Product Details

Located in the heart of the Red Light District, Red Light Secrets is the world's first museum dedicated to the culture of sex workers. Housed in a former authentic brothel, it retains its original structure, offering visitors a more immersive experience. After the museum visit, enjoy a 1‑hour Amsterdam canal cruise departing from the city centre pier, sailing along the UNESCO World Heritage‑listed canal network. The cruise boat features comfortable seating and a tranquil environment, with a professional guide providing commentary on landmarks along the route through a multilingual audio system, including iconic 17th‑century Golden Age canal houses, the Skinny Bridge, and the Westerkerk.

The in‑house experience breaks down stereotypes, presenting the history and current state of the industry with respect and objectivity: visitors can sit behind the red‑lit windows, explore a restored working room and an SM‑themed exhibition space; through the audio guide (featuring personal stories from workers like Inga), learn about the legal framework and social issues surrounding the legalisation of the sex industry in the Netherlands in 2000.

The "Confession Wall" encourages visitors to leave anonymous notes, and photography is allowed inside the museum (strictly prohibited elsewhere in the district), making it a unique space to gain a deeper understanding of Amsterdam's diverse culture.

Amsterdam's 100‑kilometre‑long canal belt is a UNESCO World Heritage site, consisting of the three main canals—Herengracht, Keizersgracht, and Prinsengracht—planned during the Golden Age (17th century), lined with ornate gabled houses, churches, and historic buildings.
