Amsterdam free and easy : Sandeman redlight district tour



We decided to join a tour because we feel awkard walking around the redlight district alone and we can understand more about the history and details.
This time round, my tour guide is spunky girl.
She is more interesting and cheerful. I like her much better than my previous guide.
She presented everything it a chirpy and factual way so there is no need to feel shy or awkward.
I did not take photos as no photography was allowed at the redlight district and this was also basic respect to the girls working there.
After the tour, everyone was given one drink at a little pub.


Amsterdam free and easy : Sandemans NewEurope Free Tour


Join this free walking tour.
Just make an online reservation
Whether you get a guide that you like, is a game of luck.
I did not really like mine as I find him arrogant, he sounded like a strict teacher bringing  students out on an excursion. However, he is not in the list of guides anymore.
The tour was interesting and covered a lot of places and I learned a lot about Amsterdam but I do feel a bit bored because my guide was not really interesting.
The tour is free but they do accept tips.
Give more if you think they are good.
If they are not, I think a very small token for their work.


SExy land 

A hook that was found on the houses. the use of it?
haha.. join the tour to find out.
Art..



The beautiful row of houses
NArrow and closely packed houses
Who did we see in chinatown?







The electric tram.
The main transport, unless you know how to cycle
15 minutes break during the tour.
The guide recommend us to eat this Amsterdam's fast food.
Just deposit the coin and can just open the drawer to take out your burger.


Beautiful Amsterdam



We saw a ladybird.

KLM flight to london via amsterdam








KLM is not very famous in Singapore . some photos on board for people who are interested to try out this airline. I took this airline as it was the cheapest from Singapore to London, with a stopover but not time consuming. The flight service and the food is not bad.
