In front of the stock- and commodities exchange buildings, built where the Amtel river used to flow, we discuss the origins of Amsterdam and how water and finance influenced the city.

In the old harbor, we discuss the origins of the Red Light District, the role of the Church, and how the holy and the profane have found surprising ways to work and profit from each other over time & the state of prostitution in the 20th and 21st Century: how and why prostitution became a legal profession, how the neighbourhood has changed over time and the current challenges facing the most infamous neighbourhood of Amsterdam.

5.00Gianni was a great guide. Super fun to be around and very knowledgeable. He explained everything in detail and had maps and visual aids to help us better grasp the concepts. The walking pace is perfect for everyone and his way of explaining things makes the tour very engaging. The waffle tasted great and I felt very welcomed overall.
Excellent

5.00Jaap was an excellent guide. He is representative of the big difference between taking a tour with a true historian vs just a guide. He was entertaining and engaging, taught us a lot, and debunked several “myths” we had heard in the past.
Best walking tour of Amsterdam!

5.00Tour guide Daan was knowledgeable, funny, and entertaining. He showed us historical sites and had extensive recall of facts about each. He also shared practical recommendations for local restaurants and bars which made us feel at home and as if we lived there. Thanks Daan - can’t recommend the tour enough.
Great walking tour, so enjoyable and informative. Thoroughly recommend.

5.00Loved it. Noé is an excellent guide. A really nice friendly informal manner and great way of explaining about the history and society of Amsterdam. So knowledgable and able to respond all sorts of random questions too. Now I know what a coffee shop is and isn’t and why the red light district is called that! Plus many more facts that will remain in my memory. Thoroughly recommend
