Why Book With Concierge
When you book with Concierge Travel you are booking with an agency that not only knows cruise and vacation packages but that also designs its own land tours and small-ship cruises specifically for gay and lesbian travelers. We provide customized, personalized service, whether on our own tours and cruises or on the vacations that we book for our guests with other LGBT tour operators.
Award Winning Experts in Gay Travel
We are gay travel experts working closely with the LGBT community and tour operators to create and customize trips for you that are tailored to your interests and to the way that you like to travel.
What makes us experts on gay travel? Simple. We listen to the feedback, input and great ideas from our thousands of gay and lesbian guests. And we're gay travellers ourselves. We've circled the globe many times over and have taken vacations side-by-side with you, our guests – from 2,000-passenger RSVP Caribbean cruises to our own Galapagos Islands small-ship cruise. We've been there with you, and we know how to make a great vacation even better.
Our staff has more than 80 years of combined experience working in the travel industry and we know what type of trip you are looking for. Concierge Travel was named Houston's "Gayest & Greatest Travel Agency" by OutSmart Magazine in 2010, an honor it has received each year since 2002. It was also named "Best LGBT Cruise or Tour Company" in 2010. We are now the largest gay travel agency in the state of Texas, and the largest travel agency in the world for RSVP Vacations. We can offer insight into helping you get the vacation you want.
At the same time, we're still a boutique travel agency and will spend as much time with you as you need to plan your trip. We'll walk you through the whole process, answering any questions and ensuring that you feel comfortable and confident in your travel plans.
We also partner with the best mainstream travel providers, including Celebrity Cruises and Star Clippers, to offer top-notch travel experiences for our gay and lesbian guests. And we provide a luxury experience on our custom land tours by using exclusively four and five-star hotels from the top companies, including: Orient Express, Leading Hotels of the World, Great Hotels of the World, and Starwood Luxury Collection.
We Give Back to the LGBT Community
We are also a key supporter and integral part of the LGBT community. We donate 20 percent of our travel revenue annually to LGBT non-profits. In 2009 alone we gave over $50,000 to LGBT non-profits. On any new client booking, we will donate 20 percent of our commission to the non-profit organization of our guest's choice.
We are a Bronze National Partner of the Human Rights Campaign, the U.S.'s largest LGBT civil rights organization. Concierge Travel also supports a number of other key regional and national LGBT organizations, including: Bayou City Boys Club, Bunnies on the Bayou, Houston and Dallas Black Tie Dinners, Houston Pride Band, The Diana Foundation, Halloween New Orleans, and the Gay Softball World Series.
