Many have contributed to this title which features 500 destinations that are welcoming to queer travelers. Included are destinations in North America, Latin America and the Caribbean, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia, and Australia, so pretty much anywhere one could want to go . As the introduction notes, “you deserve to go on the trip of your dreams; to experience radiant queer joy; to be celebrated.” The main contributor to this book wants this experience for all.

Readers would be wise to pay attention to the Travel Tips section. We still live in a world where caution may be needed and preparation and knowledge matter. After this are the many destinations.

Each location has a brief entry. There are also many photographs throughout this title. Overall entries are for a particular experience as, for example, Haircuts for Anyone, in Montreal. In the pages surrounding this entry are other Montreal destinations. All in all, there are 500 from around the world as noted above. Each includes a Best Time to Go and Best for (whom) note.

This book is worth a look when planning a trip. It offers suggestions of many places to explore.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Chronicle Books for this title. All opinions are my own.
