Drug dealers / Junkies: Beware of dealers
  • Tip Rating:
  • Although on the whole it is safe to walk in Amsterdam after dark on your own it is not really in some parts of Red Light District. There are dealers, street prostitutes & their pimps, muggers, wierdo's etc. Dealers try to sell you their wares in dodgy corners.
    Keep to the well lit areas those with red lights should be fine. Most clubs have their own private security.

    My advice is just pass by rather quickly look confident & do not do anything which suggests you may have cash - looking unhappy is one way to get unnoticed.

     Great tips and photos! Unfortunately, I didn't visit Amsterdam on my latest European trip. Thanks for visiting my new Maastricht and Roermond pages! If you like to shop, you will like Roermond. Cheers from NJ, Bill

     Great updates Jo! I especially like the cat house tip, that's a place I'd be sure to go :-) I should go back and visit Amsterdam properly, was there for only 4 hours.
