Gems of sarasota, florida's gulf coast: explore the beauty, southwest florida: fort myers, naples, and marco island, more about florida.

Orlando offers world-class theme parks that feature all types of entertainment, food and shopping options. If the seaside is more what you're looking for, just about the entire state is surrounded by coastline and a beach is never far away. Sophisticated vibes in Miami or a more laid-back atmosphere in Fort Lauderdale & Hollywood may be the backdrop to your dream vacation, but it doesn't stop there – you can experience a bit of island life in the Florida Keys, or head to the Gulf Coast and discover more beaches and history in Fort Myers, Naples & Marco Island. The nearby city of Sarasota offers miles of coastline, and Tampa, Clearwater & St. Petersburg offer a hub of activities. The ocean and its many activities are a primary focus of this state.

Before You Go

• To make it easier to replace your passport if it’s lost or stolen, in addition to your passport, take a photocopy of your passport information page (keeping it separate from your actual passport).
• Carry only a limited amount of cash, just enough for gratuities and incidental purchases. Major credit cards are widely accepted and can be replaced if lost or stolen.
• Always lock your hotel room door (including patio and balcony door on any level of the building) and use the peephole before opening the door.
• Store your valuables (such as cash, credit cards and airline tickets) in the hotel’s in-room safe or front desk safety deposit box.
• If you must carry valuables on your person, do so in a pouch or money belt concealed under your clothing. Purses and backpacks can be easy targets for thieves.

What we do best

At go travel, we offer a wide arrangement of travel services from airfare and tours to luxury cruises and tailor-made vacations. here's a bit more about what we love to do.

Customized Tours   ---------

We are all different. We have different passions, interests and aspirations... especially when it comes to travel. To some, it's a full-day of sightseeing with an expert historian to some of the most culturally rich ruins and cathedrals in Rome. To some, it's an afternoon of shopping in the high-end districts of Paris followed by an evening of wining and dining along the Champs-Élysées. And to others, it's an immersive journey into China with a combination of touring the Great Wall in Beijing, enjoying tea and dim sum with locals in Hong Kong, and exploring ancient China’s wonders aboard a scenic Yangtze River cruise.

At Go Travel, we understand that every travel adventure is personal and excel at matching you with that "wow" experience that you are seeking. This is true for shore excursions during a cruise tour just as it is true for the longer journey. From customizing your schedule to working with our tour operators to curate your ultimate adventure, from mild to wild, we are here to create for you the vacation of your dreams.

​ REQUEST A CALLBACK

Cruises   ---------

Go Travel was founded in Miami in 1979 – a time in which cruising as we know it now was just beginning to take shape. Previously, cruising had been purely destination-oriented, but over the last 40 years, cruising has evolved into an industry full of every option imaginable. The choices for guests are much clearer. Not only do you have a choice of ocean relaxation, arctic adventure, river exploration, and super luxury yachting, but also you have an onboard choice of "let's dance all night" live bands, great lecturers and education, full steady courses on computing and finances, and culinary experiences with some of the top chefs in the world. You have access to explosive entertainment, extreme expeditions, and the ultimate in luxury. The selection can vary from cruises ships catering to families and children to exclusive small ship journeys and specialty themed itineraries. Our key staff has witnessed this industry growth throughout the years and thus have the expertise and knowledge to match you with that exact cruise experience that’s best for you. With the majority of all major cruise lines being based in Florida, Go Travel’s Florida headquarters location definitely brings advantages giving us close proximity to our cruise line partners for continuous development in terms of education, negotiation, and cooperation. Because of our long history along with these close partnerships with the cruise lines, we have access to the most competitive rates and bonus amenities available. When planning your next cruise with Go Travel, you can be confident that you have the most knowledgeable professionals in the industry creating your ultimate cruise vacation.

Groups   ---------

Go Travel has been a leader in group travel for nearly 40 years. In that time, group travel has become an increasingly popular way to travel. Whether it may be a family celebration, bachelorette getaway, seminar-at-sea, or entertainment event, traveling as a group is fun, convenient and offers a fantastic opportunity for group members to network, while at the same time, see the world! You may opt for a land adventure, a shipboard journey, or a combination of both land and sea. We handle anything from small family groups to 500+ meeting/entertainment groups during which we can arrange a variety of activities including teambuilding, cocktail parties, meeting facilities, and/or specialty entertainment.

