Really enjoyed our tour of the Red Light District while in Amsterdam. Travelling from Ireland, it was lovely to meet our tour guide Aaron who was also Irish. The tour was fun, informative, and we got to take in so many sights around the city. Would definitely recommend this tour. It’s not just prostitution and brothels either, there’s a lot of culture and history about the city in general rolled into this one tour. 10/10 from me!

I learned so much about the red light district with Jay. He advised us on the proper etiquette in the district and kept our group together as we walked the incredibly packed alleys. The group was given plenty of options depending on our comfort and communication was excellent. Would recommend to other solo travelers who are hesitant going to the RLD solo.

Our tour guide was knowledgeable and witty. The time we picked is rather uneventful. It’s better to go late per guide. I would recommend that BEFORE the tour starts is a good time to tell people about the bicycles as we were told as we were trying to follow him as he led us into the street to cross and many of us nearly crashed into bikers. Everything else was good.
