Minneapolis-based RSVP Vacations, the first travel company to produce gay and lesbian cruises, today kicks off its yearlong celebration to mark 25 years of gay and lesbian cruises.  As part of its Silver Anniversary year, RSVP announced its first ever cruise to one of the company's most requested destinations – the Hawaiian Islands. 

The company designs unique travel packages aimed at gay and lesbian travelers. RSVP signed its first cruise ship charter in 1985 and hosted its first all-gay cruise in 1986.  Since then, the company has served more than 80,000 customers with a range of large and small ocean cruises, riverboat cruises, resort vacations and land tours.

"We're thrilled and honored to have been a central force in the growth and evolution of gay and lesbian travel throughout the last 25 years," says Charlie Rounds, president.  "RSVP is still creating unique cruise and resort experiences that bring together gays and lesbians from all walks of life, celebrating the great diversity of our community."

Reservations for all RSVP programs can be made through most travel agencies or directly from RSVP.  Visit rsvpvacations.com for more information.
