RSVP CRUISES
RSVP has been in the game of gay cruises for far longer than most companies, coming up on 30 years of service to 100,000+ guests. The company takes pride in its all-inclusive approach which invites travelers of any age, gender, nationality and relationship status to hop aboard. Once there, you’ll be privy to singles’ dinners, theme parties, inspirational speakers and screenings of hot new films. RSVP also has a knack for attracting esteemed guests and performers to their stage for comedy, cabaret and concerts. This year, RSVP will lead the “largest gay cruise ever” on their Caribbean trip. Each ship is chartered exclusively for RSVP guests. Women make up about 10% of RSVP clients, about half of guests are single and allies are welcome to travel along. www.rsvpvacations.com

SOURCE
Source Events prides itself on catering to the mind, body and spirit of its guests. That’s why it offers onboard yoga, inspired guest speakers, a professional staff of wellness experts and two cruises that are completely in the buff with Gay Naturists International. You can expect a “cerebral” tour that satisfies both mind and soul. Trips are small, with 100-300 guests so you’ll get to know most of your fellow passengers. The Source clientele tends to tilt toward “mature passengers” (many of whom book repeat trips) with an average age of 47 and about 50% singles. www.sourceevents.com

UNDERSEA EXPEDITIONS
Booking a trip with Undersea Expeditions, a scuba diving company, will put you in close proximity to striking underwater species including manta rays, sharks and octopus. You’ll also get a glimpse into the cultural heritage of the region on group outings. This staff of licensed divers understands that there’s nothing quite like relaxing with a splendid meal once you’ve dried off, so each trip includes top-notch catering and comfortable accommodations so you can rest up for tomorrow’s adventure. Most trips operate out of a resort, with dive boats running throughout the day. Not certified? No problem—many trips include training and scuba dive certification for beginners. www.underseax.com
