Get to know Amsterdam in one of the most enjoyable ways – through its cuisine. Discover a variety of flavours and explore the rich food culture of the Dutch capital. During the tour, you will sample a selection of delicious specialities which together make up a full meal. Along the way, you will enjoy not only traditional Dutch treats, but also tasty bites that reflect what Amsterdam is known for: a vibrant multicultural city.

But this experience is about more than just food. Between the tasting stops, delve into everyday life in Amsterdam and learn about the city’s urban development over the centuries. With its crooked canal houses and historic waterways, Amsterdam is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in Europe.

Stroll through the historic canal belt, part of Amsterdam’s UNESCO-listed Canal Ring, and soak up the charm of its narrow streets and lively cafés. Your guide will lead you on a relaxed journey starting at Dam Square, lined with the Royal Palace and Madame Tussauds Amsterdam, through the city’s past, bringing its history to life with engaging stories and insights. Along the way, you will pass some of the main highlights in the city centre and gain a comprehensive overview of Amsterdam. Hear about its trading history, distinctive architecture, the years of the Second World War, Anne Frank, and much more on this 2.5-hour cultural food tour.

Learn how the city’s golden age of trade helped art and creativity flourish in Amsterdam. Artists such as Rembrandt, whose works now hang in the Rijksmuseum, and Van Gogh, who has his own museum, the Van Gogh Museum, benefited greatly from the wealth generated by trade, even if not necessarily during their lifetimes. The famous Heineken brewery also grew during the city’s heyday. Today, the Heineken Experience has become an integral part of Amsterdam.

The tour is led by an experienced guide in German, English, Italian or French.
