Absolutely loved this tour!!! If you love cheese, this tour is for you. A history of the town, the factory, and the process give insight to the famous Gouda cheese, the namesake of the region. Must visit!!!

Fantastic fun my 13yr old boy and I lived it. Very interactive, very tasty but most of all the staff were amazing. Highly recommend this if you have time

The Gouda ('How-da") Cheese Experience is an interactive, educational, and fun self-guided walking tour through a museum. But, it is more a combination of a history museum and a science museum. The experience walks you through the history of the town of Gouda and then through the Cheese making process. Along the way, you sample Gouda cheese 🧀. The experience ends with a seated tasting of 5 different cheeses with explanations of each. Throughout the tour, you interact with different stations and fill out a questionnaire to be awarded the Cheese Master certificate at the end. The Experience tries to make it interesting for children and adults. There is a small Cafe at the end for purchasing cheese trays and refreshments.

We had an amazing experience at Gouda Cheese Experience as we had a lot of fun and we learnt a lot about the cheese. I think the best parts were when we were looking for answers to the quiz and became Cheese masters and when we got to taste and try cheese platter while listening the explanation behind what we are tasting. The staff was very polite and helpful.

Well worth doing the cheese master tour. Interesting museum and very interactive. Plus the cheese tasting at the end, was excellent! We had some cheesecake at their coffee shop afterwards and of course we bought some cheese to take home with a souvenir.

Amazing experience very interactive and even better cheese. Family owned which makes it even more enjoyable we had the pleasure of meeting the fabulous owner who transformed it from a cinema into a fabulous Gouda cheese experience with her mother . One of the best museum learning experiences I have had

A MUST SEE IN HOLLAND !!

We wish the summer tour would have been with less people per group. Anyway, fun for kids with interactive learning experiences and they also give you a clipboard with questions (front and back) to answer as you go through the experience. Video, audio, visuals, projections, games, photos and much more! The animation movie they show in the beginning is really cute :).

From our experience: To be honest, having to answer all the questions took time away from the enjoyment and learning more about the experience itself. We were too focused on the answers and kept going back in the rooms and replaying audio. For what? Well, we walked out right before the coolest part of the experience since the rooms get stuffy and there's a line for that last one.

If you don't want to participate in the experience, they have an ample cafe where you can enjoy cheese and other goodies, of course.

In the end, the rooms are too packed and they get stuffy. Kids are being kids! They run around looking for the fun questions they have to find answers to and collect stamps (laps part of the questions sheet) for.

Good experience for something fun to do in this town. It’s a self guided tour about the cheese process. It was a little busy so there was a bit of crowding but the tasting at the end was nice. Staff was friendly which is nice when you’re a tourist.
