Reviews De Wallen
“I would recommend it 100%. Getting around was easy, individuals were willing to help, and transportation was efficient. Not speaking the language was not difficult as everyone understands English. Looking forward to my next visit, to explore more.”
“Really loved it, learned a lot about prostitution in The Netherlands, the confessions board was funny (and disturbing lol) and it was very sobering learning about all the prostitutes that are murdered.”
