Good fun whilst keeping your clothes on!

Stu_N, Sept 2023

We had a great experience at the museum. The rooms were well themed and the narrator was very funny. There were lots of facts and information on the walls between sections and plenty of photo opportunities. The staff were super friendly and very accomodating. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants a fun yet informative look into the (sometimes harrowing) lives of sex workers.

Great

Luci_R, Sept 2023

Was very interesting, was a lot of people in such a small space so was very hot but other than that was great to see. Would recommend

a disappointment!

AnitaL_D, Sept 2023

None. Stupid exhibit. a waste of money. Dirty sidewalks outside of museum. employees were not knowledgeable, only interested in selling souvenirs.

Very worthwhile

Jake_R, Aug 2023

Highly recommend this tour to all who are visiting Amsterdam. Very informative about the history of the trade and its prevalence in the area, and challenges pre conceived ideas.

Red Light Secrets

Joanne_G, July 2023

Very interesting, small museum and will only take about an hour of your time, but worth the hour! The audio guide is a must very interesting stories.

A must to see before strolling Red Light District

Tatyana_B, May 2023

Very educative and informative museum! You get an excellent perspective and understanding on this unique profession. Visited museum right before our walking tour in Red Light District, and it was the best decision! It’s a must to see before exploring this area. Highly and strongly recommend!!!

Was too short.

Stacey_G, May 2023

It was average. Short trip thru the museum, not was good as I was hoping. I thought there would be more stories from the girls who work there. But it had some info.

Less than we expected

Nancy_F, Apr 2023

Not what I expected. It's totally self-guided with an ear piece. No one is there but it was crowded inside a tiny structure. Not what any of us expected. Just like a space that was set up specifically for this tour. Took us all of 20 mins. Would not recommend.

Smelly feat and cheesy...

Rachel_O, Apr 2023

Smelly feat and cheesy dicks in the words of a prostitute Actual visit was very poor and not what I expected

So worth it!

Jody_W, Mar 2023

What a great time and experience. So much fun, love that we got to take pictures and try out the stuff. It was not a stuffy atmosphere like some of the other museums.

Escort

Alberto_M, Feb 2023

I enjoyed learning from this tour what the career was and is for an escort. How they operate and how their lives are.

Great service

Dan_J, Dec 2022

I did not manage to attend this event, however the customer service were 5* and I have rebooked for the future.

Prostitution museum

Nerys_W, Dec 2022

Great hour in museum easy to find and very informative also had some fun taking silly pics with friends

Not a usual museum

Evelina_P, Nov 2022

Highly recommend! Strong and mixed fillings experience. Definitely should be in your visit list in Amsterdam.

Couldn’t find

Andrea_K, Oct 2022

Couldn’t find I want my money back no one knows where you are located. Very crowded and no one can give you directions

Great tour

Donald_Y, Aug 2022

My guide was prompt and very informative even on tough questions. Need to change pickup location to just Victoria Hotel

Tourist trap

Heather_H, Aug 2022

There wasn't really anything memorable. It took about 15 min to go thru the entire museum. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but seeing a bedroom, run and sex toys was just boring.would have liked to hear stories from the ladies.

Informative

Orissa_A, July 2022

Is a cute spot. Very hot, small, lots of walking. Was disappointed because they said it accessible but in fact it wasn’t. Provided a lot of information.

Amazing

Emma_B, July 2022

It was amazing very helpful staff it was very interesting to know the back ground of the city the canals are just beautiful

Sex Museum Tour

Walter_J, July 2022

Although some interesting things were mentioned, it is not a tour that I would recommend. It brings to focus how crude this type of behave can be.
