TOUR "EROTIC AND HISTORICAL RED LIGHT LIGHT"

                                      ⭕⭕⭕

I decided on this fascinating place, full of myths, enigmatic and beautiful, and I present it as it deserves, with height, with class and not in a crude way as is customary, in a personalized tour, of high quality as are all my excursions and that complements my other traditional historical tour through the "Historic Center."

The tour of the RED LIGHT DISTRICT is a "box of surprises" that we will open in a unique architectural setting. I explain it without restrictions regarding topics , using clear and respectful language, and without abandoning the cultural focus of the tour, where I embrace the beautiful history of the neighborhood and the social life of the port of Amsterdam, where prostitution has been a staple from the Middle Ages to the present day.

In the 20th century, the arrival of heroin, a hard drug, left a deep mark on Dutch society.

Nuns, priests, rich and poor, children, sailors, German soldiers in World War II, the painter Rembrandt, Mozart, drug addicts, scientists, criminals, millions of tourists and among them girls offering pleasure have walked through the Red Light District: therefore we will also have history, art, science and the rich cultural life that emerged centuries ago in the Red Light District, with a vast support of photos and prints that will make our excursion even more entertaining and also with a good dose of humor.

More than 20 interviews I conducted with prostitutes allow me to tell you firsthand what happens from the moment the sex worker opens the door of her "brothel-showcase" to the client, how her service is agreed upon with her and the surprises that clients sometimes get!!! We will see how the way of offering sex has changed through the centuries in this same place. Added to this are coffeeshops, gay life, art, live sex shows, churches for the repentant, drugs, the forbidden, the permitted, cultural festivals and decriminalization of marijuana, its characters and inhabitants, etc. Everything takes place in a walk through iconic and historical places of the Red Light District in a unique setting in the world in my old city of Amsterdam.
