Paris, Paris
LGBTQ+ walking tours of Paris exploring queer history and culture.
The Gay Locals is a Paris tour company offering private LGBTQ+ walking tours and custom itinerary planning, founded in 2015 by Bryan Pirolli, a Philadelphia-born journalist who moved to Paris in 2008 and earned his PhD at the Sorbonne. The tours dig into the city's queer history through neighborhoods like Le Marais and Montmartre, with an eye for the artists and figures who shaped them. The approach is deliberately low-key rather than flashy: the goal is to demystify queer life in Paris and make travelers comfortable in it, which lands especially well for visitors coming from places without a thriving gay community. Clients range from honeymooning couples to older groups traveling together, and because the tours are private, the route and pace are built around who's actually on them.
