This was a fun and YUMMY food experience! We had four totally different foods, Krokets, Suranom-Javanese soup, killer award winning sweet-potato-french-fries, and delicious cheese cake. Our guide Jenny was very good and explained a lot about the food scene in Rotterdam. Unfortunately we took this tour on our last day, and wish we had made it our first tour of the city. So much good food, so little time!

We had a wonderful cultural food experience with Fee. Fortunately, it was a personalized tour because we were the only couple signed up for this slotted time. Fee was knowledgeable and the food was yummy. Never had food from Suriname before. We had an amazing and tasty experience! This tour did not disappoint and we really enjoyed Fee’s company

Great Experience

Our tour with Merrel was lovely! She was very communicative as we were scheduling the tour around a work conference. We spent 3 hours walking around the city and stopping at quite a few spots. I’m glad that I read other reviews and came with an empty stomach. It was definitely a full meal worth of food! The brewery we ended the tour at was great and our group stayed for a couple hours after. 10/10, highly recommended

Food tour was great

Don’t plan to eat anything after the tour! We couldn’t even finish all the food on the tour, took some back to the hotel

A great tour!

Great food, great guide, great time!

We had a great time during our tour. Jenny was super sweet, personal, and knowledgeable. We learned a lot during our time with Jenny. But it wasn’t a super boring lecture. It was just a casual conversation while walking through town and tasting some yummy food. My girls (6 and 9) are somewhat picky eaters but not only did they tried everything, they really liked some of the stuff we tried. Of course we all loved the sweets, but the fried fish and the Surinamese food were both our favorite!!! If you are going to Rotterdam, this is a tour you have to try!

Great tour to get introduced to Amsterdam!

Joeri was a great guide. We saw a lot of Amsterdam, had only one other couple on the tour. Loved the food, stories, history…. Even the herring!

Food was interesting

Dwight_T, Apr 2025
The food was very tasty and enjoyed the walk around town… wished we had a little more information shared as per the food and history of the area than we received…

Great tasting tour

We enjoyed our foodie tour with Jenny yesterday . We discovered much of Rotterdam, had delicious food from the Markthal, Japanese souffle cafe, soup and plantains with peanut sauce, and finished with bevvys . Jenny was a delight and we love Rotterdam.

Nice guide and good tour. Not tons of local food but I think perhaps that is just part of rotterdam culture
