A Trusted LGBTQ+ Travel Resource for U.S. Cities, Counties, and Their Visitors

Whether you're planning a vacation, traveling for business, or dreaming of your next trip, this hub is your go-to guide for LGBTQ+ safety, community, and global support.

Over 500 anti-LGBTQ+ bills were proposed in 2023-24 in the U.S, and 75 were turned into laws. Demonstrations against LGBTQ rights in the U.S. have increased 30 times since 2017. This makes “traveling while gay” in the U.S. extremely risky in some states.

Nevermind in some parts of the world, where same sex relationships are forbidden - and in some parts of the world, even punished.

This is why you, as a member of the LGBTQ community, need to arm yourself with as much knowledge as possible before you go. Because the last thing you need is to have your trip cut short, or have to call the U.S. embassy, or worse, the local police.

We at misterb&b, the largest community of LGBTQ+ travelers, created this resource page for you to keep safe. We want to arm you with everything we know: tips, hacks, and helpful safety information to keep handy during your travel.
