Episode 11: Crème de la crème

  • Summary

  • Now to your right you will see two very narrow streets - Trompettersteeg and Dollebegijnensteeg. The first one is the narrowest street in Amsterdam, it is so narrow, you might easily mistake for a bar entrance. However, this is where the most fine and beautiful Amsterdam prostitutes are hiding. The intimate atmosphere of the place allows ladies to negotiate easier with the potential clients avoiding touristy crowd of the main arteries. It is also a matter of status to be working here. So since the rooms here are very difficult to find, some girls work "rotating" - which means they would take up any opening that comes along - in case of someone's sickness or any other matter. So from day to day they might be working in different rooms. Mostly white women work here.

    If you are taking this tour during the day, then most of the windows will be closed in these two streets. Anyways, if you would like, you could take a short detour to have a look yourself. Just please make sure to come back to the same spot. The tour will continue on from here down the canal.
