spend the last night of your trip at the prestigious Hotel Parador with amazing view of the ocean and the rainforest.

Baltic Countries Gay trip | Culture & Experience 29 May - 6 Jun. 2025 6 - 16 g ays | Spots available Experience the magic of three countries, three languages, and three cultures – all on one unforgettable gay group tour! The Baltic countries offer an enticing mix of historical architecture and magnificent natural landscapes. Discover the culturally rich cities of Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn, and breathe in the salty air of the Baltic Sea on the idyllic Curonian Spit. Why not stay for Baltic Pride in Vilnius while you’re here? Explore the capital cities of Tallinn, Riga, and Vilnius Visit Rundāle Palace and discover the Amber Coast Dive into natural beauty on the Curonian Spit Optional: Celebrate Baltic Pride in Vilnius Visual inspiration Riga – the pearl of the Baltic countries Stroll through the Old Town of Tallinn Try the many delicious types of beer Riga – the pearl of the Baltic countries 1/9 Details Day 1, Thu, 29.05.2025: Welcome to Estonia! After your individual arrival in Tallinn (flights not included in this tour), you’ll finally meet the other guys over a welcome dinner at a local restaurant . The tasty cuisine of the Baltic countries is sure to be one of the many things that you’ll love about your unforgettable gay holiday . Day 2, Fri, 30.05.2025: Medieval magic in Tallinn Your first stop on a city tour of Tallinn is the upper town where on Cathedral Hill , you’ll marvel at the ancient castle and countless opulent palaces where the Baltic nobility once resided. In the lower town, you’ll stroll through the romantic narrow alleyways of the Old Town , the quarter where the craftsmen and merchants once lived. A city wall with fortified towers surrounds almost the entire historic city centre. One of the mightiest towers in this constellation is lovingly referred to as “Fat Margaret ”; in contrast, the 45-metre high “Long Hermann ”, the city’s most prominent landmark, is a slender supermodel. For centuries, the Town Hall Pharmacy – presumably the oldest pharmacy in Europe – manufactured Klarett, a spiced wine that was used to treat just about everything. The afternoon is yours to explore Tallinn on your own . Why the Baltic countries ? This gay tour is jam-packed with cultural highlights : you’ll visit all three Baltic capitals and dive into the history, languages, and diverse cultures of this incredible corner of Europe. The Baltic region offers some of the most beautiful examples of Medieval, Hanseatic and Baroque architecture in all of Europe. Just have a look at Riga, the capital of Latvia (video) and Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, with its lovingly restored Old Town. In addition to the natural beauty and culture of the Baltic region, you’ll also have a glimpse of its spirituality – in Lithuania, you’ll visit mystical pilgrimage sites such as the Hill of Crosses and the Gate of Dawn. Overall, the Baltic region is becoming more and more open to the LGBTQ+ community : Estonia legalised same-sex partnerships in 2014, and Latvian society is increasingly pushing for the equal rights of all its citizens – Riga even has a small gay community ! Homosexuality is tolerated in Lithuania but owing to the strong Catholic influence in the country, it’s still a taboo subject for many. For this reason, you should be cautious when it comes to public displays of affection. Day 3, Sat, 31.05.2025: Off to Latvia! At the seaside resort of Pärnu , the white sandy beaches will make you feel like you’re in the Caribbean – all that’s missing is a tropical cocktail! Afterwards, the bus will take you across the border to the magnificent country of Latvia . Although the Baltic countries are geographically close to one another, their languages and cultures are astonishingly different . What do the countries have in common and what distinguishes them from one another? After your amazing gay holiday, you’ll be able to answer this question. You’ll have a delicious lunch at a restaurant before continuing your journey to Riga – the pearl of the Baltic countries . Day 4, Sat, 01.06.2025: Sensory overload in Riga On a morning walk through the enchanting city of Riga , you’ll stop in the New Town , which fascinates visitors from all over the world with a unique collection of historical buildings in the finest Art Nouveau style. In the Old Town, the façades of the merchant, guild and town houses shine almost like new, which will make you feel like this gay tour of the Baltic countries has taken you back in time. Riga Castle, the Swedish Tower, St. Peter’s Church and the Swedish Gate are some of the other stops on this jam-packed tour. In