Great addition to our Amsterdam trip! The class was fun, easy to follow along with and the staff were so helpful, chatty and made a great effort to connect with each member of the group. The stroppwaffles we made we so yummy and great to have the addition of a drink after we did our baking too. It was great to have the option of making traditional stroppwaffles and ones that were decorated, we made one of each. Location easy to find and can be reached via the tram system if needed. Highly recommended for both adults and children (ours are 11 yrs+) and with yummy treat to take away too, what is not to enjoy.

Experiencing Amsterdam also means visiting the numerous sights and museums. Our highlight today was certainly the Rijksmuseum, which was quick and easy to get into with a ticket reservation! Make sure you allow 4 hours for this so that you have enough time to take in all the sights. We were there early, before 11.00 a.m., when it is still relaxed and less crowded, the masses only arrive in the afternoon, when it gets quite full. Then over to the MOCO Museum: Banksy, Warhol and co. A great end to the day!

I was impressed by the special collections immediately. The examples of wealth and elite craftsmanship in the past centuries were absolutely unreal to fathom. I also appreciate the acknowledgement that the people of these times and places wouldn't have the wealth they acquired without the sickening slavery and racism their societies thrived off of. Aswell as the depictions of Jesus being a man of color in some paintings

Such a fun activity to partake in!! The stroopwaffles were to die for and I'd recommend it to anyone visiting Amsterdam as the instructor was lovely and had a little banter with everyone making a really welcoming atmosphere. The class was 45 minutes but just make sure to leave yourself enough time to get to the location because it's a little out of the way (not too far by public transport though!)

We saw the beautiful paintings by Rembrant and Vermeer that brought our minds back to our past studies. The museum is very well organized, both for entry/exit and for jacket and bag storage.
