Experience the Heart of Amsterdam: Food & History Galore
Unearth the true taste and tales of Amsterdam on this ultimate food and history tour. Begin this gastronomic journey in the stunning Spui district with your English-speaking local guide. The tour kicks off in the charming Spui district with a visit to a legendary, fourth-generation bakery established in 1898. Here, you'll sample a freshly made stroopwafel, a perfect introduction to Dutch sweets. Next, you'll step into a historic "brown cafe," a quintessential Amsterdam experience. Dating back to 1921, this cafe has been a favorite among intellectuals, creatives, and even politicians. Here, you'll indulge in a slice of Dutch apple pie paired with a cup of coffee. As you stroll through the historic center with your guide, hidden gems come alive. You'll hear fascinating stories about unassuming landmarks, like a 14th-century courtyard that was a key location for the 1960s counterculture movement.
Explore Vibrant Neighborhoods & Dutch Delicacies
After soaking in the history of Spui, your taste buds will be treated to authentic Amsterdam street food. A family-run stand, a local favorite since the 1980s, will offer their famed herring and kibbeling for you to try. No Amsterdam food tour is complete without indulging in fries. A hidden gem, a shop operating for over 70 years, will provide you with a cone of piping hot fries drizzled with a special Dutch sauce. Crossing the canal, you'll enter the 17th-century Jordaan neighborhood. Here, a family-owned delicatessen awaits with a selection of delectable Dutch cheeses for you to savor. The final stop takes you to a cozy eatery housed in a former Dutch painter's home. Decorated in a traditional style, the eatery will offer a taste of Dutch classics: bitterballen (savory fried meatballs), stampot (mashed potato dish), and Dutch sausage, all perfectly complemented by a glass of Dutch beer.
