Secretos de la Luz Roja : Museo de la Prostitución Amsterdam

The museum has a very dynamic and interactive tour, with audio guide points where a former sex worker tells you how the industry works with stories and anecdotes. It is very well balanced, showing examples of daily life without being vulgar. Additionally, the guy who assisted us was super friendly, speaking to us in our language (Spanish) and knew several more!! It was also highly recommended by our guide on a tour of Amsterdam, and for good reason; it is the one that is most worth visiting in the Red Light District to understand its culture and operation. We bought tickets in advance, but you can enter at the same moment by buying tickets there; there is no line.

Really interesting museum in the Red Light District! You will learn a lot about the history of the area and the prostitution industry. Really enjoyed this museum which took us an hour to walk around.

It was a very informative experience which I would highly recommend!

The only place you can take photos at the red light district. Walk through on your own. I’d do it again

It was a worthwhile museum, definitely. I was sort of looking for more historical references like about courtesans and the like, however, this museum does a great service to explain the present-day social implications of prostitution. The only thing I did not like and wish they would do away with is that ridiculous photo policy. they don't let you enter without taking some cheesy photo that you have the option to buy in the end. You cannot preemptively refuse, knowing you will not purchase this photo. I get what the owners are doing trying to drive merchandise, but this feels forceful and ironically like it removes my rights as a person to have my photo taken.

Eye opening and well worth doing.

This was such an informative experience getting to learning about the Red Light District. We really enjoyed learning about the history, and I would highly recommend to anyone!! It was so much fun!

I love this experience; it was really easy to buy tickets at the door. We paid, went in, then got out audio that we were able to scan on tabs as we went on to find out more information. I loved the part where you got to see possessions that customers left behind. The prostitutes who have died, great facts and interesting information. It wasn't really crowded enough space to stay in an area for a good amount of time before someone else came along! 100% enjoyed this

What a fantastic educational curation of the history of prostitution. We were unsure at first whether to go in, but immediately knew we’d made the right decision when we entered. Full of memorabilia, information and very thorough in the information given. We loved the opportunity to sit in the window, have photos taken which are excellently priced, and the fact that the building is a historic brothel is the perfect location. Super friendly staff and we enjoyed every minute. Would highly recommend to all visitors of Amsterdam!

Absolutely fascinating! It is really eye opening and well worth a visit. The audio guides were brilliant with no issues and the stories you hear throughout the tour will make you laugh, gasp in shock and almost cry.
