Cannabis Culture: From Tolerance to Tourism

Beyond the smoke and stereotypes lies a fascinating experiment in tolerance. This tour explores Amsterdam's coffeeshop culture - not to promote drug use, but to understand a uniquely Dutch approach to a global issue. Learn about the 'gedoogbeleid' (tolerance policy), meet the pioneers who fought for change, and explore how a radical 1970s idea became a billion-euro industry. From medical cannabis to tourism chaos, this is the real story behind the haze.
