Every statue, every square, every street carries a version of history. But whose stories are missing? This project was born to reclaim space, to question what we’re told and to empower a community to tell its own stories.
When stories aren’t told properly, when there’s no vocabulary to understand the past, the illusion of superiority prevails. The challenge is to create our own alphabet.
This isn’t tourism on autopilot. Our guides welcome you like part of the community, not part of a crowd on a schedule.
This is a curation of queer & queer-friendly venues, events, artists & services in Lisbon. The spaces and services selected for this guide are the ones we truly recommend, this is not a casual selection.
Our tours are for anyone, queer folks, allies, locals, and travelers who want to explore Madrid through a deeper, authentic lens. No academic background needed, just openness and curiosity.
In case of light rain, the tour will go ahead as planned. For heavy or continuous rain, you’ll receive a full refund. We’re a very small, independent company, and every cancelled tour has an impact on us. Whenever possible, turning your booking into a future voucher is a meaningful way to support our initiative and help us keep going.
All of our tours can be guided in either English or Portuguese. We also offer tours in Spanish upon request.
Not at all! We welcome everyone who wants to engage respectfully with queer history and community. This is a space for listening, learning, and connecting.
Our historical and food tours can be totally adapted for younger audiences. Some topics are sensitive, so feel free to reach out, we’re an educational project and happy to adjust based on your needs.
As the first queer-led tourism project in Lisbon, we create space for counter-narratives and community-building, rooted in local queer memory and resistance.
Our tours uncover Portugal’s colonial past, and queer histories – often erased in mainstream tourism. Developed with academics and cultural workers.
Our team isn’t just local, we’re embedded in Lisbon’s queer, migrant, and activist networks. We walk with lived experience, intellectual depth, and deep care, turning every encounter into meaningful exchange.
Whether you’re a feminist researcher, a curious artist, or a first-time visitor, we’ll adapt the pace, focus, and content to align with your interests.
