Description

During this 120-minute art tour, through the permanent collection in the Rijksmuseum, you will explore how the artists Rembrandt and Vermeer captured the incredible expansion of the Dutch Golden Age. See the people, the objects, and the paintings that define this unprecedented era of Dutch history, and explore how the art reflects the changing values and beliefs of the republic. Meet your guide at the Cobra Cafe at Museumplein. Right at the starting time of the tour, the guide will enter the museum with the group. People who are late will unfortunately loose their ticket, as the museum works with strict timeslots. After the 2-hour guided tour inside the Rijksmuseum, you can stay as long as you wish, relax at the cafe or continuing appreciating the work of arts.

Great Tour with Gosse

Gosse was very passionate and very knowledgeable about the art in the museum, he helped us appreciate and understand the art and the relevance to the Dutch history. Two hours went by very quickly and his tour was definitely a highlight of our trip. Would highly recommend.

Back in time with the Dutch masters

Martina, our guide, was amazing and really brought the art to life. She has a wonderful knowledge of Rembrandt, other Dutch masters and the history and architecture of the museum. We never would have had this intimate an understanding of the world of Dutch art if we hadn’t met Martina. Highly recommended, thank you so much!

Informative and awe-inspiring

Guide Clare was very informative and was obviously expert in her knowledge of the Dutch masters. Time flew by and we only scratched the surface of this spectacular museum.

More time needed

To plan more time exploring on your own. Too much time spent talking outside the museum plus waiting for others who were late...no fault of the Guides
