EscortGuide: escort ladies and gentlemen

EscortGuide — experience report and test

Platform description

EscortGuide (part of the “City of Love” network) is a globally active escort directory with the claim to be the global point of contact for escort seekers — especially business travelers. The platform went online in the mid-2010s (the operator is a company based in the Netherlands) and has since developed into one of the largest international escort directories. More than 28,500 escorts are currently presented in 92 countries and 943 cities. As a result, EscortGuide significantly exceeds many local directories in terms of coverage and selection.

At a glance:

EscortGuide is a user-friendly platform that enables users to find escort ladies and gentlemen worldwide. With an extensive list of profile data and reviews, customers can quickly select the right escort according to their preferences. The platform ensures secure and anonymous communication to protect user privacy.

EscortGuide itself does not provide escorts directly, but acts as an advertising platform. Escorts, agencies and clubs can create their own profiles where they present themselves and their services. Users can search these profiles free of charge and contact the escorts directly — EscortGuide is explicit not Contracting partner for bookings (contact and all arrangements take place directly between escort and customer). This distinguishes EscortGuide from booking agencies: No bookings are processed via the website, it serves purely as a directory and advertising platform.

Unlike many national escort portals, EscortGuide is strongly internationally oriented. The makers advertise themselves as a “#1 guide for business travelers,” which underlines their specialization in mobile, frequent-traveling customers. At the same time, it is emphasized that EscortGuide is a “multi-award-winning escort directory” — although no specific awards are mentioned, this signals a certain industry reputation. Compared to other directories (such as Skokka or EscortDirectory), EscortGuide scores particularly well with its immense global coverage and the integration of an entire network of ads (“part of the largest network” according to its own statement).

Target group & offer

Target group: The platform is aimed at adults looking for escort services — from newbies to experienced frequent travelers. The focus is particularly on business travelers and international customers who want to quickly find what they are looking for in foreign cities. But local users can also use EscortGuide to find a wide selection of escorts in their area. Thanks to the variety of offers, EscortGuide appeals to both luxury seekers (e.g. through many high-end escorts and international VIP models) as well as price-conscious customers — the latter also find cheaper options, especially in regions with a wide range of offers or with independent escorts.

Range of escort types: A wide variety of escort types are represented on EscortGuide, including women, men, transgender and transsexual escorts as well as, in some cases, couples. The directory is not limited to a gender group, but offers filter options according to the desired type of escort. For example, the seeker can search specifically for a male escort or a trans escort, depending on their preferences. However, the majority of ads feature female escorts, which corresponds to the market share. There are also independent escorts (self-employed) as well as agency escorts and even listings from escort clubs or brothels (a total of over 5,000 agencies/clubs listed). This diversity makes it possible to have a suitable offer for virtually every wish and requirement.

Range of services: The specific services depend on the respective escort and are specified in the profile. Typical services include escort services to dinners or events, classic erotic services, but also special preferences (e.g. BDSM, role playing, couples service) depending on the escort. Many escorts offer outcalls (the escort comes to the customer, for example to the hotel) and sometimes also incalls (meetings in the escort's apartment/location). It is interesting that you can find both real meetings and occasional virtual services on EscortGuide: Some escorts point out, for example, that they offer video chats, telephone sex or online offers — a trend that has been established particularly since 2020. However, the focus is clearly on real escort service. The profiles also provide information about additional services (such as massage, dominant appearance, travel support for several days, etc.), so that customers can search very specifically for escorts with specific services.

International usage & city list

A big advantage of EscortGuide is its international coverage. While previous experience reports focused on specific metropolises, here we will look at other important cities in Europe:

Amsterdam:

As one of the most visited cities in Europe and known for liberal views on eroticism, Amsterdam is featured prominently on EscortGuide. There are over 530 escorts listed in the Netherlands, the majority of them in Amsterdam. The offerings in Amsterdam range from student companions to experienced high-class escorts to fetish-specialists. EscortGuide is very useful for travelers here: Instead of laboriously searching in the Red Light District or browsing local websites in Dutch, you can look through the profiles in English, set filters (e.g. by language “English spoken”) and contact a suitable escort directly. Escort agencies in Amsterdam also advertise here and offer full-service arrangements for tourists.

Prague:

The Czech capital also has a considerable range of escorts on the platform, although smaller than Amsterdam. In the Czech Republic, EscortGuide lists around 90 escorts, mainly in Prague. This is helpful for visitors, as you can find reputable escorts at a glance instead of working your way through unknown classified ads. Prague in particular, as a popular destination for bachelor parties and conferences, attracts international customers — EscortGuide makes it possible to search specifically for a Prague companion even before the trip. The profiles usually name languages (many Prague escorts speak English, some speak German) and prices in euros or kroner, which makes planning easier.

Milan:

A total of around 143 escorts are listed in Italy, many of them in Milan as a business and fashion metropolis. Anyone who is in Milan on business can use EscortGuide, for example, to look for a bilingual, elegant companion. The offer in Milan includes various categories, from high-priced model escorts to independent escort ladies. Thanks to EscortGuide, you can also discover the local offerings here without knowledge of Italian — the platform bundles the information in English (sometimes also in German or in multiple languages, depending on what the advertisers say).

