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.
This is your tour, your way. Select breakfast, lunch, or dinner start times. Share any dietary needs in the special wishes box when booking. Vegetarian and pescatarian options available; gluten-free possible at most stops. Peanut, shellfish, and nut allergies usually not a problem, but please tell us so we can confirm with venues (e.g., skip pesto). Kindly remind your guide at the start of the tour.
Our private tours typically cover around 1.5 miles (2.5 km) at an easy pace, with plenty of delicious stops and time to soak up the sights. If you’d prefer a shorter stroll or have mobility concerns, just let us know — we’ll tailor the route so you enjoy the full flavor of Amsterdam without the rush.
