    Very much enjoyed the red light district tour. A little too much chatting at the beginning but once we got moving was really great. Our guide was awesome. I appreciated his talents in being able to communicate the respect that is needed and should be given when you’re in the red light district to the workers. Really glad I went and glad I went at night to see the happenings.

  • Great tour

    Sander was great. He walked us through the red light district and gave us great history on the area and Amsterdam itself. We also walked beyond the red light district to see some other areas and how they evolved. Sander was great fun and knew the history very well. I highly recommend this tour.

    Sander was a marvelous guide ..... We went on a family tour of the red light district with him. He adjusted his walking pace to accommodate the group and gave us a real insight into the history of the area. We learnt about the licences, rentals of rooms, the development of the area, and the governments future plans alongside loads of other things. So much better than wandering on your own. Highly recommend

    Amazing tour! Sander gave an excellent tour. He gave a history of Amsterdam and the Red Light District at the beginning of the tour so you could understand the evolution of the area. Chinatown and Red Light District were very interesting, very busy, and an eye full. This tour should not be missed!
