MOST MEMORABLE -- We can honestly say that Dina was the best tour guide we encountered. We were in Amsterdam for six days then a river cruise for seven. Each day, we had one or two tours scheduled. We chose Dina because of the glowing referrals she received from her clients. We were not disappointed! Dina is very familiar with Amsterdam and the surrounding areas. She communicates and listens very effectively and has the ability to read people and truly understand their interests. Armed with that information, she is skilled at personalizing the tour to keep all parties interested and entertained. Dina provided the best insights into the local cuisine, food culture, and history. Dina’s engaging personality coupled with her incredible knowledge made our tour day with her a pleasure and we would highly recommend booking time with her during your Amsterdam stay.

We did two tours with Dina while in Amsterdam--this food tour plus a walking tour. We loved Dina. Personable. Great knowledge. And appreciated her flexibility and how she customized our tours based on our experience with Amsterdam and interests. Also appreciated all the restaurant suggestions. The high wine experience was the bomb! Taking high tea to a whole new level. The day we went the restaurant had won 2 Michelin stars. The food, wine and ambience hit the mark with our group. Thank you!

Dina is a very special person. She knows food...how to prepare it, how to cook it and how to enjoy it. Her Excellent Food Tour was amazing. We went to 2 very special luxury hotels. The first stop was for wine and a charcutarie board of wonderful cheeses and meats. Our second was the Amstel Restaurant. There we had an amazing seat by the canal with an amazing 3 course dinner including wine. The whole experience was spectacular. If you want a true dining experience book with Dina, you won't be disappointed

Our experience in Amsterdam could not have been MORE perfect. Dina completely customized a wonderful culinary/sightseeing tour for four of us in Amsterdam. She met us at our hotel and we began our tour at an exclusive hotel for a "high wine" tasting menu with wine pairings -- it was absolutely terrific! Dina has a delightful, warm and friendly personality and is full of knowledge about her City. She tailored the entire tour to our wishes and it was fantastic. Do yourself a favor and choose Dina!!
