'A charming and knowledgeable expert in gay history' - Bent Magazine



A walk around Bloomsbury - one of the most elegant areas of Central London - exploring the diverse, inspiring and surprising people, places and events that have shaped life for lesbian, gay, bi, trans and queer people over the centuries. The tour lasts about 2 hours.


Hear about:

  • the Bloomsbury Group of free-loving intellectuals
  • Britain's legendary LGBTQ+ bookshop
  • the lesbian pioneers of women's medicine
  • the new trans flag road crossing
  • an 18th century 'queer' space
  • Victorians who crossed genders
  • how a landmark lesbian novel was banned
  • a historic queer-friendly 'bohemian' pub 

...and learn some Polari, London's secret gay language!
