Activity itinerary

St. Nicholas Basilica
  • 15m
Welcome to the beginning of our tour of Amsterdam's Red Light District. We're starting at Prins Hendrik Kade, right next to the magnificent Saint Nicholas Basilica, just across from Central Station. In this initial part of the tour, we'll cover the general introductions, delve into the fascinating origins of the area, and set the stage for what lies ahead. If you have any special requests or topics you'd like to explore further, feel free to discuss them with me as we proceed.
Zeedijk
  • 10m
Stroll through Zeedijk, Amsterdam’s historic street that has transformed from its turbulent past. Discover vibrant culture, eclectic shops, and charming cafes. This lively area, once marred by a 70s epidemic, now stands as a testament to the city’s resilience and revitalisation. A must-visit for a true Amsterdam experience.
Fo Guang Shan He Hua Temple
  • 5m
Visit the He Hua Temple in Amsterdam, a stunning sanctuary of tranquility and beauty. Experience its intricate architecture and serene atmosphere, offering a unique cultural escape in the heart of the city. Perfect for those seeking peace and a glimpse into Buddhist traditions.
Nieuwmarkt
  • 10m
Experience the vibrant energy of Nieuwmarkt in Amsterdam, a lively square brimming with history and charm. Explore bustling markets, historic landmarks, and diverse cafes. A perfect blend of culture and activity, Nieuwmarkt offers an unforgettable taste of Amsterdam’s dynamic spirit.
Red Light District (De Wallen)
  • 30m
Walkthrough of the district at PrimeTime: As we arrive at the main canal, you'll notice the iconic windows that define Amsterdam’s Red Light District. Here, you'll see a unique aspect of Dutch society—legal prostitution, where sex workers operate independently, renting these windows to offer their services. Behind each window lies a storey of autonomy, business acumen, and the right to work with dignity. As we continue, you'll uncover the fascinating dynamics of this world-renowned area and the lives of those who shape it.
Oude Kerk
  • 10m
Welcome to the Oude Kerk, Amsterdam’s oldest church, dating back to 1306, a stunning Gothic structure that has witnessed centuries of history. This sacred site, once a spiritual centre for sailors and merchants, now stands in stark contrast to its surroundings. In recent years, many of the iconic windows that once filled this area have disappeared due to the municipality's efforts to downsize the Red Light District. As we explore, you'll see how the past and present intertwine in this remarkable part of the city.
Beurs van Berlage
  • 15m
Discover the Beurs van Berlage in Amsterdam, an architectural masterpiece and cultural hub. This historic former stock exchange now hosts events, exhibitions, and concerts. Immerse yourself in its rich history and stunning design, making it a must-visit landmark for art and culture enthusiasts.
