I'm moving country in a couple of months and Amsterdam is my top choice but I am concerned that it may be hard for me to support myself as an escort over there because it's so largely known for it's red light district, I'm not sure ?150 an hour would go down well there when girls are charging so little - I know it's a different gfe service but I'm still not convinced - is there anyone who has ever lived or toured in Amsterdam to enlighten me?

I stayed there for a week and rented one of those canal boats to live on and use for incalls. It was great fun and business was pretty good. From what I understand, those red light booth girls charge 30 or 40 euros for a very quick, quicky and the client gets to arrive and depart from the booth with dozens of tourists gawking at him which seems far removed from a discreet GFE so hopefully won't impact on your business.

What I heard basically is that there is a market for upscale escorts and there are also beautiful private apartments that girls share to work from which have nothing to do with the red-light district.
There are always clients who look for the more intimate gfe which you can't buy in the Redlight.
Geneva is known for its cheap Paquis where girls charge 50CHF an hour but the main agencies charge 1000 for 2 hour minimum (and the girls are seriously no top models).
But to be honest, I would also stay away from Amsterdam because I believe even if you can make a lot of money, there are places where you can make far more, depends on what you expect.

I was born and raised in Amsterdam, and started working the streets when I was 14..
This is in the 90's though, before mobile phone's, internet etc.., so I wouldn't have a clue how things are these
days (haven't lived there for 20 years), but they've got AW and plenty of other websites too, so I suppose it's
pretty similar to everywhere else?
I don't have to be perfect, but I'm perfect at being me!

There for sure is a market, it's more agency based however i must admit i have no idea where you advertise over there, backpage maybe, backpage seems universal, there would be no harm in putting yourself on adultwork but when i gave the area a look there wasn't many girls (perhaps a good thing if british clients comes over to stay). I think ?150 wouldn't go down perfectly well there however there will always be folk who will. It will be a lot quiter i rekon however, it's up to you of course. You can get reasonably priced accomodation over there, canal boats are quaint & clients would be fine visiting you there i'm sure. Agencies seem to be charging ?130 over there. I guess you could consider your at a holiday location with a lot less stigma within the job, perhaps you could feel comfortable reducing to ?20 on those grounds however that's your choice alone of course.

Thanks for your replies everyone, very helpful! I think I'll try my luck touring there first to dip my toes in the water before I dive straight in :)

I live in the Netherlands and work with an high class agency, there is definitely a market if you want to work with an agency. To work independent is for sure more difficult, there is many concurention and the prices they ask are low, to have an impression you can take a look at kinkyDOTnl good luck and feel free to sent me a pm! xo

I lived and work in Amstetdam for 8 years and just few months ago moved to England.
If you want to do this in Holland my advise is to do not work in Amsterdam!
You can advertise on kinky.nl and sexjobs and try to work in citys like Utrecht , Amstelveen , Harlem and use the Van der valk hotels to receive your clients. In this places you can easy ask 100/30min , 150/1h. In amsterdam you need to lower the rate as they are to many girls. If you need more info feel free to ask me
