Our guide Pedro was extremely knowledgeable. He shared many facts about Amsterdam that were related to the red light district as well as many other historical facts and events related to Amsterdam. Also we had originally been scheduled for a 6:00 time slot and he welcomed us to join him with another small group at 4:00 . Thanks Pedro

The meeting place was easy to find. We were a small group which enabled us to stay together easily and I was able to hear all the information clearly. David our guide was informative engaging and when appropriate amusing in his delivery of the history and evolution of the area. The beer was also nice but potent for a pensioner. A couple of hours well spent.

YOU MUST TAKE THIS TOUR. This is an excellent way to learn about the history of the Red Light District. Although there's a museum you can go to, this walking tour is BETTER. The guide walked us through the city and gave us a comprehensive look at the history and current events. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Don't forget to tip the guides!!!
