    So I booked this tour to hopefully find a beer that I liked, and I did. The guide was super informative during the tour section and knew a bunch of hidden gems. Overall this was a pretty great tour for those who have never been to the city.

    This went above all expectations. We started with a tasting of five beers in a local bar with Walter, with snacks and the opportunity to learn about what we were drinking and more about the country. We then began our walking tour with Richard. With just two of us on this tour, we were able to have all our questions answered and learn about the city as we explored. Richard was a great host and is very knowledgeable, moving at our pace and connected very well with us. The walking was well worth it, and the stroopwafel and fries were the perfect ending to what was our best experience in the city. We will be recommending this to all of our friends and family who visit the city in the future!

    I can't say enough nice things about Richard and his operation that he runs. The tour was in depth yet approachable, and he gives you so much more than you would expect from the tour. I would definitely look to do some of his other tours when I am back in Amsterdam Well worth the money!

    An excellent tour. The food was plentiful and delicious. The variety was exceptional for a food tour. Richard was a terrific guide and shared much history of Amsterdam. He was very personable and brought our group together.

    What a great experience! The guide was very knowledgeable and very good at keeping us moving at a comfortable pace. The food was excellent and just the right amount. We got to see parts of Amsterdam that are rich with culture and history, and off the beaten path (it was really nice to see more authentic neighborhoods that aren’t touristy). I definitely recommend this tour, we had a great time!
