A great tour by an outstanding guide! - Wow! What an awesome museum tour! We spent 6 hours with the amazing Anna touring the Riijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum. She was such a pleasure to be with. We learned so much from her as she brought the paintings and artists to life for us. She is very passionate about art and made her stories so interesting, entertaining and educational. I can’t recommend her enough if you are lucky enough to have her as your guide. She is a gem who made our tour the best of our vacation.

excellent guide through two very busy museums - We had an outstanding day with our guide, Frank. He gave us lots of historical background and zoomed in on interesting artistic aspects of the various paintings. He led us through the enormous Rijksmuseum to find all the important works and also gave us very detailed information about the life of Vincent van Gogh.

Great museums and great tour guide! - Anna was a great guide! She had great stories and was very knowledgeable. She gave times for breaks if we wanted. She had earpieces so there was problem hearing her.

Great and enlightening day of Rembrandt and Van Gogh. - Diana, our guide was excellent! Clearly has studied these artists in depth and is able to communicate what she has learned to tourists who, like me, likely know little coming into to the tour. If you are doing the combo all in one, just know it is a lot of walking with about an hour for lunch. So if you have the time, you might want to break it up over 2 days. But both museums are worth the visit.

Art history - Heart string pulling artwork presented beautifully and with majesty. Our tour guide Clare was on point, well educated in art, very easy to talk to and with and even when presented engineering questions thru the images presented in the paintings had an intelligent input based on experience. Clare turned us loose for lunch but still keeping tabs via WhatsApp. My many thanks for making this come to life.
