Hey there I'm Rob from Ireland. I'm 26 years old and love everything travel related. I moved to London some months ago and since then I've been steeping myself into the culture and history of London. I am proud to be part of the LGBTQIA+ community and ecstatic to offer a tour of the culture and history our community has in the UK

Tour description

Introduction:
Imagine walking through the bustling streets of London, but seeing it through a different lens—one that reveals the hidden stories and vibrant history of the LGBT community. This is not just another walking tour; this is a journey through time, celebrating resilience, love, and the fight for equality.

The Tour:
My LGBT History Walking Tour of London takes you to the heart of the city, uncovering tales of courage, defiance, and triumph. From the infamous Soho district to the steps of Trafalgar Square, every corner has a story waiting to be told. What makes this tour unique is not just the places we visit, but the personal stories and rich history we share stories that have shaped the LGBT community and left an indelible mark on the city.