More cities:

In addition to the above, almost all major European cities are represented on EscortGuide — from London (UK) to Paris (FR), Madrid (ES) to Berlin (DE). Coverage is also enormous outside Europe (e.g. many entries in North America, Asia and the Middle East). Especially if you travel a lot, EscortGuide saves you from searching for local escort websites. For travelers, the platform is therefore a practical travel guide in the erotic sector, which provides initial orientation in numerous cities. The usefulness for travelers is also shown by the fact that touring escorts are often listed — such as international models who visit various major cities (these are highlighted in a separate “International VIP Escorts” section). Overall, the following applies: EscortGuide lists suitable escorts for almost every major city in the world, which makes the platform uniquely comprehensive.

Cost structure

Use for customers: EscortGuide is completely free of charge for searching users. Neither registration (registration is not necessary for customers at all) nor viewing profiles costs anything. There is no paywall or credit system for unlocking contact details or the like — contact details are freely available and the contact is then made outside the platform (by telephone, email or messenger service, depending on the information in the profile).

Costs for escorts/advertisers: The financing is provided by the paying advertisers. Escort profiles can be created free of charge in the basic version — “free profile page, online in a few minutes, no credit card required” is actively advertised. This freemium model lowers the barrier to entry for escorts, which explains why there are so many profiles worldwide. EscortGuide generates revenue through optional premium options and promotional upgrades. For example, escorts or agencies can book prominent advertising spaces for a fee: on the homepage, some VIP escorts or agencies are presented in a slider, which is obviously subject to a fee. Such premium ads promise “international visibility” and access to “thousands of visitors per month.” There are probably also prioritized placements in search results or highlights (such as colored frames, “Top Escort” label) for a fee.

EscortGuide does not have a credit system in the narrower sense (where you have to buy credits to send messages, for example) — payment is more traditional via time or package bookings for advertising. The exact prices are not publicly available on the site itself (they are likely to be shown in the advertiser area). However, since EscortGuide uses an official payment portal (Worldline), it can be assumed that payments for upgrades online via credit card be settled. Positive to mention: According to the terms and conditions, there is even a 14-day money back guarantee for purchased advertising services — a rather unusual feature in this area that underlines the seriousness.

Conclusion costs: There is no cost to users. Escorts can advertise for free, but are given opportunities to buy more visibility for a fee. This model (Free Basic + Paid Premium) is standard in the industry and comparable with, for example, EscortDirectory. Overall, the cost structure is transparent and fair: no hidden fees for customers and voluntary advertising costs for providers.

Realistic usage simulation

To make the use of EscortGuide more tangible, a fictitious example of a traveler on the platform:

scenario: Max, 38, is a frequent business traveler. He is in Amsterdam for two days and is considering booking an escort for dinner in the evening. Max has little experience with such websites so far — he doesn't know local escort agencies in the Netherlands, nor does he speak Dutch. That's why he's trying out EscortGuide.

1. Accessing the page: Max goes to the EscortGuide website (no login required). The site greets him in English and he immediately sees a search field with country selection.
2. Select country and city: Max selects “Netherlands (530)” from the drop-down. A “City” field then appears, where he can set “Amsterdam” (the platform lists all major cities in the Netherlands, e.g. Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, etc.). He clicks on “Search” — now all escorts in Amsterdam are displayed.
3. Filter results: Max sees dozens of entries on the results page. To get to his goal faster, he uses the filter functions. For example, it sets the following filters: gender = female, age 20-35, language = English. In addition, he can use filters such as service type (such as “dinner date” or “BDSM”, etc.), hair color, body characteristics, nationality or price level, depending on what the site offers. In this example, he is interested in an English-speaking companion around 25 years of age, so the filters mentioned above are sufficient for him.
4. View profiles: The list is being updated and now shows maybe 20 profiles that meet his criteria. Max scrolls through the results. Each entry shows a profile picture, a short title (e.g. “Sofia — Elegant Dutch Escort”) and some symbols or keywords (such as age, district, a flag for nationality or language). He clicks on the profile of “Sofia.”
5. Profile view: Max now sees Sofia's detail page. There he will find a gallery with photos, a detailed description (in English) and a list of key data: age, size, origin, languages, services that Sofia offers, fees/fees (e.g. “1h — 300€” etc.) and contact information. In Sofia's case, a WhatsApp number is provided and the note that you should ideally book a day in advance. It also says that it is verified (in our fictitious case, we assume that EscortGuide marks verified profiles with a badge — if available). Max doesn't see any customer reviews on the site — EscortGuide does not have a public comment or rating column, unlike what you know from portals such as TripAdvisor.
6. Contact: Max decides to contact Sofia. Since a WhatsApp number is provided, he writes her a message via his smartphone. In the message, he introduces himself, gives the date and time for the desired meeting and politely asks if it is available. Alternatively, he could have called — many escorts give telephone numbers — but Max feels more comfortable via chat at first.
7. Answer & agreement: Sofia answers within half an hour. She thanks for the request and confirms that she is free the next evening. The two clarify the details (meeting point, duration, fee) via WhatsApp. EscortGuide itself is not involved in this communication; there is also no booking software in the background. Max also asks about any special requests (he would like an elegant outfit — Sofia confirms that she will come dressed appropriately). After everything has been clarified, they make a binding agreement.
8. Completion of transactions: Max doesn't need any further action on EscortGuide — he has found his companion. He is now relying on the personal agreement with Sofia. To be on the safe side, he saves the EscortGuide profile as a bookmark in case he wants to check details again later (e.g. her phone number or to be able to contact a backup if Sofia would cancel).
9. meetings: The next evening, Max meets Sofia in the hotel restaurant as agreed. (The other details of the meeting are private and no longer part of platform use.)

