The museum is very good! I just would have liked two thinks: 1- related to the museum - the audio guide was really good even though I would have preferred an introduction on Van Gogh and an explanation on his artistic phases while we were moving across the levels of the museum. 2-i didn’t understand the the audio guide is related to the canal cruise and not to the museum. You can purchase the guide in the museum for 5 additional €

Planned a one day trip to Amsterdam for a birthday. Although we had to book the canal cruise upon arrival, the planning and explanation on the booking was very practical. We had no surprises and still had plenty of time leftover in our day to visit the city. The cruise was great and the museum, even as crowded as it was, ended being just what any Van Gogh enthusiast would hope the experience to be.

To get into the museum, you skip the ticket line but still need to get in que to enter. We picked 9:15am slot and lucked out with much smaller crowds and very enjoyable visit. We also visited the temporary exhibits. We enjoyed lunch after and took our time to cross the town for the boat tour. It was very informative, relaxing and nice. Definitely recommend this package.

Everything worked out well, we didn’t have any problems with the tickets. Also, we requested some additional info by email that was quickly provided. The museum is very beautiful, and the audio guide is a must to understand VG’s work. The cruise was nice, and the Captain very friendly. I recommend both attractions.

Didn't use museum voucher, was concerned where and how to convert to ticket, so went online after contacting your site and bought timed entry ticket direct from VanGogh Museum. Did enjoy cruise when I discovered we could change the voucher and board right across the street from our hotel at Museumplein location.

Canal cruise: headset in local language was good, but there was two sources of information: headset in local language + guide in english. Information from the guide was very interesting but the mix of two information channels - sometimes even overlapping - was confusing. This should be optimized.

This ticket was worth the cost. The museum was wonderful but very crowded as it was a holiday. We were able to enter immediately. The canal cruise was better than expected. The head phones allowed passengers to be informed. The boat was full and the canals busy be at of the holiday.

The museum was very impressive and very well organised. The canal Cruise was amazing. We enjoyed every minute of it, because we had it in the evening when all the lights were on, and the commentary also included a variety of information that we wouldn't have gotten otherwise.

interactive audio tour is pretty good, easy to understand. the museum ranges over 4 floors, so can be a little log winded. lots to see. only downside is the interactive audio doesn't cover all the art. quite spacious and other museums near by, such as banksy events.

Cruise very good although directions to get there poor. Van Gogh museum excellent despite bad-mannered fellow visitors (standing directly in front of pics blocking view). Don’t miss BRILLIANT Millet exhibition downstairs - plenty of Van Gogh there too.

Details

Take a spectacular one-hour cruise through the historic canal district with a visit to the world-famous Van Gogh Museum. The world's largest collection of Vincent van Gogh artwork can be found at the Van Gogh Museum. Millions of people have visited it, making it one of the Netherlands' most important museums. A thrilling boat cruise is the ideal way to conclude a fun day trip to the Van Gogh Museum.

A visit to the Van Gogh Museum, home to the world's largest collection of paintings, drawings, sketches, and letters by the well-known Dutch painter is just one half of the tour. It is the second most popular museum in the Netherlands and definitely a must-see with nearly two million visitors annually. More than 200 paintings, 400 drawings and 700 letters by the famous artist are on display at the Van Gogh Museum. Skull of a Skeleton with Burning Cigarette (1886), The Potato Eaters (1885), as well as Almond Blossoms (1890) and Sunflowers (1889) are among the collection's most well-known works.

An Amsterdam canal cruise is included in the other half of the package. An Amsterdam canal cruise is the best way to see the beautiful city center of Amsterdam, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The entertaining one-hour cruise will take you through the city's most important canals, passing magnificent churches, boat houses, mansions and bridges from the 17th century. The Magere Brug on the Amstel river, the Negen Straatjes district and the Westerkerk church are just a few of the best places to see. The cruise has a GPS guide that has an information in few languages. The boats have panoramic windows so you can see a great deal of the city.
