Great walking tour

4.00We had a really lovely tour and thoroughly enjoyed learning from the very knowledgeable Susan! Slight criticism in that we thought it should of been called a walking tour with food, rather than a food walking tour but still found it fantástic and enjoyed the experience
Disappointing food tour

2.00We were booked on this food tour on a Monday morning and nothing was open! We thought it was a food tour so we didn’t eat breakfast. We were starving by the time we did actually try one food. This tour cost 300 for 4 people and our guide spent 30 on food. They should have marketed this tour as a walking tour and NOT a food tour. Very disappointed. I think we should get a credit for half the money. It was only a two hour tour! Guide tried his best but still very disappointed!
Perfect introduction to Rotterdam

5.00Susan was very friendly and knowledgeable about the city. We had a fabulous tour today. She was very nice about not pushing us too fast. I like to take pictures along a tour and she let me do so with no problem. Enjoyed the food tasting, but some of the portions were quite large.
Excellent intro to Rotterdam and Dutch food

5.00Susan was an excellent tour guide, providing history and examples of current and past culture. We had the opportunity to see the unique architecture that Rotterdam is known for. We had samples of Dutch food that we enjoyed thoroughly.
