Amsterdam Jordaan District Food Walking Tour

Meet your guide in Amsterdam’s Jordaan district, right outside of Café de Prins. Come hungry, as the tastings you’ll enjoy today add up to a satisfying meal.

Once a working-class neighborhood, Jordaan is now a sought-after area full of specialty shops, inviting cafes and world-class restaurants. Walk along canals and past historical buildings and off-the-beaten-path cultural attractions on your way to some favorite local haunts, where you’ll meet the people keeping Dutch food traditions alive.

Visit eight authentic food shops and eateries, and enjoy 12 tastings of Dutch specialties such as licorice, smoked sausage, herring, gouda cheese and bitterballen (fried meat balls), and try some unique Dutch food with an Indonesian flare.

In between stops, your guide — a passionate foodie and expert local — will entertain you with stories and insights into Amsterdam’s history and culture. Pause in front of Anne Frank House, find some hidden churches and discover what used to be in the Jordaan area hundreds of years ago.

With a happy belly and loads of interesting Amsterdam insight, your tour concludes near the start point, by the Amsterdam Tulip Museum.
