What to do and see in Oude Pijp, North Holland Province: The Best Things to do

November 18, 2021 Deane Carmody

This city, full of colorful homes, canals and bridges, is one of Europe's most picturesque capitals. Must-sees on any visitor's itinerary include the Anne Frank House, the Van Gogh Museum and the world's only floating flower market. Rent a bike and join thousands of locals navigating Amsterdam's labyrinthine streets, or just take in the sights on foot. For an unusual and memorable alternative to hotels, consider staying in a houseboat.

Hungry Birds, Amsterdam Street Food Tours

An independent and personable food tour company in Amsterdam founded in 2013. We believe that food is a universal language that brings people together and makes you experience the culture and heart of a place. Think of us as your friends or motherbirds who will feed you well and take good care of you during the experience. It should feel like a friendly, relaxed food walk with your motherbird and fellow hungry birds, rather than a traditional tour. We will of course share lots of stories along the way. But, we'd like to invite you to be yourself, share your stories as well, ask questions and connect with others. Because everyone makes the experience. So do you think you’re a true hungry bird? Then what are you waiting for? We'd love to meet you and make you feel at home. Come and let us take you off the eaten track to discover why we love Amsterdam.

What a brilliant experience. Erica is delightful and guided us through a lovely workshop which culminated in us having 2 bars of soap and 2 jars of body scrub which we made ourselves (under Erica’s expert eye) to take back to Australia. A most enjoyable activity which I would highly recommend.

Finally Amsterdam has a clean, stylish place for a professional Thai massage. I had an oil relax massage but they also do the traditional Thai massage to cure pains. Staff are very welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

My boyfriend booked in a slot for us at 9 pm to do a duo massage and it was the perfect way to round off the day. The place is spotless and you feel so relaxed as soon as you walked in. Our masseuses were Sandy and Karl. Both were very welcoming and asked us about what area they wanted us to focus on, which oil fragrance we preferred, and which music we wanted to listen to. The hour whizzed by but we both felt very relaxed afterwards.
