Setting out with an Old Detective in Amsterdam
Picture yourself in the shoes of the old Amsterdam underworld by means of the stories and anecdotes told by a former police officer of police station Warmoesstraat. Experience the chillness of the spots where the most notorious murders took place and get to know the backgrounds of the deeds of Haring Arie, Frits van de Wereld and of course Klaas "the minister" Bruinsma.
The tour takes you past the Wallen (Red-light district) and through Chinatown. Along the way you will of course visit the former police station Warmoesstraat, you will hear about the murder on magere (skinny) Josje and you will see where the Chinese still gamble. You will walk over to the Zeedijk, one of the most notorious "drugs streets" in the seventies and eighties; What did really happen here?
Although your guide isn't active in this neighbourhood anymore, he does come here every day and still knows the names of most residents. The reception centre of junkies, the nuns in the Warmoesstraat, the queens in the Cockring. In short: Amsterdam like you have never seen it before!
After the tour, we will spend some time and visit a typical Amsterdam pub in the Wallen (Red-light district) where you can go over the day with one another and with your guide over a drink.
