Twenty-five minutes from Amsterdam sits the city the tour buses skip. Come hungry. Utrecht is older than Amsterdam and the locals like it quieter. This is a small-group food walk led by a local guide who knows the people behind the food. A full Dutch lunch, not a handful of snacks. You eat as you go and leave full. Award-winning fried fish and the herring story behind Dutch wealth. A sandwich locals have queued for decades. Real Dutch cheese. A dark chocolate shaped like the tower you just stood under. Beer in a centuries-old hidden church. Fresh Dutch falafel in one of Europe's most vegan-friendly cities. Vegetarian and vegan guests welcome. Between bites come the stories: the only Dutch pope, a church disguised as a mansion, a church that is now a hotel. Easy pace, a 1.5 mile stroll, not a route march. Small groups, twelve at most. Two drinks included. Real bites, real stories, real Utrecht.

Meet your guide from a multiple award-winning tour operator in the heart of the city center and set off on a historical and cultural walking tour (that optionally ends at a historical city castle for a beer tasting). Learn about the city’s history that started around 2,000 years ago, when Utrecht was part of the northern border of the Roman Empire. Discover hidden spots and walk through little cobbled streets and churchyards; all leading to what has been for centuries the city’s main artery, the 1.5 m long old canal Oudegracht. Naturally, the Dom tower cannot be skipped for its dominating tower is Utrecht's pride and joy!
