We had a great tour…Claire was extremely knowledgeable and so delightful…she was engaging, personable, and interactive with group members. The tour was two hours long, and we were sorry to have it end!
Yiwen gave an informative and entertaining tour for our small group.
Yiwen did a great job. Great tour.
Our guide Claire was fantastic very knowledgeable made the tour interesting and the two hours wizzed by. Could have had another 2 hours with Claire. Highly recommend
With Martina. Just a superb, friendly, fully authoritative guide, the length of which could never be replicated by anything recorded. Superb.
Yiwen was a thorough tour guide who provided information on the Golden Age in the Netherlands in relation to both art and culture. Totally enjoyable.
Martina was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of information about the museum and artist. Enjoyed the tour very much
This is the first time I have arranged for a guided tour of a museum, and I am very glad I did. It was a great experience focusing on Dutch art and history. Wybe was a fantastic guide, and he was patient as he led a group of the six people through a very crowded museum. This is a very large museum, and we only were able to do the paintings on the second floor, but they were the main ones of the Dutch masters. One would have to spend a couple of extra days in this museum to see something of their vast collections. With a guide, we were able to see incredible details that we would have missed if only using a guidebook such as a sculpture of the building Architect high on the outside of the building, or where artists put themselves into certain paintings. Wybe brought the history of the Netherlands to life, from the room focusing on Naval history to the lives of the individuals in the portraits. Remember, in the absence of photography, if you had your Portrait made you must have been important so every painting has a story behind it. Highly recommended tour.
Fantastic experience. I have been many times on my and felt overwhelmed by the shear volume of art. Robin was knowledgeable about the works and presented them in a manner that made the evolution of Dutch artists noticed. Highly recommend
Being honest I had a limited appreciation of the Dutch masters. Robin, our tour guide, was exceptional. He thoroughly and eloquently explained the history and setting of how the artisan community developed in Amsterdam. He touched all the highlights and a few extra surprises. I learned and retained a tremendous amount on this tour and have a new appreciation for Dutch paintings (outside of Van Gogh).
Very informative and valuable tour. Gave context and helpful visual aids to deepen our enjoyment of the art pieces that we visited. Would highly recommend.
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, pleasant and numerous. Recommend a tour instead of trying to navigate this enormous venue on your own. Hearing the stories and history will greatly enhance your experience.
Great presentation and tour by Martina! Nice details and history about the paintings. Thank you!
Took a girls trip to AMS and Martina led us through in a way that matched our vibe. She is very thorough and moved us through the high point at a perfect pace. Tip: Be sure to double check your arrival time vs the tour time. We arrived at the start but missed that we were supposed to arrive earlier for check in. Whoops! Sorry Martina!
Yiwen was amazing! It was such an insightful experience. Highly recommend for people that would like to know the highlights and history of the artist and their art pieces.
Delightful. Our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the paintings, and expert at steering us through the crowds to see the most famous masterpieces. We had a little trouble finding each other at the meeting place because of weather, but once the tour we realized how lucky we were with our guide. And of course the art is fantastic!
The tour with Martina was great. Small group. Easy to hear her with the listening device communicators. English was excellent. Very very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs.
We had a great tour guide - Gosse. He was very thorough and waited to all members to get to a place before he started talking. He had lots of supporting material to add to what was in the museum.
Martina guided our small group through the Rijksmuseum. She was friendly and accommodating. Her knowledge of the museum artefacts and paintings is exceptional; she is able to meaningfully bring to life Dutch history, the artists who produced the works displayed and the symbolism they present. I highly recommend this tour.
The tour itself was great period frustrated that I missed the communication about change of tour time for morning to afternoon period not used to using WeChat and would have expected it to come via text or email
Giovanni was an excellent guide! My husband and I went on the Oct 14th tour at 9:30am. Giovanni was very passionate about art and helped to keep the small group together. He was very knowledgeable and navigated the museum well. We learned a lot about the Dutch masters and the restoration of the Night Watch painting. We would recommend Giovanni to other visitors. Lovely museum.
Great location and Robyn was a charming and terrific guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and knew how to keep us interested and focused.
Wonderful tour and knowledgeable guide. Highly recommend.
Guide very knowledgeable of art and art history. Very professional and easy to understand. Highly recommend.
The tour was exactly what we wanted. Elsa did a wonderful job of highlighting the Dutch masters throughout the galleries. She was insightful about the history of the artwork and the artists. She went above and beyond to ensure we had an educational cultural experience.
Martina S. was an outstanding guide. Incredible depth of knowledge about artistic technique, as well as artifacts from the 1600s, which is the area we explored. We recommend Martina without hesitation!
Robin was a first class tour guide that is very passionate and informative. If you want an educational and well planned tour that is prompt and thoughtfully presented, Robin is your guy.
I can't say enough about my guide. She was brilliant. I learned more about art during this tour than in my whole life. The museum would have been overwhelming without her.
Elsa was outstanding. Very knowledgeable. Patient with questions. Punctual. She was wonderful.
The guide was very knowledgeable. I liked that he was an artist himself so he spoke a lot about the techniques used and what is known about the artists. The only other feedback is that I wish we had seen even more of the art within the museum. The passes we were given would have allowed us to stay longer but timing for staying longer didn’t work for us.
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and approachable.
It was great, very informative, The guide was easy to understand and very patient with people from different areas of the world.
An excellent way to see the highlights of the museum. Robin made it very interesting.
Fantastic 2 hour private tour. The pace and contact were perfect, unlocking some art history and the history of this beautiful building for us. Would definitely recommend. 2 hours enriched us but it did not overwhelm.
Our tour was easy to find. The guide was informative. Having audiotapes allowed us to be able to move around and still hear all the information. The tour made good use of our time to help guide us through the second floor without becoming overwhelmed.
Guide had unbelievable knowledge and passion for the artists and their works. Detailed description of everything !
Giovanni was great - very knowledgeable and informative and highlighted many things about Amsterdam and the art we looked at.
Outstanding tour. Gosse was an amazing guide. We really enjoyed our time
Ask for Sacha if you go to the Rijksmuseum.
Kirby was amazing. I visited the museum last year and did the audio. This time I wanted to visit again because I felt I did not learn much, so I decided to go with Viator. I absolutely loved it and really learned a lot. I would highly recommend
Clare was fabulous as our guide / she made the art come to life She gave so much background on Rembrandt’s Night Watch / I will look at art very differently and more curios than ever before!
Martina brought this remarkable museum to life. She has extraordinary knowledge and draws the members of the tour into each moment. Highly recommend!
Martina S. Great guide and informative.
