Eat with locals in Amsterdam
You're invited to come aboard a traditional canal houseboat for an authentic Dutch dinner, or take a personalized market tour with an expert local guide. Amsterdam is full of foodie things to do and Eatwith is the best way to experience the very best of this picturesque city!
See Amsterdam like a local!
Amsterdam, the Dutch capital, is a major tourist destination. The picturesque canals, beautiful tulips and thousands of bikes parked everywhere all paint a picture of typical Dutch living. One of the many fun things to do in Amsterdam is to go on a cruise of the canals; it'll give you a beautiful view of the city from a unique perspective.
If you're hungry, be sure to try local specialties like herring, biterballen and fries with mayonnaise. Dutch home cooking is a little bit different from what's served in restaurants, and the best way to taste the local cuisine is to book a lunch or dinner with one of our lovely Amsterdam hosts!
