Overview

This experience aims to provide an accessible tour through the central area of ​​Porto, recalling impactful moments that defined LGBTQIAP+ history in the city. Given by a gay person native to this city who has experienced these events throughout his 37 years of life. It's an intimate experience that focuses on the social evolution and awareness of the LGBTQIAP+ community over the years and how the city began its journey towards inclusion. We will embark together on a journey remembering facts and analyzing the paradox between two times and destinations in the history of the LGBTQIAP+ community: the 80s to the present day. We will visit different tourist spots that at first glance we would not realize their impact on the community and visit inclusive spaces. We will end with a conversation at one of the best known spots in Porto, where we can better understand the legacy and activism carried out by those who fought, so that this excursion could exist today in an openly gay way.

A hidden gem

Published on Jan, 2025

It was a great experience. If you want to have a not so touristy experience that shows you a different side of Porto we really recommend this tour. Ricardo is a true activist and a very inspiring guide who answered all our questions. ❤️

Heartfelt LGBT Tour not to be missed

Published on Sep, 2024

I recently went on an LGBT tour in Porto with Ricardo, and it was an unforgettable experience. Ricardo was incredibly open, sharing intimate stories from his own life, which made the tour feel personal and authentic. His openness created a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, and his knowledge of the city’s LGBTQIA+ history and culture was impressive. Ricardo's passion for both Porto and the LGBTQIA+ community truly shone through, making this tour not just informative but also deeply meaningful. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore Porto through a unique and heartfelt lens.

What a pleasure it was to meet Ricardo and learn about Porto’s LGBT+ history - some of which is quite surprising and I’m still thinking about it the next day. He is a wonderful guide and is very knowledgeable and thoughtful - when I arrived I told him I was a bit fatigued due to a disability and he very kindly reduced the amount of walking involved and we proceeded a bit slower. Also he went ahead with the tour despite me being the only booking that day which is so nice (I’m sure he could have cancelled). Thank you Ricardo!
