01 Rivierenbuurt · Amsterdam
Two therapists, sent to wherever the pair of you are staying in Rivierenbuurt.
South of the Amstelkanaal the streets are named after rivers and the flats were built with front rooms worth having. Two therapists come down from De Pijp, which is about as short a trip as this city offers.
02 Staying in Rivierenbuurt
A couples massage in Rivierenbuurt is a quieter proposition than the same booking two bridges north. This is the neighbourhood that begins where De Pijp stops, on the far side of the Amstelkanaal, and it was designed rather than grown. The streets carry the names of rivers, they curve where a straight line would have been easier, and the blocks that line them were put up in the nineteen twenties and thirties in sculpted brick, with rounded corners, deep doorways and small balconies. A tall block stands at the centre of the main square like a full stop. Along the eastern edge the Amstel runs past a long strip of park, and at the southern end the business towers of the Zuidas are close enough to walk to. It is residential to its bones. Couples end up here for two reasons: a well priced flat with actual rooms in it, or a work trip to the towers with a partner who came along. Either way the evening is spent indoors, and the district gives you a genuinely peaceful one.
The flats are the reason to be pleased. A typical Plan Zuid apartment has a front room across the street side with a bay window or a balcony door, parquet underfoot, a hallway with real width, and a kitchen at the back that was never meant for entertaining. That front room is close to ideal for a pair of therapists: move a low table and there is space for two surfaces with a walkway between them. Stairwells are communal, generously proportioned by Amsterdam standards, and finished in tile and brick, and lifts appear only in the handful of later blocks. Walls are solid and the floors between apartments are thick, so sound carries far less than it does in the nineteenth century belt further north. The streets themselves go quiet early. Parking is easier here than anywhere else in the southern half of the city, which is a small thing that occasionally takes a few minutes off the arrival. Bells are numbered rather than named in most blocks, which makes an address unusually easy to find.
Ten of the forty five therapists live in De Pijp, immediately north across the canal, so the pair sent down to you are frequently five minutes away. Two therapists at once, a therapist each, is EUR 360 an hour and is what most couples here ask for. The wide front rooms make it straightforward, and neither of you has to compromise on pressure or technique because each therapist works only to the person in front of her. Couples in the neighbourhood for a work trip often book the middle of the evening and keep it to a single hour; couples here on holiday lean towards ninety minutes at EUR 540 or two hours at EUR 720. Nuru wants a proper shower, which the renovated flats have and the untouched ones do not, so mention which yours is. Tantra suits the quiet of these streets. Four hand massage, both of them working on one of you, is the same EUR 360 an hour and makes an easy present mid trip.
Write with the street, the number, the floor and the hour, and say whether you want a therapist each or a single therapist taking turns. The answer comes back in about ten minutes carrying two names and the total figure. Rivierenbuurt sits inside the area we cover as standard, so expect twenty to thirty minutes between your confirmation and the doorbell, and often less at night. Payment is handled once, inside the flat, in cash in any major currency, by card or in crypto, and no deposit is ever taken. A single therapist is EUR 180 an hour, a pair is EUR 360, three hours with a pair is EUR 1,080, and an eight hour overnight with one therapist is EUR 1,250. Everything is outcall to your own address, available at any hour of the day or night, for adults of twenty one and over.
03 Within reach
