Berlin · LGBTQ-FRIENDLY
Berlin gives you more free hours than most cities and fewer good ways to spend them. These 5 lgbtq-friendly tours are the ones that earn the slot, priced and timed.
Schöneberg queer walking tour in Berlin: Nationalhof, Motzstraße and El Dorado, Isherwood home, guided by Tobias for 2.5 hours at $23.

A small-group LGBTQ walking tour through Schöneberg, Tiergarten, Kreuzberg, plus Südblock and the Schwules Museum in about 3.5 hours.
“Great tour, perfect guide! Probably the museum should not be mentioned in the program. I went there because i wanted to, but by one side i believe the tour is richer per se. I was the only one interested to see the museum also.”
A 2-hour small-group street art and queer history walk in Schöneberg and Nollendorf, with Urban Nation, a church, and a free map.
“The guide was friendly, warm, knowledgeable and insightful. She personalised the experience for us which gave it a certain je nais se quois. Would recommend it for anyone in the queer community who loves art and history. A big thanks!”
A 3-hour Queer Berlin walking tour tracing LGBTQ+ history from Magnus Hirschfeld and Schöneberg to Cabaret, Bowie, and Cold War Berlin.

A 2.5-hour queer operetta at BKA Theater in Berlin, mixing catchy songs, funny drama, and a cozy night out with theater gastronomy.
“This application probably made a mistake. It says on your application that show starts at 8 pm so that’s what I planned and came 7:45 pm prior the show. But the problem was that the show actually started at 7 pm so I missed almost half of it.. and it’s all because of your mistake. So I would like to get my money back due to this problem.. I actually wasn’t able to watch the show because the big part of it I just missed it because of your mistake. So I would like to get my refund, thank you.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
