Gregg Kaminsky

Travel Advisor

Gregg Kaminsky is a seasoned travel entrepreneur with nearly 30 years of experience, known for crafting specialized vacations worldwide, primarily for the LGBTQ community. In 2003, he co-founded R Family Vacations with business partner Kelli Carpenter, creating the first travel company focused on LGBTQ families and their friends. The company’s impact was showcased in HBO’s “All Aboard!” which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, received a GLAAD Award, and earned an Emmy nomination. As the company evolved to offer a broader range of travel experiences, it rebranded as KelliGregg Travel.

Over 20,000 guests have embarked on unforgettable journeys with KelliGregg Travel. The company partners with Uniworld Boutique River Cruises to host full-ship LGBT sailings, while also offering yacht charters in Croatia, tours across Ireland, Scotland, and Thailand, large group trips with Celebrity, NCL, and Royal Caribbean, as well as hosted excursions to Antarctica.

Kaminsky’s contributions earned him a place on the “OUT 100” list, recognizing influential figures in the LGBTQ community, and he has received the Hall of Fame Award from the International LGBTQ+ Travel Association (IGLTA). He is a graduate of the University of Texas and holds an MBA from the University of Southern California. Kaminsky resides between New York and Aspen with his husband Dan and their Jack Russell Terrier, Wellington. The couple was also featured on Bravo’s “Gay Weddings.” Passionate about travel, Kaminsky humorously notes that he experiences withdrawal if he isn’t at an airport every few weeks.
