Happy Pride Month!🌈
No doubt, today, and this month, you'll see a lot of companies changing their logos to rainbow colors to 'support' Pride. Sadly, come July 1, they'll switch back, as if Pride never happened.
Here at LGT though, we honor, respect and support our LGBTQIA+ family, friends and travelers all year long. It's not just a rainbow flag for a few days out of the year for us. Sure, we go to events during June, and we have a few doo-dads with rainbows on them, but that's not our personality. We know that the community is so much more than that. We're proud members of IGLTA and we make sure that our travelers are safe, no matter what destination they chose to go to.
If you want to support Pride this month, check out IGLTA's list of Pride events: https://www.iglta.org/events/pride-calendar/?bounds=false&view=list&sort=date
If you'd like to travel to any of them, we have the perfect specialists to take care of you!

No matter how small your stride is, as long as you take enough steps, you'll be able to travel further than you've ever imagined.
Even the smallest of hobbits were able to traverse the entirety of Middle Earth.
If a hobbit, who can barely contemplate the idea of missing a meal, can manage to leave the comfort of his hobbit hole and embrace the unknown, then can’t we all?
Happy !

Happy Pi Day!🥧
π has been in use for more than 250 years, and since it can never fully be calculated, we can never find the accurate area or circumference of a circle. As travel specialists, we do a LOT of math, and as math nerds, we have a lot of fun with π day!
