Rijksmuseum Tours

A reminder from the Company early in the morning, thankfully we were well organised and aware of the bookings, however an ideal reminder and gratefully received. To begin we walked to the Rijksmuseum, presented our on line booking forms, scanned and in we went. The floors are divided into particular eras, extremely well laid out with either stair or lift access and well signed. Some beautiful Work’s of art on display by famous and less well known artists, mostly by Dutch painters, but works by other nationalities also on display. Definitely a must visit whilst in Amsterdam

The guide, i am not sure his name.. and Italian.. was excellent.. He not only knew a great deal about the paintings and the history, but he was friendly and helpful. By the time i got to the Van Gogh museum i could no longer walk. He got me a wheelchair and pushed me all through the museum. He helped us on the elevators and finding the facilities. He was the best. peace, Harriet

Even though we bought 9am tickets to the Museum, they still let us in an hour and a half later. It took us quite a bit of time to figure out the city transportation, but definitely worth it. The canal cruise was average. You sit very low in the boat and your view is limited. The windows were not clean and no refreshments. The captain was pretty good at supplementing the pre-recorded guide. Overall, very interesting, but I would go for a separate cruise. And get it early, as the dinner cruise I wanted sold out!

Paola was a knowledgeable and pleasant guide. While exploring the museum, I also learned much about the paintings and history of Amsterdam. One of the best guides I've had in the man cities I've visited.
