Outwest Global Adventures (OWGA) specializes in both, programmed tours as well as custom group trips for the LGBT community. Since its humble beginnings in 1995, OWGA has grown into a worldwide LGBT adventure outfitter catering to active travelers. I have taken six memorable trips with them and I'm about to embark with them once again for my eighth trip on my Civil Service retirement celebration trip with my partner, returning to my favorite ski destination of all, Zermatt, Switzerland.
OWGA's owners and organizers, Aaron and David, are extremely devoted to ensure unmatched customer service, and at the same time that the traveler embarks on an organized tour, the trips offer a high degree of personal attention and personalization. The trips are usually made up of 12-20 people with some exceptions such as one trip to Aspen Gay Ski Week that had a huge gathering. Trips are organized year-round, covering literally every continent. The LGBT nature of the trips is absolutely open, and every place and locale is screened for its suitability. I've done two Aspen Ski Weeks, a trip to Zermatt and a trip to St. Moritz, Switzerland, a trip to Katschberg, Austria, and one to Red Lodge and Big Sky, MT. Although most of my trips have been Winter trips, they have a plethora of year-round trips to wonderfully exotic destinations, from bicycling Tuscany, to hiking in Spain, to Cambodia and Vietnam.
Outstanding customer service and value. read more
