Newsletter 258: LGBTQ Morocco Trips, 2025 Gay Group Trips + Gay Guide to Buenos Aires & More

Unveiling an LGBTQ+ Morocco with Inclusive Morocco

Morocco is a place where ancient African traditions meet a modern, evolving world; however, it’s not exactly known for being LGBTQ+-friendly. Yet, within this land of deserts and medinas, there exists a thriving LGBTQ+ community waiting to be discovered. Recognized by Condé Nast Traveler, Inclusive Morocco curates tailor-made trips that dive deep into Morocco’s heart, celebrating its diversity. From April 5–16, 2025, they’re gathering a small group for their Grand Morocco LGBTQ+ Tour, offering the chance to connect with the authentic culture of Morocco. Expect sunset camel rides, explorations through bustling medinas, and stays in mosaic-filled luxury hotels, alongside gay history tours, a lunch on a local farm, and other opportunities to get to know the people of Morocco. You can hear us talk more about Inclusive Morocco with Bilal, one of its co-founders, on our podcast, Podcast Queer Travel Chat.

Travel Pros Know Foreign Currency Is a Must in Their Wallet

You've booked your international flight and favorited the must-eat restaurants. You can almost taste the food now. So, what's next on your travel checklist?

Many U.S. travelers only realize the importance of carrying foreign currency once it's too late. Bringing foreign cash, and knowing how much to bring, is as important as making sure your credit card providers know you are traveling internationally.

Travel pros bring currency so they can:

• pay like a local, never missing a deal or experience,

• securely travel with an important backup payment method,

• and have cash in hand for the most common payment type for small transactions.

Museums, cafes, street vendors, vintage shops, taxis, and attractions can be cash only or you may need a backup payment in emergencies. Don't miss out or look foolish when it comes time to pay or tip. Pro travel hack: don't forget merchants are more willing to haggle with cash.

Who doesn’t like to brag about the deal they got?

International travel is full of anticipation and new experiences. Ease your payment worries by ensuring you have a secure backup payment and are ready to buy how you want, when you want.

Order now to get currency delivered straight to your door and you'll be traveling like a pro with cash in hand.

Gay Tours in Spain, France, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium and the Caribbean in 2025

Since 2018, we’ve been hosting our own gay sailing trips each summer. Our first trip took place in Croatia, and the following year, we sailed through the Greek Islands. Since then, we’ve hosted hundreds of guests on unforgettable summer adventures. In 2024, we hosted two gay group cruises with Virgin Voyages! We first visited Greece, Croatia, and Montenegro then explored Spain, France, and Italy. Looking ahead to 2025, we’re excited to host three Virgin Voyages cruises in the Caribbean, Med, and Northern Europe. And after last year’s overwhelming success, we’ll also be hosting a land tour in Spain, where we’ll explore Barcelona and Sitges. All of our friends and followers are invited to join any (or all!) of these trips! Want to learn more? Check out the details below and let us know if you’ll be joining us to explore these incredible destinations.

Gay Travel Guide to Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is one of the most popular destinations to visit in Latin America. This European-esque city with Latin flavor has plenty to offer from its mix of architectures, local wines, unique dance styles, and fascinating cultural history that’s visibly changing and progressing every year. It certainly stands out from other cities in the region. LGBTQ+ rights in Argentina are quite evolved compared to the rest of the continent and Buenos Aires is a leader in Latin American. It was the second country of the Americas to allow same-sex marriage after Canada and was the first in Latin America back in 2010.
