Self Guided- Good food + Easy to Follow - We ended up doing the self guided tour which was super easy to follow and all the businesses knew who we were right away. It was a rainy day so it was perfect- we did not want to try to figure out something to do for multiple hours. The food was great and was a lunch full plus some- I was happily very full!

Great value for money! - A lovely afternoon wandering the streets of Rotterdam under Rob's knowledgeable guidance. Tried some lovely food and learned much more than we would have had we been alone. Highly recommend this trip, both the quantity of the food and the quality of the guide makes it great value for money

Food and History-the best kind of tour. - Loran was an excellent guide. He was cheerful and full of historical information about not only Rotterdam but the Netherlands too. The food choices were all enjoyable. If only he could have ordered better weather-lol. Definitely recommend this tour.

Great food tour with a fantastic guide. - Our guide (Umesh) was very personable young man, and extremely knowledgeable about the city & its history. The food choices were varied and all were excellent. The walk was easy for our group (1 in mid 30’s & 6 seniors). It included a short boat ride from one location to another. The tour had about 6 stops & actually lasted a bit longer than scheduled, as we were just relaxing & enjoying a beer & some cheese. I’d definitely recommend this tour & I’d do it again because he rotates about 20 different venues & each tour is a bit different.

Not just about the food (though that was very good!) - It was great to learn about the transformation of Rotterdam over the last 80 years. And the food was delicious too!

A great walking tour, with good food and good company. - We love to book food tours in new cities and we'd never been to Rotterdam. It was a fantastic tour with just 6 people led by our great guide Rob. The pace was perfect and the food (bites) were just right. We learnt so much about Rotterdam and the 4 hour tour was never rushed and we got a much better idea of the city than wandering ourselves. It also included a water taxi over to the Southside, something we wouldn't have done. Rob also showed us The Depot which we visited the next day. What a fantastic bit of advice that was. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rotterdam.

Fun and educational food tour - We loved our tour guide, Rob. He introduced us to Dutch culture and lifestyle through food. He emphasized the distinct history and architecture of Rotterdam and showed us many city neighborhoods. It was a fun and educational tour. Highly recommend.

Amazing food tour! - This was by far one of the best food tours I've ever been to. Tim was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, and personable. He always managed to keep us engaged with fun facts. He even took the time to guide me back to the train station as I was returning to Eindhoven that very same day. I enjoyed the food that we tasted. All the restaurants were superb and got to see a little of Rotterdam in the process. I definitely recommend this tour, and next time, I will bring my husband!
