Highlights

During this 120-minute art tour, through the permanent collection in the Rijksmuseum, you will explore how the artists Rembrandt and Vermeer captured the incredible expansion of the Dutch Golden Age. See the people, the objects, and the paintings that define this unprecedented era of Dutch history, and explore how the art reflects the changing values and beliefs of the republic. Meet your guide at the Cobra Cafe at Museumplein. Right at the starting time of the tour, the guide will enter the museum with the group. People who are late will unfortunately loose their ticket, as the museum works with strict timeslots. After the 2-hour guided tour inside the Rijksmuseum, you can stay as long as you wish, relax at the cafe or continuing appreciating the work of arts.

  • 3Excellent tour but difficult to change things with viator

    The guide was fantastic and she made the tour very interesting. It’s a terrific way to see the highlights of the museum. However I booked for 6 and 2 of our party fell ill and returned home. I tried to cancel the two tickets 4 days before the tour with Viator in the US and was told the website wasn’t working. Contact local operator in Amsterdam. I did and she said she would do it and call me back but never did. I won’t use viator again because who wants to spend hours on phone when on holiday.

  • 5Enjoyed our tour

    Yimen was an excellent guide who made our Rijksmuseum tour truly enjoyable. She explained everything in great detail and brought the artworks to life by sharing fascinating stories about the artists, the historical era, the city, and Dutch culture. Her knowledge and engaging storytelling made the tour both informative and interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend this tour!

About Amsterdam

Amsterdam rings its golden-age centre with tree-lined canals, gabled houses and bridges, packing great art and easy cycling into a compact city.

The canal ring, dug in the seventeenth century, curves around the old centre in concentric arcs: Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht, lined with tall merchants' houses. The Jordaan, just west, is a maze of small canals, courtyards, brown cafés and independent shops, and the Anne Frank House stands on the Prinsengracht at its edge.

Top-ranked sights in Amsterdam: Amstel River, Skinny Bridge (Magere Brug), Anne Frank House.
