About Us

Gay Guides started out as gaythailand.com. The website was started by two guys who traveled to Thailand and fell in love with the country and the people in the country. Over the years, the site went through several changes and decided to expand to more general information about gay guides to cities around the world. We still love Thailand. But, I have now visited over 80 different countries and love to learn about different cities around the world and the gay scene in those cities!
