Overview

-Not a pub crawl — a cultural experience. This is a curated journey through Old Amsterdam’s history, canals, and Red Light District, told through beer, bites, and bold stories.

-Authentically local. Hosted by Adam & Eve Amsterdam Food Tours, a boutique company with 3,000+ 5-star reviews and 100% Amsterdam-based guides.

-Premium yet personal. Small groups (max 10) mean real conversations, reserved seating, and attentive service at every stop.

-Inclusive and flexible. Wine or non-alcoholic swaps are always available — so couples and non-beer drinkers enjoy the same full experience.

-Historic storytelling. Learn about Heineken’s first café, Amsterdam’s original Wall Street, sailors who paid with monkeys, and the city’s famous tolerance.

-Hidden gems only locals know. Step into places like Lagerhuys, Brakke Grond and De Prael — authentic!

-Tastings with meaning. Every stop has a storey — from social breweries employing locals to cafés that survived the city’s plagues and floods.

Activity itinerary

Gastrovino Amsterdam - De Mannen Van Kaas

Begin near Spui Square at Gastrovino, a boutique delicatessen where you’ll sample aged Dutch cheese and start off our adventure!

Cafe De Dokter (Pass by)

Peek into Café de Dokter, founded in 1798 by a surgeon. Its dusty bottles, chandeliers, and six seats make it feel straight out of a Harry Potter film. If space permits, enjoy a mini tasting while hearing why beer was once considered a medicine.

Restaurant & Bar Lagerhuys

30m
Admission ticket included

Sit inside Lagerhuys, the historic spot where Gerard Heineken once served the "Nuveau Riche". Sip two local beers (or wine / NA options) paired with smoked sausage as you learn about miracles, merchants, and the city’s love of a good brew.

Kapitein Zeppos (Pass by)

Slip into Kapitein Zeppos, a leafy courtyard café tucked behind the Begijnhof. Savour a small beer (or rosé / ginger soft drink) and hear how artists and poets once debated politics and pilsners in Amsterdam’s secret alleys.

Brakke Grond, Flemish Cultural Centre

30m
Admission ticket included

At De Brakke Grond, sample two Belgian-style beers and a Flemish snack inside this cultural centre owned by Flanders itself. Learn how Dutch and Belgian brewers turned centuries of rivalry into friendly froth.

Dam Square (Pass by)

Cross Dam Square, admire the Royal Palace, and hear how a fishing village built on beer and trade became Europe’s Golden Age powerhouse — and how the Miracle of Amsterdam turned spirits into pilgrims.

Oudezijds Voorburgwal (Pass by)

Stroll beside the UNESCO-listed canals, following the line where Amsterdam’s medieval wall once stood — the origin of the name “Wallen” and the inspiration for Wall Street. Hear how beer barrels and merchant wealth literally built the city’s freedom.

Red Light District (De Wallen)

Enter the historic Red Light District, where monks once prayed and sailors celebrated survival. Your guide reveals how commerce, faith, and freedom intertwined to shape Amsterdam’s most famous area — no windows, just stories.

Condomerie (Pass by)

Outside the Condomerie, the world’s first condom shop, you’ll learn how the Dutch turned taboos into education. Next door, the Oude Kerk, the city’s oldest building, shows how sin and sanctity peacefully coexist in Amsterdam.

Oude Kerk (Pass by)

Oldest building in the city shows how religion and sin can sleep on the same bed.

Int Aepjen (Pass by)

Pass by Café In ’t Aepjen, a 15th-century pub where sailors once paid their tabs with monkeys brought from the East Indies. It’s one of Amsterdam’s oldest taverns and a living symbol of the city’s global trade and legendary thirst.

Brouwerij de Prael

30m
Admission ticket included

End at De Prael Brewery, a microbrewery that gives work to people from the social care system. Enjoy your final two craft beers (or wine / ginger soft drink) and raise a glass to seven centuries of Amsterdam’s freedom and flavour.
