If there were an option for 10 stars, I would use it. This vacation was absolute perfection. We just returned from Peru with Brand g. It was by far the best tour we have ever taken. Our host, James Mayo and his husband Jeremy were beyond hosts. We made friends that will last a lifetime… The meals were some of the best we’ve ever experienced. All the stops and tours were fantastic. Machu Picchu was pure magic. I cannot recommend them highly enough. We are already planning our next trip with Brand g Vacations.

Brand G is a fantastic tour company that routinely exceeds expectations on every front. Each interaction is a pleasure. From the Duro River in Portugal to the South of France, the jungles of the Amazon to the Coasts of the Adriatic each Brand G experience has done, for me, what good travel does. I leave a bit smarter, a bit more connected to the world’s people and places, and enriched with a whole lot of new friends. Thanks Brand G for making getting to the world’s remarkable places so relaxed and so truly memorable.

I have had the pleasure of joining Brand g on four cruises and have back-to-back cruises on the Rhine and Danube planned for this summer. Everything about these trips has been professional and first rate, and I’ve yet to have a bad experience. I can’t recommend Brand g highly enough.

The Prague / Danube River Cruise 2018 was my first trip with Brand G. They made it so easy every step of the way — from the initial contact, to adding extra nights before/after the tour, to airport pick ups, and everything in between. The MS Amadeus Silver II is a beautiful ship with a friendly and helpful crew. The on-board meals were delicious. The rooms were spacious. The on-board entertainment was fantastic. Jeff and Brian were incredibly attentive and jumped thru hoops to ensure that every passenger had an amazing experience. I will not hesitate to book another trip with Brand G.

I have been on three Brand g trips, and they have all been fantastic, each in its own way.
It started with Galapagos and Ecuador; followed by Greek Islands cruise, from Istanbul to Athens; and then Danube River cruise, starting in Prague and ending in Budapest. I can’t say enough about Jeff Gundvaldson and Brian Van Wey, the outstanding leaders of Brand g. They are incredibly attentive to detail, both before and during the trips. And I’m taking another trip with them in September!

We absolutely love Brand g! Everything is taken care of, from pick up at the airport to delivery back after your trip. You just need to do your own air travel, and they handled everything else! Also met a bunch of wonderful people, and can’t wait to meet more. Glad we are booked for 2018 & 2019! Can’t wait!

What’s so Great About the Galapagos?
Sure, you’ve heard about this archipelago of volcanic islands that are part of the South American country of Ecuador (even though they’re nearly 600 miles off its coastline). But what is it that makes the Galapagos such a bucket-list destination? They’re home to an extraordinary number of wildlife species. From...
The Latest Trends in LGBT+ Travel
Travel is always evolving. Hotels are creating wellness resorts and hipster brands. Airlines are putting showers in first class. (I’m personally waiting for the first air spa.) And the same thing goes for LGBT+ travel – which began with a few full-ship cruise charters in the 80’s and has expanded...
Travel Insurance – Money Suck or Necessary Evil?
Travel insurance feels like adding insult to injury – travel is expensive enough without adding on an extra 5% or so for something you’ll likely never use. Many people gamble that they’ll be fine, that nothing will happen, that nothing has ever happened to them on an international trip. And...
How to Navigate Developing Countries as an LGBT+ Traveler
Europe and the Caribbean have long been popular destinations for gay cruises and land tours – with good reason – but eventually travelers yearn for new and more exotic experiences. Fortunately, tour operators like Brand g offer vacations to some of the most #lifechanging destinations on earth. These countries (many...
Why Does Buying a Business Class Seat Now Require Selling a Kidney?
Inflation has been with us for the past couple of years, which has affected everything from potato chips to Broadway show tickets (from these examples, you can see where my priorities lie). But it’s had a particularly onerous effect on business class air pricing, which seems to have increased far...
Peering Into Jeremy’s Porthole: An Interview With New Brand g Staff Member Jeremy
Some of you have already had the pleasure of traveling with Jeremy Brooks, Brand g’s newest reservations agent and trip host (and his fabulous husband, Randy). He’s incredibly sweet, adorable, and a wonderful addition to the Brand g family. He was hesitant to do this interview because he knew I...
What’s the Difference Between Big-Ship Gay Cruise Companies and Brand g?
Big LGBT+ ocean cruises can be a blast – there are tons of hot people to get to know biblically, big, all-night dance parties, and an endless array of activities onboard. But as we age, those cruises can begin to hold less allure. Maybe you’ve outgrown the “notches in the...
Why are Destinations Like the Galapagos, Antarctica and Gorilla Trekking So Expensive?
Who hasn’t dreamed of bucket list trips like the Galapagos, Antarctica, or gorilla trekking in Rwanda? Who doesn’t want to get a selfie with the world’s most majestic beasts or natural wonders that they can tuck under their pillow or use to annoy people they hate? Unfortunately, trips like these...
Tips for Seeing Morocco on a Cruise
Morocco is a country that had always been on my bucket list, ever since I saw Patsy and Edina go there in an Absolutely Fabulous episode back in the 90’s. While I didn’t have a particular desire to sell my daughter into white slavery or smoke hash, it did look...
What are the Differences Between Brand g’s Cruise Vacations and Land Tour Trips (Besides the Obvious)?
One is on water, one is on land. And…scene. Kidding. There are a ton of differences between our river cruise vacations and our land tours, and they produce totally unique experiences. Let’s break it down. Size Our European cruise vacations (which include both river and ocean cruises) range from about...
Can’t Miss Sights in Andalucia (Southern Spain)
As drag goddess Coco Peru introduces her spouse: “Meet my husband, Rafael. He’s from Spain.” There’s a good reason for that. This country is chock full of men – and women – so beautiful you want to slap them. And this eye candy is certainly a bonus when visiting this...
A Personal Review of the Atlas Luxury Yacht Experience
Like on the Bravo TV series Below Deck, I’ve fantasized many times about being the rich a-hole who charters a superyacht. But given that I’m neither an a-hole (my husband may differ on this point) nor rich (no one differs on this point), it didn’t seem to be in the...
