From wintry trips for outdoorsy types to adventurous bucket-list excursions, these unforgettable trips offer gay-friendly travel all over the world.

3 . Mountain bike and whitewater raft in Costa Rica
As the first Central American country to legalise same-sex marriage and with numerous laws in place to protect the LGBTQ community from discrimination, Costa Rica has been a gay-friendly holiday destination for decades. You can do as much or as little as you like on this trip. Active types will love the chance to spot sloths on a moonlit hike, whitewater raft down the Balsa River and try a guided mountain bike adventure. But there’s still time for spa treatments, poolside cocktails and beachside lounging, if that all sounds like hard work.

A dream for those who love great food, chic style and jawdropping architecture, the northern Italian cities of Milan and Rome are also a great choice for LGBTQ travellers.
