About Amsterdam Food Tour
Taste the best of Dutch cuisine with our Amsterdam Food Tour! Join us for a walking tour through the city, exploring iconic Amsterdam landmarks such as Dam Square and the Westerkerk, while tasting classic Dutch dishes like crunchy kibbeling, stroopwafels, Dutch fries, and more! Along the route, your guide will also point out important historical sites including the Anne Frank House.
You’ll taste the best of Amsterdam’s local food, including salty snacks like bitterballen (bite-sized beef croquettes with a rich ragout filling) and kibbeling (deep-fried fish nuggets). Your tour guide will also bring you the finest Dutch cheese, herring, and Dutch fries.
After the savory food stops, it’s time for dessert! First, you’ll try a delicious apple tart and then the classic Dutch stroopwafel - a round, thin cookie made from two layers of dough held together by sweet syrup.
Because the Amsterdam Food Tour is a walking tour, you’ll see several historic sights as you move from food stop to food stop. Your guide will point out the Anne Frank House, the Westerkerk Church, the Begijnhof, and more!
The Amsterdam Food Tour will take you through the lively and colorful Flower Market - the only floating flower market in the world! You’ll also see the trendy Jordaan neighborhood, home to countless art galleries and local specialty shops.

I hadn’t heard much about Dutch food, but it’s super tasty. I think I gained 5 pounds, no kidding haha! We had a great time on this tour. The food we tried was so delicious, the apple tart was a great finish. Plus, I always prefer small groups like this, I think you connect better with the others.
I love food tours, so I had to try this Amsterdam tasting experience. 5/5 stars from me. Our guide Roman had a funny story about each dish, knew all about the landmarks we saw, and had lots of anecdotes about the passing neighborhood. We ate well and we learned so much. Fantastic tour!

EAT THE BEST OF DUTCH CUISINE
As you walk through Amsterdam, your guide will lead you through the essential food stops to taste classic Dutch dishes. Start with savory snacks you won’t find anywhere else. There will be bitterballen (deep-fried gravy and beef meatballs), kibbeling (battered cod chunks), local Dutch cheese, and classic Dutch fries - twice fried and served with a traditional satésaus (peanut sauce). After that comes dessert: a juicy apple tart and stroopwafels (thin, round, and waffle-style cookies filled with caramel syrup).
VIEW AMSTERDAM'S HISTORIC LANDMARKS
While walking between meals, you’ll see several famous Amsterdam monuments. Pass by the Anne Frank House, where the Franks hid from Nazi occupation, and stroll past the Westerkerk - the largest Protestant church in the Netherlands. You’ll also spot the Dutch Royal Palace, as well as the Begijnhof - one of Amsterdam’s oldest courtyards, dating from the Middle Ages. Your guide will explain that a hofje is a courtyard surrounded by almshouses.
WALK THROUGH QUIRKY AND COLORFUL STREETS
Experience Amsterdam like a true local as your guide leads you through central locations like the Flower Market - the only floating flower market in the world! It’s the perfect place to buy colorful tulips, daffodils, geraniums, and more. Afterward, you’ll walk through the popular Jordaan neighborhood, famous for its picturesque canals, countless art galleries, and local specialty shops. After all that delicious food, it’s only natural to try a local drink too. For a fun finish, consider Amsterdam Ice Bar tickets or Heineken Experience tickets, as they both offer a unique taste of the city.

Did you know that herring is traditionally sold in Amsterdam raw?
Haring, or raw herring, is a traditional Dutch specialty. Inexpensive, nutritious, and traditionally preserved, the raw fish has been popular in the Netherlands for over a thousand years. Today, haring is sold in haringkraam (herring stall) all over Amsterdam. To truly eat like a local, try a "broodje haring" - a haring sandwich with onions and pickles!
