Overview

Amsterdam is known throughout the world for its tolerance and freedom and is a pioneer city in legislation of both prostitution and so-called soft drugs. But do you really know what is allowed and what is not? Do you want to know how the famous Red Light District works?

Through this walking tour of some of the oldest streets in the Dutch capital, you will discover all the secrets of the Amsterdam’s nightlife.

The access to the district is limited and it is not possible to take a guided tour inside, so on this tour an expert guide will tell you its history, its operation and will give all the keys so that you can discover its corners more hidden on your own.

In this area of the city we will see the highest concentration of Coffee Shops, where the use of marijuana is allowed and also Smart Shops, shops where you can buy legal drugs such as magic mushrooms.

A unique tour recommended for all those who dare to discover what lies behind the striking red lights of the Red Light District.
