We had Gerard as our guide through this beautiful city. The experience was fantastic. His knowledge of a place where he grew up and called home for many years was insightful and inspiring. The bars, restaurants and shops were fantastic as they were beautiful. The food at every stop was delicious and it was fun to get to try authentic Dutch cuisine. My wife and I will certainly return to several of the stores for a meal before we leave Amsterdam. Thank you Gerard for making our experience in Amsterdam so much better. I highly recommend Eating Europe Food Tours as must do experience during your stay in Amsterdam.

Wonderful walk through Jordaan hitting some highlights of local cuisine Alison was a wonderful guide giving context to both the food and the area of Jordaan! If you're very into planning, you might be able to coordinate a similar experience for yourself, but this tour was quite well put together that are happy to leave that planning and research to someone else.

Delicious, Informative, and Relaxed Food Tour in Amsterdam with Allison We had a fantastic time on our food tour in Amsterdam, led by the wonderful Allison! She was incredibly knowledgeable—not only about the delicious Dutch food we sampled, but also about the rich history and charm of the Jordaan neighborhood. Her insights added so much depth to the experience and made each stop more meaningful.We visited six different spots, each offering something unique to taste and enjoy. From savory bites to sweet treats, the variety was great—and there were plenty of opportunities to sit, eat, drink, and chat. The pace was perfect: unhurried, relaxed, and well-balanced. It never felt rushed, which gave us time to truly savor the experience.This tour would be a great fit for couples, families with older kids, or even a group of colleagues. It felt social and intimate at the same time. And I have to say—my absolute favorite was the apple pie. It was out of this world!Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to combine great food with cultural insights in one of Amsterdam’s most beautiful neighborhoods. Thank you, Allison!

My favourite spot for Dutch pancakes is restaurant Upstairs on the Grimburgwal. Cheese, bacon and syrup are the holy trinity!
Exploring the historical Jewish quarter to the east of the city center, with the old Portuguese synagogue, Rembrandt's house and the Resistance Museum is a great way to learn about a lesser-known side of Amsterdam's history and culture.
