Begin your smartphone-guided journey in the bustling Dam Square, learning how the city got its name from a simple dam on the Amstel River and how this place witnessed the glorious moments of Dutch history. As you explore the Red Light District, hear the fascinating stories of erstwhile sailors, sex workers, merchants, and modern curious visitors. Unveil the intriguing tale of the district's transformation from a working-class neighborhood to the ground zero of adult entertainment.

Discover the Hidden Gems & Stories

Marvel at the oldest building in Amsterdam, the illustrious Oude Kerk. On its steps, find the statue of ‘Belle’ – a reminder to respect sex workers all over the world. Your virtual guide will then lead you to the ‘secret’ chapel of Ons' Lieve Heer op Solder, tucked away in a 17th-century canal house. The tour concludes at Nieuwmarkt, where you'll find the Waag, once a gate in the city's medieval walls, now a famed guild-house.
