Stop At: Rijksmuseum, Museumstraat 1, 1071 XX Amsterdam The Netherlands

Always wanted to see the famous work of the Dutch Masters; Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Frans van Hals? Your private guide provides a personal experience of the Netherlands’ most visited art museum.
With a deep knowledge of the displayed art, the guide explains the stories behind the artists’ and their work in fluent English. And of course, what would a visit to the Rijksmuseum be without getting eye-to-eye with Rembrandt’s masterpiece – De Nachtwacht? Don’t worry, we will teach you how to pronounce it correctly!

More than just a tour of Dutch masterpieces, in this tour you will learn more about how the art fits into the historical context of the Netherlands. Your guide takes you through the museum to provide the stories behind the paintings that go much deeper than the descriptions on the wall.

You’ll hear quirky stories about the artists, fun facts about their work, and how their work contributed to the Dutch cultural heritage. We will see the furniture of a typical 17th century house, the beautiful library, famous white and blue pottery pieces, and even what naval battles looked like.

Not only the paintings will be discussed. Also the impressive, newly-renovated building itself gets a mention. After years of renovation, the Rijksmuseum has reopened in 2013 – a work of art in itself. In true Amsterdam style, cyclist can bike underneath the gates at the entrance. If you are lucky, you will also hear a free classical concert as you enter the building.
