“This tour includes very many tasty vegan delights, including main dishes and desserts. It was more walking than a typical food tour (6.5 km), and none of the promotional materials mentioned that.

But we probably wouldn't have booked the tour had we known how long the tour was. I would recommend this tour to a friend without walking difficulties.”

Julian and Bram were excellent tour guides, very attentive and passionate about sharing their knowledge of the city. They made the tour very easy to follow for people of all ages, not only highlighting the usual history facts. The path through the city was really well thought, and easy to walk along the streets. It was also much appreciated that they did the tour in English for non Dutch fluents. I would recommend it to anyone here in Utrecht for the first time or who…”
