Amsterdam: Rijksmuseum Entry Ticket

Amsterdam: Rijksmuseum Entry Ticket

The Rijksmuseum's internationally revered collection features some of the nation’s most famous works, including historic art by Rembrandt, Frans Hals, Van Gogh, and others. Visitors can admire Rembrandt’s ‘The Night Watch’, which takes pride of place in a beautifully lit hall allowing visitors to enjoy every tiny detail. Learn more about the history of the Netherlands in one of the worlds' most famous museums. Gaze also upon 'The Jewish Bride'. This last painting reduced Vincent van Gogh to tears who, upon visiting the Rijksmuseum shortly after it opened, wrote in a letter that he would gladly give up ten years of his life to sit in front of the painting for two weeks, eating only a stale crust of bread. Visitors can expect much more than just paintings by Dutch Masters from the Golden Age. The Rijksmuseum’s expansive, evocative collection also includes Delftware, sculptures, archaeological artifacts, clothing, Asian art, prints, items from Dutch maritime history, and many other culturally significant objects, all combining to vividly retell 800 years of Dutch history within a global context. And naturally, the collection isn't frozen in time – new items such as a Mondrian-inspired dress by Yves Saint Laurent dating from 1965 can also be seen. The largest research and restoration project ever for 'The Night Watch' has started. This is happening live in the museum and you can be part of it and support the project with a donation.

5 out of 5 stars

Really interesting and Amsterdam is perfect for a bike tour. It’s nice to be going around a bike friendly place and stopping at various stops to find out something interesting. I did a boat tour the day before and I didn’t feel like I saw as much of Amsterdam on that and heard as much.

5 out of 5 stars

We ended up on a different cruise to planned due to the absolutely obnoxious American children on our original vessel. Thank you to the staff who moved us and about 4 other couples away from them. We really enjoyed our time!
