Dutch food is simple and satisfying, and the best way to try it is on foot. The food tours on this page lead small groups through the Jordaan and the old centre to taste aged Gouda and other cheeses, raw herring, bitterballen, fresh stroopwafels and apple pie, often with a glass of beer or jenever, the Dutch gin. Guides share the history of the city's trade in spices, coffee and cheese along the way.
Before you book
Most food tours last about three hours and include enough food for lunch. Tell the operator about dietary needs in advance. Some tours change their menu on Sundays, when certain shops are closed.
