Not Really A Jordaan Tour
This tour is advertised as a Jordaan Food Tour. However, it has nothing to do with the Jordaan neighborhood. Most of the activities are just on the border of the Jordaan and it end by Anne Frank's House which is not in the Jordaan neighborhood at all. So, in that respect it is a misrepresentation of the tour. Also, the guide gave an overall descriptions of Amsterdam and did not go into any detail pertaining to the Jordaan neighborhood. As far as the food is concerned, it is typical food that is available in Amsterdam and is not particular to the Jordaan. So, overall I would say, that you will be better off just getting an Amsterdam Walking Tour. The information that will be provided is the dame. You can pick up the food by yourself for much less money.

Fun and Tasty
Sabrina took us on a great tour of the area with many tastings. She is an energetic, informative guide who accommodated a food allergy with no issues. Our favorites were the Herring and Poffertjes.

Amsterdam walking food tour
Sabrina was a great tour guide! Not only did we have great traditional food, but we saw so much of the city and got a great feel for the culture. The herring was a highlight for me - if you’re in Amsterdam, you must try it! The apple pie is also delicious, and different from what I have at home. 10/10 recommend!

Tasty Tour!
Fabulous way to start our trip in Amsterdam. Alda was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and the food was delicious! A must do tour, the mini pancakes alone would have made this worth the trip!

10/10 tour!
Paul was funny and did a lovely jog showing us around and explaining the history, culture and food. Would recommend! All of the food we had was delicious!
Response from the operator: Thank you. We are very happy to hear about your positive experience on the Jordaan food tour with Paul! I hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Amsterdam.

Why this scores 89
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amsterdam.
How much does Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam cost?
+
Prices start at $87 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 Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam 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 Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 2,655 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 Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam?
+
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 Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam 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 Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam?
+
Around 929 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 Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam 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 Canal Cruise with Local Guide and Small Group, Guided Bike Tour of Amsterdam's Highlights & Hidden Gems, Amsterdam: Luxury Canal Cruise including Cocktails & Snacks. 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.
