Why Wanderkin

Made for queer travel from the start

Verification, public plans, and safety details in one app.

  1. Every user is verified

    Selfie verification is mandatory before anyone can message, post, or join a meetup. No exceptions. This is the trust foundation that no other travel app has.

  2. See what's happening tonight

    Public plans from people with overlapping trips: dinner at a queer friendly restaurant, a walking tour, drinks at a rooftop bar. Tap to join. Every attendee is verified, every venue links to a queer friendly place listing with safety tags.

  3. Browse cities from your sofa

    Not traveling yet? Scroll through Barcelona, Tokyo, or Cape Town and see public meetup listings and city activity. When you spot something you want to join, add a trip and you're in.

  4. City feeds from recent trips

    Not reviews from 2019. Recent recommendations, safety notes, and trip details from people who were there last night.

  5. Is this place actually safe for me?

    A queer friendly places directory with crowdsourced safety tags: gender neutral bathrooms, staff trained on pronouns, neighbourhood safety at night. Meetup locations link directly to these listings.

Every user is verified

Our story

Why we built Wanderkin

We're Tai and Tina, a married lesbian couple based in London. We built Wanderkin because we kept running into the same problem: every time one of us traveled solo, finding queer community in a new city was either impossible or required days of trial and error.

The technology to fix that has existed for years. Nobody built it for us. So we did.

Tai and Tina, cofounders

  • cool app

    I travelled couple weeks ago and made use of this app and I met some nice queer travelers. Lovely to use app made for us 👌

  • Best app for LGBT travellers

    It’s hard to find LGBT local friend when travelling . This app solves the issue. So many fun spot and event, and you can connect with LGBT gay friends to go together.

    I love the idea of making it easier to meet LGBTQ+ travel friends. Travelling is as much about the people you meet as the places you visit, so it’s lovely to see an app built around that connection.

How does verification work?

Everyone completes a selfie check before they can message someone, post, or join a meetup. It helps everyone know there is a real person behind each profile.

Do I need to be traveling to use it?

No. You can browse the city feed for anywhere you are curious about. To join a meetup, you need an eligible trip or current city.

How much does Wanderkin cost?

Wanderkin Premium starts from $0.96 per week. The App Store shows the current price in your currency before you confirm anything.

Is Wanderkin on Android?
