Amsterdam: Walking Tour of the Red Light District – North Holland, Netherlands

EXPERIENCE

Amsterdam’s Red Light District is unique: What other countries hide or prohibit is legal in the Netherlands. Visit the neighborhood and learn all about the world’s oldest profession.

Meet your guide and head into the heart of Amsterdam’s Red Light District on a 2-hour walking tour.

The guide will answer any questions you may have and tell you about origins of the neighborhood and the status of prostitution.

Walk along the Warmoesstraat (gay street) and see the Condomerie. Hear everything about the PIC (Information Centre on Prostitution), the Sex Museum, Erotic Museum, the prostitutes’ cabins, and venues that feature live sex and peep shows.

Then you’ll have 10 minutes of free walking time in which you can see the Oude Kerk (Old Church) area and the heart of the Red Light District on your own (due to a law, from 2020 it is not allowed to do guided tours inside the Red Light District itself, but in the outskirts). After that, walk to Chinatown and the biggest Buddhist temple in Europe with your guide.
