Rijksmuseum Guided Tour – With Reserved Entry

During this 120 minute art tour, through the permanent collection in the Rijksmuseum, you will explore how artists like Rembrandt and Frans Hals captured the incredible expansion of the Dutch Golden Age. See the people, objects, and the painting.

Description

Meet your guide 15 minutes before the start of the 120 minute tour, outside the Cobra Cafe at Museumplein, by the parking/toilet entrance of the cafe. Your guide will be holding an orange umbrella so it is easy to identify! Entrance into the Rijksmuseum is included in your tour, and the guide will have your tickets ready for you.

Once inside the museum, you and your small group will explore the highlights of the Dutch Golden Age, exploring the art and objects that defined the new Dutch Republic. Be amazed by the illusionism of the still-life and interiors paintings, be inspired by the scale of Rembrandt’s ‘The Nightwatch’, and see the dollhouse of every young child’s dreams. Along the way, your professional guide will explain the social and historical context that gave rise to one of the biggest middle class art markets the world had ever seen. After the tour, you are welcome to continue to explore the rest of some of the 8,000 works on display as your ticket is valid all day. Or maybe you want to relax in the cafe or the museum shop.

Please note that the special exhibitions are not always included. No large bags, suitcases, or umbrellas are allowed inside the museum, only handbags or small thin backpacks are allowed inside. For the enjoyment of all the visitors in the museum, some specific rooms inside the museum are subjected to a very quiet or restricted right to speak inside, in this case your guide will provide information about these places before entering the specific rooms where this rule applies.

 Verified Fantastic historical walk
We had a wonderful and deeply moving experience on the Anne Frank walking tour in Amsterdam with our guide, Genevieve. Genevieve was knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly thoughtful in the way she brought Anne Frank’s story and the history of Amsterdam during World War II to life. She shared fascinating historical details while also giving us time to reflect on the places and stories we encountered along the way. The tour was very well paced, informative without feeling overwhelming, and gave us a much deeper understanding of Anne’s life and the history surrounding her story. Genevieve’s passion and sensitivity really made the experience special. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Amsterdam. Thank you, Genevieve, for such a memorable and meaningful experience!

 Verified Never forget
Those who do not learn from history are fated to repeat it. Our fantastic guide Genevieve gave us one of the best historical tours we have ever experienced. All the back stories made an already compelling story more vivid, more relevant, and more visceral. Thank you for a mind-opening experience.

 Verified Must Do in Amsterdam
I couldn’t imagine visiting Amsterdam without taking this tour. Our guide, Manuel, was incredible and told the stories of Jewish persecution in a very touching and somber way. A heartfelt experience.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went in to this tour thinking I’d be disappointed because I thought I booked for the actual Anne Frank House museum! But I was immediately impressed with our tour guide Yoshi who captured our attention with amazing stories of history and facts that made us feel we were taken back into time. Highly recommend Yoshi if you can get him! Such a great tour and have a whole new perspective of the story of Anne Frank I thought I knew.
