Group Travel, Rio—1990s style

STORY: 1989 to mid-1990s—My husband, Ron Oyer, had a travel business in the 1990s that catered to gay men, geographically mostly from California and New York, though also from many other states. Puerto Vallarta (Mexico), Mykonos (Greece), and Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), were the most popular destinations.

The groups featured handsome men looking for excitement and fun. As you can see from the following pictures taken during several different trips in the 1990s to Rio de Janeiro at New Year's and over Carnival, they found what they were looking for in that sultry beach city.
