What You’ll Experience

Cafe Papeneiland

Your guide welcomes you in front of one of Amsterdam’s most iconic and centuries-old ‘brown cafes’ where you will taste the famous homemade Dutch apple pie just like Bill Clinton once did. On this tour a non-alcoholic drink, draft beer or glass of wine is price included. If you like you can also pay your guide cash €10 for a ‘Drinks Upgrade’ for 2 local craft beers, Dutch Jenevers (gin) or prosecco or 1 cocktail / mix drink (and 1 regular drink)

30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

JWO Lekkernijen

Mingle with the locals at this luxury delicatessen, where doing something very Dutch—‘een broodje halen’ (grabbing a fresh sandwich)—is part of daily life. Join Amsterdam residents who come here to relax with friends and enjoy their favorite sandwiches. You’ll be served their signature 'Broodje Grillworst Speciaal': a freshly baked baguette filled with warm, flavorful pork sausage, topped with honey-mustard sauce, mayonnaise, pine nuts, and arugula. Served with a soft drink of your choice. Vegetarian options are available.

20 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Oma's Friet Amsterdam

When in the Netherlands, trying a ‘bitterbal’ or ‘kroket’ is a must! These iconic Dutch snacks are essentially the same treat in different sizes—crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside. They come in many varieties, but we’re proud to serve what is widely considered one of the best: the Holtkamp garnalenkroket (shrimp croquette), made by one of Amsterdam’s most renowned patisseries. If you're not that into seafood, don't worry—there's also a delicious beef or vegetarian version available.

15 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Bourgondisch Lifestyle Amsterdam

Don’t be fooled by the mini cubes of tourist cheese served on many Dutch food tours. We take cheese seriously—and so do Amsterdam’s top chefs. That’s why we bring you the finest Dutch cheeses, the same ones featured on high-end restaurant menus throughout the city. In our very own private tasting room, you’ll discover what Boerenkaas truly means and taste the remarkable difference between mass-produced cheese and artisanal raw milk Dutch cheese. Naturally, this experience is paired with a selection of excellent wines.
