I am looking forward to ....? (followed by a Gerund)? [duplicate]

gerunds parts-of-speech construction

It is indeed. In each case, you need an object, so you need a noun or noun phrase:

I am looking forward to the holidays.

So in order to make a verb serve you must use the gerund.

I am looking forward to taking some time off.