Our close relationships with partners around the globe means that your group has access to special complimentary amenities. Plus, we negotiate the most competitive rates on your behalf, so you can rest assured your guests are receiving the best possible value. Furthermore, when organizing a group, the booking process can be extremely time consuming when you need to collect from each of your friends and family their individual information and preferences. Instead, let Go Travel manage the details of your next group trip while you focus on enjoying your memorable group getaway.

Corporate Travel   ---------

Business travel planning requires expert knowledge in the complexities of organizing seamless travel arrangements while adhering to company guidelines and policies. When traveling for business, that personal touch is indispensable. Clients delaying a contract signing date... it happens. Flights being cancelled due to poor weather... it happens. But having a knowledgeable agent continuously monitoring your itinerary and making the necessary changes before you know there is even an issue... simply a smart decision. Let our team take all the worry out of your corporate travel. Ideal for small to medium sized businesses, our dedicated agents can provide not only their specialized expertise, but also the benefit of Go Travel's global negotiating strength to offer your business the most competitive rates and most favorable amenities. With policy compliance and business travel cost being major priorities, we can provide your company with customized reports to streamline your company's travel spend analysis. At Go Travel, we are passionate about delivering personalized and unparalleled travel planning while simultaneously maximizing your travel cost savings.

Connecticut courts LGBTQ+ Floridians as Florida scrubs travel info

The campaign comes after Florida removed LGBTQ+ travel information from its tourism agency website amidst the state's continued crackdown on LGBTQ+ residents.

The State of Connecticut has launched a campaign to attract LGBTQ + visitors and potential residents, with a primary focus on LGBTQ+ individuals currently living in Florida. The announcement, shared via PR Newswire by the Connecticut Office of Tourism, directly responds to Florida’s recent decision to remove LGBTQ+ travel information from its tourism website—a move that local leaders have criticized as another effort to marginalize and push out queer people in the state. Many LGBTQ+ Floridians, and especially transgender Floridians, have already left the state permanently.

“We want to send a strong message to everyone, particularly to those in Florida—and across the country—who may feel their needs and identities are being sidelined, to know that in Connecticut you will always find acceptance" said Anthony Anthony, Chief Marketing Officer for the State of Connecticut. "Here, diversity is celebrated, and we remain committed to ensuring everyone who visits or lives here feels valued, respected, and free to be yourself.”

The campaign will include guides on the Connecticut tourism website to help residents and visitors find welcoming and inclusive LGBTQ+ spaces. The release also provides information about Connecticut's local laws and policies toward LGBTQ+ individuals, such as mandated transgender healthcare coverage for both youth and adults, bans on conversion therapy, availability of gender-neutral identification documents, and comprehensive anti-discrimination laws. Additionally, the state has an active shield law protecting transgender healthcare information from being subpoenaed across state lines. Due to these protections, Connecticut has been designated as one of the “Safest States” on the Transgender Risk Assessment Map updated at ErinInTheMorning.

A significant part of the campaign will target LGBTQ+ residents in Florida, who have faced increasing crackdowns by the state government. In recent years, Florida has imposed severe bans on transgender healthcare for both youth and adults , criminal bathroom bans , threatened adults who update gender markers on their driver’s licenses with criminal fraud charges, and enacted book bans in schools on LGBTQ+ topics. These laws are currently being challenged in court, with an upcoming Supreme Court case likely to affect many of these challenges.

Connecticut currently ranks highly in LGBTQ+ protections, with several nondiscrimination laws in place, including those covering housing and public accommodations like bathrooms. It is one of 23 states that ban conversion therapy, and its ban s pecifically includes protections for both gender identity and sexuality. Additionally, the state offers expanded coverage for transgender procedures through Medicaid, including gender-confirming facial surgery.

Connecticut seems to be strategically positioning itself as a sanctuary for LGBTQ+ individuals amid a growing migration trend. A recent Data For Progress poll found that 8% of transgender adults have already left their home states, with another 40% considering relocation. This equates to about 130,000 transgender people who have already moved, many of which have fled Florida. By highlighting its inclusive policies and robust legal protections, Connecticut is seeking to make public its status as a safe haven for LGBTQ+ individuals who are increasingly compelled to leave states with laws that jeopardize their healthcare and rights.
