" GayCrawler's gay and lesbian search engine launches its Virtual Travel Agency. More than 500 gay and "gayfriendly" destinations are available across the world; Mexico, Brazil, Thailand, the Caribbeans, Europe" in french, english and spanish. All of the available destinations offer interesting touristic information and numerous photos.

According to Mr. Gerard Spatafora, President of GayCrawler.com, this is an important step toward the creation of a complete portal offering Internet services to the gay and lesbian community across the world. "We are proud to offer travel destinations dedicated to the members of a community which represents 10 to 15% of the world's population."

Created and operated by a team of professionnals with years of experience in the tourism industry, this specialized Internet travel service is adapted to the needs of the members of this community who wish to travel with peace of mind. In fact, the packages offered are destinations where gays and lesbians are welcomed and where they will not fear to suffer from any discrimination.

In order to insure the commercial success of this new service, GayCrawler.com has developped a powerful affiliation program enabling other sites to offer and sell the travel destinations and services. Internet users will have the opportunity to participate in a full scale contest upon the launch of the web site. The participants will be eligible to win a trip every trimester.
