Party Cocktail Workshop with Nightclub Entrance in Amsterdam

This cocktail workshop has a strong focus on interaction and creativity. From the moment you arrive, you are actively involved, learning by doing rather than listening to long explanations. The experience is guided by professional bartenders who use real bar techniques and share insider knowledge you can easily apply at home. Another unique element is the seasonal cocktail menu. Instead of a fixed or standard selection, the menu changes throughout the year, using fresh ingredients and flavors that match the season and the atmosphere of the moment. This ensures that every workshop feels fresh and different, even for returning guests. Located right on Rembrandtplein, the workshop combines high-quality cocktails with one of Amsterdam’s most energetic settings. The inclusive approach offering equally refined alcohol-free alternatives means everyone can enjoy the same premium bar experience together, making it a fun, social, and memorable activity in the city.

Private Dutch Pancake Cooking Class in an Amsterdam Canal Home

What a wonderful...

What a wonderful opportunity to be part of a Dutch home meal for a couple hours. The host was kind, confident and thorough in her training. It was also nice to learn about Dutch history and culture from a native. I even went to the store to buy supplies to take home and recreate the appetizer. I would recommend this experience.

Fun experience

It was a fun experience and was short so I’d say worth the time to go give it a try and especially worth it if you like to know how it’s made. I have very little cooking skills and amazed at how well my final product turned out. Great hosts, very fun…

Lunch with Fusina

Fusina provided the most wonderful lunch experience. Her canal apartment was clean and beautiful and the view unmatched. She started us off with cheese and wine. She even made us an apple tart from her grandmother‘s recipe. Then we made Dutch pancakes. One savory one sweet. Beyond delicious! we had incredible conversation and she has a great sense of humor.She even gave us a gift to take away. Truly one of the highlights of our trip to Amsterdam. If she doesn’t put a smile on your face, nothing will!!!

Brilliant afternoon

Diederik was our host this evening in the best quaint wine shop. The wine tasting room is in a hidden area and was very cool. He had so much knowledge and was truly passionate about his craft. We had a great afternoon. There was only 4 of us over all, it was very personal and relaxed. The tasting went on for a couple hours and it was a very lovely afternoon out of the snow. Wines were great, would recommend.

Suzanne, what a legend! So much cheese

Suzanne took us through a fun 1 hour cheese and paired beverage (wine/Beer etc.) tasting. Included in the presentation was some history and cheese making insights from the Henry Willis farm. We were all amazed at the volume of cheese that was offered to us, and the wine smacked. This experience is a must do on your trip to Amsterdam. Thank you Suzanne!!!!

Amsterdam Bols Cocktail Experience and Cocktail Workshop

Joshua_D, Jun 2025

Fun experience; interesting drinks; great bartender!

I had honestly forgot this included the Bols Museum/Experience as well as the cocktial making class, so that was a nice surprise. It felt a little bit like the Johnnie Walker Scotch experience (if you've been), in that it was partly interactive, allowing you to do a "sensory" room and smell many different ingredients, which made it fun. At the end, you get a drink and then, during the cocktail making course, you make two more. So definitely don't arrive on an empty stomach, ha. It was interesting to hear the history of J/Genever, as I had honestly not heard about it until coming here (and I am a big cocktail person). Jennifer was our bartender and she was fanstastic, being patient and kind when half the class did not follow instructions correctly, and making sure everyone had a great time. I have been to other places throughout europe that do a "cocktail making course" and those have been pretty "meh" - often times just replicating a few drinks from "Sex and the City;" this felt like a unique experience using unique ingredients, so it was a lot more fun.
