This Food Tour is all about enjoying a feast of Dutch food, Amsterdam anecdotes and local culture in the much-loved 17th-century ‘Jordaan’ (once a 17th century ghetto, now the most appealing and desirable of neighborhoods). Enjoy a glimpse into the modish abodes of the Amsterdammers who still adhere to the Dutch belief that those who draw curtains must have something to hide.

Sjoukje Oostindie –
🙂 We actually had a really great time! We’ve been in NL for 2.5 years and hadn’t yet experienced all of the Dutch food Thijs offered us. He was also really amazing at editing the tour based on how much time our group had and whether or not it was raining! He’s also super knowledgeable and has great stories and is amazing with expats.
Thank you again for finding this tour for us!

We recently took the Street Food tour and had a truly amazing time. The host, Bo, was knowledgeable, fun, and interesting. She took us to a perfect selection of spots to try an array of tasty Dutch treats. The pace was nice as it never felt rushed and the smaller group size made it feel relaxed and personal. Highly recommended!
