Michel was a great guide to show us some highlights of Amsterdam and introduce us to a few great local food specialties. He combined a bit of history with humor and interesting points; together this was an engaging delivery. The foods were authentic, there was a mix of sit-down and stand-and-eat locations, and the quantity of food was just right. The walking was easy and we stayed together well.

Eileen is a fantastic guide, she knows the city well and was willing to share lots of recommendations! Highlight was definitely the apple pie, but special shout out to the fried cod because I am still thinking about it. Great way to see the city, taste some great food, and enjoy the niche districts of Amsterdam!

Wow, what a great tour with a fantastic guide, DJ. This tour is a must for anyone visiting Amsterdam and enjoys learning about the local culture through food. During our 2.5 hours we walked through the Jordaan District and learned about the history of the area and it's merchants. It is obvious DJ is very knowledgeable and proud of his city. We enjoyed the best apple pie we've ever eaten from a place that has been in business since the 1600's. We visited a cheese shop and sampled 3 distinct types of cheese, a butcher in business since the 1890's, we had traditional herring as well as Genever (a old time fisherman's gin). A few more stops and samples kept us full and happy for the rest of the day. If you can request a tour with DJ do it. You won't be disappointed. Your new friends from Florida, Frank, Sharon and Sydney

This was a gear tour. We liked the mix of Amsterdam culture and history that we got along with the good food. This was a great way to people to check off some Dutch food staples while learning more about the city. Our guide Renae was super friendly and knowledgeable. It was kinda pricey but I think worth it!

Go ahead and try the herring!
Lisa_F
, May 2019
We loved our tour guide, Ruby, and thoroughly enjoyed all the foods that were offered to us on this tour! Go hungry and have an open mind. You will try the herring, offered with some onions and pickles & tulip vodka. Start off with an apple cake with whipped cream, then onto another cafe for cheese and sausage, stop at another place for some chicken satay; another place for herring and tulip vodka and then another place gin (Genever) and amsterdam pancakes and yet another place for a stroopwafel. Everything had it's own dutch name, but I really can't pronounce or spell any of them other than the stroopwafel! Also, learned some other history of the this tour as we strolled along the streets in the Jordaan district.
