Every tour is a one-of-a-kind adventure, with stops crafted to match the group's interests and scheduling. Duration can vary, adjusting to the pace and tempo that suits the group best.
Your private Amsterdam food tour includes around 10 premium tastings at 5+ beloved local stops — think warm stroopwafels from a 200-year-old bakery, artisanal Gouda with wine, Surinamese or Indonesian street snacks, Dutch fries, herring (before 16:00), chocolates, and a toast with jenever or European wines. But remember: every tour is different — your guide will design the route, stops, and timing around your tastes, the season, and the day’s best flavors.
Sample Menu (10+ Tastings, Seasonal & Flexible) Traditional Gouda with wine – Aged Dutch farmer’s cheese paired with wine inside a 17th-century canal house cellar. Freshly made stroopwafel – A warm, traditional caramel waffle from a 200-year-old Dutch bakery, sometimes served with cinnamon liqueur. Dutch “sashimi” – Typical Dutch herring with onions and pickles from a local fishmonger (available before 16:00). Indonesian soup (soto ayam) – A colonial-era favorite, still a local tradition in Amsterdam’s food culture. Surinamese bara with chicken – A spiced, deep-fried bread with chicken filling; a typical Amsterdam street food you won’t find elsewhere. Dutch fries – Double-fried and golden, a traditional Dutch snack that might just be the best in the world (ask the Belgians…) — served with mayonnaise or satay sauce. Traditional jenever – The Dutch spirit we’ve been drinking for over 400 years, poured the old-fashioned way in a brown café. Bitterballen with local pilsner – Crispy Dutch beef croquettes paired with an Amsterdam-brewed beer in a traditional brown pub. Local apple pie – A Jordaan specialty, where cafés still compete for the title of “best Dutch apple pie in Amsterdam.” Dutch chocolate or pralines – Celebrating Amsterdam’s role as the world’s largest cocoa port. Surprise snack – Every guide adds a seasonal or typical Dutch favorite along the way. Important: This is a sample menu. Every private tour is unique and depends on season, timing, and your guide’s chosen route. Some tastings (such as herring) are only possible before 16:00. Dietary requests are welcome, but availability may vary — ask your guide, who will do their best to accommodate.

Maria was knowledgeable, fun and organized. We learned more about Amsterdam than we thought we could. Her history and traditions knowledge was superb. She was a pleasure to be with and the tastings were wonderful! We highly recommend this tour with this guide!

We went on the Amsterdam private tasting tour the afternoon we arrived. Otto, our wonderful guide, picked us up and led us on three hours of sights, tastes, and history. The tour was everything we hoped it would be: light walking, tasty treats, and fun conversation. We would recommend this tour to everyone!

Our tour guide, Maria, was absolutely wonderful! She not only showed us amazing local spots that we never would have found on our own, but also shared fascinating historical facts that brought Amsterdam’s history and culture to life. We’d especially like to call out the small details of the city that you could easily pass by if they weren’t mentioned by someone with great awareness of the city. Maria’s knowledge, warmth, and passion made the entire experience unforgettable. She truly gave the Netherlands a great name, and we left with a much deeper appreciation for the city and its people. Highly recommend booking a tour with her!

The group of 7 in my 8-person party was unable to come, so I ended up spending the afternoon with just Kees - we had a very nice time! He is very informative and made everything so easy and simple. All the food was amazing. I did the 1pm tour and definitely didn’t have room for dinner after.

The tour had a good mix of walking around and stopping for some history. All the stops had food (which is provided) except for the liquor store. Definitely DONT eat breakfast!
