This is not a group tour with strangers. It is your group, your guide, and for the last hour a boat that belongs only to you. We are a small independent company from Amsterdam. Your guides live here and take you to the shops and cafes they use themselves, not the places with a photo menu outside. The food tour has been running since 2015 and the boat finale is the ending guests kept asking for. You walk the old center, the 9 Little Streets and the Jordaan, taste 10 times along the way, then finish on a covered, heated salon boat through the UNESCO canal ring with a cold drink in hand. A separate captain drives, so your guide keeps the stories going at water level. Toilet on board, and the cruise runs rain or shine. About three hours on foot, one hour on the water, and no rush anywhere. Tell us what you like and your guide shapes the day around it.
