Good information, worth the price The tour was great. Our tour guide Martha answered all our questions, which makes the tour so much more interesting. Knowing the history behind the red light district is important in understanding the decisions to legalize prostitution. We didn’t see anyone in the world famous windows, but we were fine with that.
