We had a wonderful time with Katya! The food was delicious and her historical information was informative which collaborated with the food. She was funny, yet very interesting as she told the history of the neighborhoods and the locations. If you have a chance, choose Katya for a great tour guide. She’s fantastic!!
Thijs was superb! We had a delightful day and enjoyed the food and drink. His knowledge of Amsterdam’s history along with maps to illustrate the periods throughout history added so much to the experience. We will certainly recommend Amsterdam Food Tours to friends in the States!
The food tour itself was outstanding, and I would highly recommend it based on the choices alone, but the stories and knowledge of the area made it all that more enjoyable. This was absolutely an experience not be missed. Taking it the first or second day is a terrific way to be introduced to Amsterdam, particularly the Jordaan. Thank you the Amsterdam Food Tour team for a fabulous day!
This was big fun and interesting. Discovering the hidden habits of the locals, and receiving some history facts combined with personal view on the way to the different stops. Don’t tell everybody this tour exists, you don’t want it to get too commercialized.
Joanna was very interesting and did a great job explaining the food andvlocale
Joanna was amazing at what she does! So knowledgeable and I love that she lives in the area. 10/10 would recommend this tour with Joanna.
Thijs led one of most outstanding and comprehensive food tours my husband and I have even been on (and we have done a lot)! We not only had an abundance and variety of Dutch food that was delicious but Thijs and his colleague Joanna shared so much Danish history not only about the food and the places we went to but about the neighborhoods and the development of Amsterdam. We both agreed Thijs food tour was one of the highlights of our 6 days in Amsterdam and we would strongly encourage anyone whether you’re interested in food, history or the culture of Amsterdam to do this tour!
We had an excellent afternoon with Katya earlier this month on the Grand Dutch food tour. We enjoyed sampling many dishes that we would not have tried otherwise (herring, satay, cured meats) if we were to go out on our own. The nice touch and probably my favourite (toss up between that and the apple pie) was the Dutch wine and cheese tasting in the quiet back room of this cute shop. We were very fortunate to only have our family of 3 on the tour so we got extra attention and all of our crazy questions answered along the way as we love hearing unique historical facts. Thanks again for treating us so well.
We do a food tour in every new country we visit, and this was one of the absolute best! Great history tied into delicious food stops at just the right pace. Thijs was a wonderful guide.
