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.

Damrak

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.

We weren’t quite sure what to expect at first, but once we got moving we knew Raymond would never lead us astray on this tour. His knowledge was fantastic! We learned so many things about many time periods in history, and many locations throughout the city. Raymond was a great conversationalist and answered every question! This tour was perfect length on a brisk day. For the price (free!) you cannot beat this tour!!! You’ll be inspired to leave a big tip. 10/10, 5 stars!
The instructor was really good at what he does being an history student made him have depth knowledge of the city.

It was a mind blowing tour, learnt more about the city, the use of bicycles in the city, building design and identification, major occupation back in the days, the museum, the red light street, the old church, the jew community and the use of woods for building foundation construction, that which interest me the most.

Great tour. Our guide, Aris, was fantastic. I see why this free tour is so highly rated. Learned a lot and saw a lot. I highly recommend it, especially if you can spend the 2-1/2 hours with Aris.
