Dine in Amsterdam Central Station’s 1885 first-class rooms with a three-course meal, grand architecture, city views, and strong value.
“We never would have known of this restaurant other than through Get Your Guide. Nice ambience and we enjoyed our experience The food quality was uneven. All of my courses were very good but my wife thought her meal tasted like mediocre quality of an American diner restaurant. By pre-purchasing the meal, it was cheaper than ordering the courses separately at the restaurant. Our waitress seemed harried and never brought the wine that I ordered.”

Learn Dutch sweet and savory pancakes in Fusina’s Amsterdam canal home, with local stories, wine, and a truly personal cooking experience.
“Whenever we go to different places, we like to take a cooking class to get a hands on experience with the local cuisine. Our kids enjoy cooking and we find it helps them connect with the local culture. This time, we were in Amsterdam and searched for a class to learn to make Dutch Pancakes. We spent almost €275 for a family of four (two adults and two kids – ages 9 and 11) on this local activity in the center of Amsterdam. The value for us was not there. I would not recommend this “Pancake Making Class” to anyone that actually wants to learn to make pancakes. It was…”
