The combined ticket Van Gogh Museum and the canals is a good initiative! The Museum is very good, we stayed there for two hours and it was very interesting. The audio guides are very useful to enjoy Van Gogh's life and understand his works.

5 out of 5 stars

It was much better than expected. Very relaxing but also we could see main points in an hour. I could also get a knowledge of the history of Amsterdam with an audio guide which has many languages.
