Itinerary:
Get your stomach ready for an adventure into the culinary heart of one of Europe’s most celebrated cities – amazing Amsterdam. Start the tour by joining a friendly guide in one of the oldest squares in Amsterdam. Find out why the locals love snacking on hot, salty Belgian fries by trying some yourself then sample another local fave – herring. Continue your walk through the city, passing Amsterdam’s iconic moats and canals, before venturing into a cheese shop packed with a quality selection of rich cheese. Enjoy a quick taste testing session, then walk to the VOC spice house, a remnant of the East Indies spice trade that shaped this area centuries ago. Afterwards, head to a distillery that dates back to the 17th century where you can take the opportunity to sip spirits and other traditional drinks. Next, enjoy free time to explore Amsterdam independently. Why not relax in a café, admire art at a gallery, explore a museum or hang out in a bar?
Your trip:
For your Urban Adventure you will be in a small group of a maximum of 12 people.
Tipping:
If you are happy with the services provided by your local guides and drivers a tip - though not compulsory - is appropriate. While it may not be customary to you, it is of great significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels, inspires excellent service, and is an entrenched feature of the tourism industry across many Intrepid Urban Adventures destinations. Please consider this when budgeting for your extra expenses on this tour.
