A Taste of Amsterdam!
My wife and I had two short days to spend in Amsterdam, and taking this secret food tour was a highlight! Jolanda, our guide, is a force to be reckoned with, with her high energy, wealth of knowledge and contagious laugh made our experience a truly fun time. From our first stop eating delicious Poffertjes to the last wolfing down a gigantic piece of apple pie with whipped cream, the day was a mouthwatering extravaganza. But what made the day even more special was getting to meet the proprietors of several establishments, who shared stories and treated us not just to food and drink, but also shared their own personal sagas, which added a special 'flavor' to the day. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: We hope you came away with a better appreciation for the local food scene. Having you with us on Secret Food Tours made the experience lively, relaxed, and full of good moments. There’s always another meal worth sitting down for!

Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amsterdam.
How much does Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area cost?
+
Prices start at $111 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Amsterdam usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Amsterdam is not rushed.
Is Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 414 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Amsterdam, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area?
+
Around 145 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Amsterdam can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Amsterdam and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Amsterdam Food Tour of 10+ Local Classic Tastings in Jordaan Area start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Amsterdam within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Amsterdam?
+
On Outty we rank every Amsterdam experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Amsterdam Food and Cultural Tour with 10 Tastings, Amsterdam Canal Cruise with Local Guide and Small Group, Amsterdam 90 minutes Canal Cruise with bar and snacks on board.. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Amsterdam?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Amsterdam?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
