Small-Group Central Amsterdam, Red Light District, and Coffee Shop Walking Tour
Meet your local guide next to The Basilica of Saint Nicholas at 1pm to begin your afternoon exploration of the city's infamous Red Light District. Over the course of the half-day tour, your small group of 10 or fewer discovers the hidden history flowing through Amsterdam’s canals as you walk its cobblestone streets. With your knowledgeable guide, look beyond the typical tourist hotspots and experience Amsterdam's liberal culture first-hand. Delve into a world where legal cannabis and prostitution exist next door to schools and churches, and learn from how Amsterdam's tolerant culture has evolved to encompass both sides of the spectrum. Pop into a coffee shop or two as you stroll past the Red Light District's erotic shops and theaters and get insider's tips on the best nightlife in the city. Ponder Amsterdam's checkered history as you learn about it origins as a dam on the Amstel River and wander by its medieval gate, before ending the tour back at the Beursplein around 5pm.
