This not JUST a walking tour nor JUST a cheese and wine tasting. Your guide Michael has 20 years experience running his own cheese shop in Switzerland, he now spends most of his time writing and talking about cheese, including taking guests on his unique cheese "Shopping Walks".

On his tours you will visit 2 cheese shops and learn how to spot the best cheeses and how to make a perfect cheese board.

The tasting is held in a unique wine shop - it only stocks Dutch Wine! The owner will give an introduction about Dutch Wine and he will choose a White and a Red Wine to compliment the cheeses.

Michael will then serve the cheeses and explain why they all look, smell and taste different. You'll also learn how the cheeses are made the history of the recipes. He also has many interesting anecdotes to share!

Other tours (inc with craft beer and private walks on luxury canal boats) are available on other days as well as workshops with no shop walks, please contact me.

This was a great, very well organized tour led by a superb guide (Michael). Michael's knowledge re cheese is surpassed only by his love of the subject and his adopted country. After visiting two cheese shops, we went to a pub for a cheese tasting (soft cow, goat, smelly cow, hard cow, and blue) paired with several beers. In addition to great stories re past experiences as a cheese monger, Michael provided us with suggestions re cheese selection, pairings, and preparation. Such a fun afternoon, and easily a highlight of our visit to this wonderful city. Communication was excellent during booking and prior to the tour. His multiple 5-Star reviews are well-earned. 100% recommend.

We enjoyed this experience so much. We had a group of 10 people and we thought it was our favorite activity in Amsterdam. Michael was very knowledgeable and we learned all about something old, something new, something stinky and something blue!

This tour was the highlight of our trip to Amsterdam. Perfect combination of walking, talking, shopping and drinking. I wasn't sure that I could trust that all the fabulous reviews were actually real. They are. Michael met us at our hotel, there a brief introductory talk, we went to 2 cheese shops, stopped for coffee/beer and then went on to a pub where we did the cheese/beer tasting. I prefer wine, which was available. Besides learning about cheeses and beer pairings we learned how to select cheeses to make the perfect cheese board. As much as the tasting we loved walking through neighborhoods we wouldn't have found on our own. The next day we went back and revisited several of the locations. In fact, we ran into Michael! The hours just flew by. We learned so much about Amsterdam and the Netherlands. I can't recommend this tour enough. I would suggest doing it early during your visit to Amsterdam so that you have time to revisit any stores or neighborhoods that you liked.

For anyone looking for a cheese tour, this is definitely the one to do. Michael knows so much about cheese from his experience owning cheese shops and buying cheese professionally in various European cities. He gave us lots of practical tips on how to buy, store, cut and taste various cheeses. I will certianly be using this info during my next cheese buying outings. And of course the cheeses he chose for us to sample were exemplary. Most of which, I have never heard of or tasted before. And the structure of the tour is simple, yet clever. You visit a few cheese shops to buy what you will sample later and in between learn about Amsterdam as you walk to the shops and the final tasting location. Michael is the ultimate cheese expert and I'm so glad that I found him.
Fantastic sharing of Cheese passion!

Michael was a fantastic guide and host and we enjoyed every part of the tour - we like cheese but he helped us with his passion to really enjoy some cheeses old and new and I leave with a lifelong love of Brie de Meaux. Friendly, personable and above all passionate! Can’t recommend enough!

This was a fantastic cheese experience and I loved minute of it. Michael is passionate, interesting and a perfect guide to make you EXCITED not only about cheese but about life and the relationships between people and food. Michael gave personalized stories outlining how cheese has affected so many of us in unexpected ways. My group had non- cheese lovers to hard core cheese lovers and we all loved the tour. As Michael said, this is not a cheese tour, but a cheese discovery. You will taste cheese with a new appreciation and adventure of discovery. Find out what gourmet cheese really is and have your taste buds dance on the wings of angels.
