So much to experience

You see so much on this tour. Rob did a brilliant job of making the trip fun and informative. There are so many different things to see and explore. Be sure to wear good walking shoes, as the walking tour is over many different types of pavement. Definitely recommend.

What a fun way to explore...

What a fun way to explore Amsterdam. David, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and being a history buff, he gave us a well rounded historical overview of Amsterdam. My husband and I always start our trip of a new city with a food walking tour. It’s such a great way to see the city by foot, enjoy the cuisine and get a “taste” of what it has to offer. Amsterdam Food and Cultural Tour didn’t disappoint. We highly recommend it!

We did the 18+ cruise and it was fantastic. Zara was a friendly, funny, and knowledgeable guide and host. The boat was clean, comfortable and well piloted. Appreciated that it was a smaller boat which felt a bit more intimate. It’s a little tricky to find the right pier for the cruise but we managed to get there.

Canal cruising at its best

Entertaining and lovely canal cruise with wine and cheese. The boat was beautiful, comfortable, and clean. Our crew was the best! Jay, Kevin, and Olivia were pleasant, knowledgeable, and fun. The 20 something year olds were skeptical and thought it was so much fun! They thanked me many times for booking the trip. The boat ride went quickly, but gave a great overview of the city center and was filled with fun facts about Amsterdam. Would definitely book again.

Enjoyable experience

Maria is great at what she does. Not only did she introduce us to Dutch foods but she shared historical and cultural tidbits along the way. Glad we joined the tour on empty tummies as all the yummy foods we tried filled us up very well. It was time well spent and well enjoyed!

Great intro to Amsterdam

I did this tour on my first day in Amsterdam and it was a great way to get my bearings in the city and get ideas of areas I wanted to come back to. It was a small group of 4 of us and our guide was very welcoming. I appreciated being taken to small local shops that didn't feel touristy. Highly recommend

Very fun & delicious Amsterdam food tour

Our family of 2 adults and 1 teen had a super fun time with Stephanie our guide, and one other couple. It was great to be a small group. We walked to six different stops in a vibrant and colorful Amsterdam neighborhood. The snacks/food that we sampled were all local and different than what we eat at home (except for the cheese, but it was better cheese than US cheese ;)). We also had beer/wine/drink of choice at almost all the places, also included. Stephanie our guide was very friendly, knowledgeable, taught us some cool Amsterdam/Dutch info, and easygoing. We had a great time!

Great Food Tour with Todd!

We had an incredible food tour in Amsterdam with our guide, Todd, who is originally from Wisconsin and has lived in the city for 13 years. His deep knowledge of both Dutch culture and American perspective made the experience especially engaging and easy to understand. Our tour began with a walk through the vibrant flower market, followed by a stop at Henri Willig for some outstanding cheese. From there, we sampled a classic Dutch specialty—herring—which Todd explained in a way that made it approachable even for first-timers. We also enjoyed traditional Dutch fries with a variety of sauces, which were absolutely delicious. One of the highlights was Melly’s Stroopwafels, served warm right out of the oven—easily a favorite moment of the tour. We wrapped up the experience at a cozy local pub, which was the perfect ending. Throughout the tour, Todd pointed out key landmarks, shared fascinating insights, and patiently answered all of our questions. He also made sure to stop frequently for photos, which we really appreciated him taking our group shots. We saw so many unique sites and enjoyed the information. Todd provided. His ability to interpret cultural nuances from a fellow American perspective made everything more meaningful and easy to follow. What are the most important things we learned was the walking, biking, car, and tram etiquette so we didn’t get run over, ha ha . I would highly recommend this food tour with Todd—it was a perfect blend of great food, local history, and excellent company.

Yummy Amsterdam

Abby was a great guide, enthusiastic and fun. We went to local places and all the food was great. I liked the cheeses the most and my husband loved the sausage and herring. The surprise dessert of French toast and coffee ice cream was a delight. I highly recommend a Sherpa tour!

Very informative tour with great snacks

Andrea was our amazing, informative, wonderful guide. She provided a very complete history of the red light district as well as of the city of Amsterdam. Pointed out key buildings and explained events that have shaped the city today. She provided a matter-of-fact descriptions of the historic and current laws regarding the red light district. Stops for pancakes, jenever, croquettes and stroopwaffles added appreciation for the area.
