This is a Sherpa Food Tour, part of our global collection of High-Fidelity Local Experiences designed for curious travelers and passionate food lovers.

You’ll start with bold Surinamese flavors in the Waterlooplein Market, enjoy creamy veal croquettes in a beloved Dutch lunch spot, and dive into a trendy brown Cafe where classics merge with new wave. Walk along the iconic Amsterdam canals, explore the historic Jordaan, and discover how centuries of migration and trade created one of the world’s most multicultural food scenes.

You’ll sample a cheese Dutch tasting, enjoy a modern take on Dutch comfort food, and finish with a traditional dessert — a spirited way to say goodbye.

Along the way, you’ll hear stories of Amsterdam’s layered past, from its Jewish quarter to its colonial ties, its merchant class to modern-day artists and tastemakers. This isn’t just a food tour — it’s a cultural deep dive into the beating heart of the Netherlands.

This is a carefully curated, locally led experience designed for curious travelers and passionate food lovers, just like all Sherpa tours. Join us for an unforgettable food and canal tour in Amsterdam — and leave full, inspired, and just a little bit tipsy.
