    The tour was amazing. Stephanie, my girlfriend, and I really enjoyed the tour. the best tour I have ever been on. If you are queer and have come to Lisbon, this tour is a must. Alex was extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and supplied us with a compendium of all that us queer in Lisbon.

    The Queer Lisbon tour with Alex was a real highlight of my time in Lisbon. Alex is a fantastic guide, super knowledgeable about both the city and its queer history, and really easy to spend time with. He also shared a document called “Alex’s long list” which has been incredibly useful for planning my time in Portugal. The tour itself was a great mix of history, stories, and local insight, and I really enjoyed meeting the other travellers along the way. Highly recommend if you’re in Lisbon and want something a bit more meaningful than a standard walking tour.

  • Highly recommended 😃

    Alex was an exceptional guide who delivered a deeply engaging and thought-provoking tour of Lisbon’s queer history. His passion for the subject was evident throughout, and his enthusiasm made the experience both compelling and memorable. The depth and nuance of his knowledge were particularly impressive—it was clear that he has dedicated significant personal research to developing the tour, reflected in the rich detail, personal narratives, and thoughtful connections he drew between broader Lisbon history and the evolution of queer rights and visibility. Alex approached the subject with both honesty and sensitivity, addressing difficult chapters such as the Inquisition, repression during the dictatorship, and the challenges that followed the Carnation Revolution. Importantly, he balanced these moments by highlighting the resilience, courage, and activism of individuals who helped shape the vibrant and inclusive queer culture present in Lisbon today. This tour offers a meaningful and unique perspective on the city, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to better understand Lisbon’s history and its diverse communities.

    Single cis-lesbian here! I recently joined Alex’s queer history tour in Lisbon, and it was hands-down one of the most captivating and moving experiences of my travels. As a history buff with a passion for queer culture, I was blown away by Alex’s deep knowledge and personal background in the field. He didn’t just recite facts—he wove them into a vivid, emotional narrative that brought Lisbon’s hidden queer past to life, from overlooked landmarks to untold stories of resilience and love. Walking the city’s streets with him felt like uncovering a secret layer of history that’s rarely shared. His passion for Lisbon and its queer heritage shines through every step, stirring real emotions and a profound appreciation for the community’s enduring spirit. Four hours flew by—honestly, it wasn’t nearly enough! Alex is an amazing guide: warm, thorough, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone feels connected. The best part? You’ll meet fellow travelers who share your curiosity for queer history, turning the tour into a mini-community vibe. If you’re in Lisbon, TAKE THIS TOUR. It’s not just informative; it’s transformative. Book now—you won’t regret it! 5/5 stars – Highly recommended!

    Alex was incredible, given the weather was far from ideal we decided to go ahead. Alex greeted us at the meeting point (with umbrellas) and from that moment on the learning / discovery of the city unfolded. Listening to the history of the city and also the LGBT history and wider context was fascinating. Alex also made sure we had plenty of opportunity to rest and made sure we were able to ask questions and answered them all. Loved every minute of the tour!
