The number of places where LGBT Travelers can be themselves, has grown immensely in the past few years. There are plenty of cruises and tours that specifically cater to gay travelers. But the vacation that once existed out of necessity is now often simply a vacation — be it a routine Family getaway, a destination wedding or a romantic weekend. I can help you plan that long awaited vacation! The vacation that I can plan for you, has no limits. I can arrange your destination wedding, destination reception, family getaway, or the romantic honeymoon that you and your partner have been anxious to have. My goal is to offer you the unique vacation that you have been looking for, with the expertise on destinations that are Gay and Lesbian friendly. I am Gay Wedding Institute certified in planning your destination wedding or honeymoon. I have arranged large cruise groups and smaller all inclusive groups to Mexico. Let's work together to plan your next vacation and see where your bucket list takes you!

Senior trip
Reviewed By Michelle Bebeau - Centerville, Mn | Traveled to Mexico
Every detail was covered, The destinations exceeded my expectations! I have been to other resorts in Mexico that were not half as nice. Some how she managed to get 70 people to and from Mexico with no issues. I trust Jackie to pick a nice place for me to relax!

    Jamaica with Friends
    Jackie, Thank you so much for all your help in setting us up on our wonderful vacation. The resort and the people were awesome. We couldn't have had a better time. Jamie and I were very impressed with everything. We would recommend the Jewel Dunns River to anyone who asked. Thank you for the bottle of wine waiting in our room and for requesting that the resort put our room and the Webb's room right next to each other. The weather was perfect and we didn't want to come home. Next time we are looking to book a vacation we will not hesitate to contact you. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING !!!!

    Our Jamaica Adventure!
    We had an amazing vacation!! The day we got there it had rained all day and every day prior for a week. We got lucky and had wonderful weather!! The Jewel Dunn's River was an absolutely wonderful resort......not one complaint....okay well maybe I could have had a flatter pillow! We went to the Blue Hole which was an amazing excursion!!! I now know I love resorts without kids also!! Bonus since myself and Jamie both do daycare. Thanks for sending the wine to us, it was a nice thought! The Mobay Club was also a nice addition!! Thanks for helping us to go on another amazing vacation.....we appreciate you!!

    Much needed R & R
    Hey Jackie - just wanted to let you know the trip ended up great! We found an awesome area of town I had ever been to before that had so many little bars and locals mixed with ex-pats it was awesome. I did some of my own ex-pat research! The hotel did lack in some areas but the service, people, food and drinks were awesome! Just not much for pool parties and partying in general there but we did our partying in town so all good.

    Birthday Celebration in Cancun
    Hi Jackie, We had a wonderful time at this resort. The resort was beautiful. Great service. Huge variety of food. Lots of high quality shows. Lots of pool activities. We only dined at the steakhouse which was fabulous for the specialty restaurants. We had 2 birthday boys (my brother turned 50 and my son turned 15) this week, both of whom enjoyed the singing by the staff in the dining room. LOL! Overall we would definitely stay here again! Thanks again for all of your help in making this a great vacation for my family! Hopefully we will work with you again for any of our future travels!!!

    Excellent Bachelorette party and honeymoon
    We recently used Travel Leaders to plan our honeymoon as well as my bachelorette party in Vegas through your representative, Jackie Taylor and I wanted to send a review of her services for future prospects thinking about going with a travel agent (and Jackie, specifically). We had a GREAT experience! Jackie was so helpful when we were planning the bachelorette trip to Vegas, assisting us with coordinating multiple flights and getting us a great deal during a very busy weekend on the strip! She was wonderful in helping my husband and I plan our honeymoon. Jackie suggested a beautiful resort in Jamaica and we had an amazing time during our trip last week. We would have never considered Jamaica had Jackie not weighed in. She was prompt, fun, energetic, and caring during the entire process, which was stressful at times. We are so glad that we decided to use Jackie's services throughout this past year and will definitely be reaching out to her in the future for our travel needs.

    LGBT Travel to Mexico/Riviera Maya/Punta Cana
    I would like to commend Jackie on the amazing job she did on planning our vacation. With the abundance of all-inclusive resorts, it was a daunting challenge trying to pick one on my own. After contacting Jackie, I found her expertise in this area a breath of fresh air. After telling her about what we were looking for in a resort, she was able to pinpoint a perfect property. The resort not only met our expectations, but exceeded them. From here on out, I’m entrusting Jackie with all my travel needs… it just makes sense to use a travel agent