Summary of the process: This example shows that EscortGuide is primarily used to provide information. Max was able to find a suitable escort from a large selection in a short time, thanks to the filters and detailed profiles. The actual booking (communication and payment) took place outside the platform directly between Max and Sofia. For Max as a user, the site was very helpful in getting a quick overview of available escorts in Amsterdam and making a choice without language barriers. EscortGuide makes the entire process significantly easier, especially for a non-local person.

Search & filter functions

The search and filter options on EscortGuide are extensive and contribute significantly to usability. From the start page, you can narrow down your search by selecting the country and city — this will navigate through the wide range of global offerings. Once you have chosen a city, you usually get a list of all available escorts there, which you can then filter further.

Filter options in detail:

Users report that the following filters are available (details may vary slightly depending on the region):

• Location: Narrowing down by city and often even district. In large cities, for example, you can filter by district or see in your profile where the escort is based.
• Gender/Category: Selection between female, male, trans escorts, etc., as well as partly agency vs. independent. For example, you can display all transgender escorts in London.
• Age: Setting an age range (e.g. 18—25, 25—35, etc.) to only see escorts in a specific age segment
• appearance: Filters for hair color, figure, cup size, etc. are common for some directories — whether EscortGuide offers all of these depends on the level of profiling. Many profiles have information about height, weight, dimensions; in the search, you can at least choose based on profile photos and descriptions. There may also be a filter for certain attributes (e.g. “large bust”), but we were unable to verify this due to the lack of an open search mask.
• Nationality/Ethnicity: International customers in particular like to use the option of filtering by nationality (e.g. “Spanish escorts in Prague”, etc.). EscortGuide allows advertisers to indicate their origin, making such searches easier. The same applies to language skills — for example, you can show all escorts who speak German in a given city, which is very valuable for travelers without local language skills.
• Services: A central filter is the search for services offered. Escorts typically mark in their profiles which services they offer (from “girlfriend experience” to “anal” to “dominatrix” or fetishes). Customers can filter accordingly, for example if they are specifically looking for BDSM Domini or someone who serves couples, etc. This function separates EscortGuide from simpler advertising portals — here you can filter very specifically by interests.
• price: Many users pay attention to the budget. If the escorts indicate their rates in their profile, you can often sort or filter by price level (e.g. “€€ = medium budget”). It is not certain whether EscortGuide has a dedicated price filter, but at least the price information is transparent in the profile and you can sort the listings by price. Due to the large selection, you can usually find a range from cheap to premium in every city.

Ease of use:

The platform appears tidy and relatively intuitive. The search mask is clearly structured (first country, then city, then results with filters). It is possible to set several filters at the same time, which makes the search very efficient. For example, in a city, you can search by age at the same time and Filter the service to get exactly the results you want. The fact that no registration is required also increases usability — you can get started right away without hurdles.

The profiles themselves are clearly laid out: usually introductory descriptive text, then tables or bullet points with attributes, and often a portfolio of photos. Some profiles also link to external escort websites or social media, which can be helpful but takes the user away from EscortGuide. Nevertheless, this is deliberately allowed, as EscortGuide advertises to bring traffic directly to the escorts' websites.

A minor disadvantage in the user interface could be that the page is heavily in English. Although you can probably display the interface in different languages, many profile texts are in English. This is acceptable for most users, but absolute foreign language grouches could stick to purely German-language portals. Nonetheless: Overall, EscortGuide is very user-friendly — the logic and structure are similar to a travel website, which fits the concept well (country → city → selection → details).

Profile quality & reviews

Profile content: The quality of the ads on EscortGuide is mostly high — each profile provides plenty of information. Photos are usually available in good resolution (usually several images per escort). In addition, there are details such as age, height, weight, measurements, hair/eye color, nationality, languages, call times, willingness to travel, etc. Many escorts add a personal description, sometimes with information about hobbies or character, in order to convey an impression beyond the mere service.

Trustworthiness: Since the profiles are created by the escorts themselves, the reliability of the information naturally varies. EscortGuide itself only checks the authenticity of the profiles to a limited extent — although there is a report button, there is no mandatory verification of each profile. However, some advertisers are verified: You can tell by a small badge on the profile.

Customer reviews: There is no internal rating system. Unlike hotel portals, for example, there are no star ratings or customer comments directly below the escort profiles on EscortGuide.

Profile quality conclusion: Overall, the ads are impressive due to their wealth of detail and professionalism.