the impressive cathedral , we hear fascinating stories about the history of one of the oldest churches in the Baltic region . At Town Hall Square , you’ll gaze at the stunning House of the Blackheads . In the afternoon, you have time to stroll through the city on our own , and in the evening, you’re in for a real treat – Latvian nouvelle cuisine at a fine restaurant. Day 5, Mon, 02.06.2025: By order of the Czar – Rundāle Around 50 kilometres south of Riga lies Rundāle , the magnificent baroque palace built by master architect Rastrelli, which we will explore in detail. The regal palace was built in two periods, from 1736 until 1740 and from 1764 until 1768, and has been on the list of state-protected monuments since 1924. The palace’s baroque gardens are particularly stunning. After this informative tour, it’s goodbye, Latvia – hello, Lithuania . Our first stop in the final country of your gay holiday is the Hill of Crosses in Siauliai, a mystical pilgrimage site. No one knows whether there are 10,000 or 100,000 crosses at this national shrine – but you’ll be impressed nonetheless. Day 6, Tue, 03.06.2025: Treasure hunt on the Curonian Spit This breathtaking landscape of the Curonian Spit has attracted many artists to Nida. At the Amber Museum , an expert shares with you fascinating facts about amber – the “gold of the Baltic Sea ”. In the adjoining amber workshop, you’ll learn to cut, file and polish amber by hand using traditional techniques. A beautiful piece of Baltic amber is the perfect souvenir for friends and family back home! As a reward for your hard work, you’ll have some delicious fish for lunch – fresh from the Baltic Sea, of course. Make sure to take in the idyllic atmosphere here – the lagoon sparkles through the sparse forest and the scent of pine mingles with the Baltic Sea air. After lunch, enjoy the view from the tall dune and take a leisurely hike (2 hours, easy) down into the “Valley of Silence ”. Tonight, you’ll be staying in Nida. Day 7, Wed, 04.06.2025: Kaunas and the Neman River No gay holiday would be complete without a dose of culture! Today, you travel to Kaunas , the second largest city in Lithuania . Located at the convergence of the Neman and Neris rivers , the city was awarded the title European Capital of Culture in 2022. After exploring the Old Town with its historic Town Hall Square on a walking tour, you’ll understand why – Kaunas has countless stunning examples of Baltic architecture . Afterwards, the journey continues to Vilnius. Day 8, Thu, 05.06.2025: Vilnius – Jewel of the Baroque Welcome to Vilnius , which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1994! Your first stop is the Church of St. Peter and Paul with its exquisite stucco work, typical of the Vilnian Baroque style . From Subaciaus Hill , you have a fantastic view of the city, and at the Gate of Dawn you’ll walk alongside pilgrims to the miraculous icon of Our Lady of the Gate of Dawn . On our tour of the Old Town , you’ll see the cathedral and the venerable Vilnius University founded in 1579 , among other sights. In conversation with a conservator in the Franciscan Church , we learn just how much Vilnius invests in the preservation of its historic monuments .

Why Bali & Lombok ? If you’re a beach lover , Bali is the place for you. The island has some of the most breathtaking shorelines in the entire world as well as amazing coral reefs . The black sand beaches typical of volcanic islands are definitely a highlight. There’s never a bad time to visit Bali or Lombok : the weather is warm all year around with average daily temperatures of 28°C (82°F) . With thousands of ancient temples, thick tropical jungles, enchanting rice terraces, smoking volcanos, and a culture of mysterious rituals and dance , Bali is guaranteed to awaken the spirit of adventure in you. Nature lovers will feel right at home in Lombok which is much more pristine and untouched than its “sister island” Bali. Because there are fewer tourists and less traffic, the island is somewhat more affordable , especially when it comes to eating out. As a predominantly Muslim country , Indonesia is very traditional and conservative , especially when it comes to the LGBTQIA+ community. That being said, Bali is predominantly Hindu and has always been more liberal and accepting of the queer community . Nevertheless, sex remains a taboo topic in all of Indonesia – regardless of your sexual orientation. So it’s best not to draw attention to yourself with public displays of affection. Hotels During your holiday, you’ll be staying at a variety of hotels and island resorts such as the 101 Bali Oasis, the Rama Phala Resort & Spa and The Lovina . You’ll even spend one unforgettable night at Toteme Glamping Kintamani .
