CoupleVerified bookingLast week5/5It was a frantic rush to arrive on time for our reserved time slot. Just admiring the magnificent building that houses the museum was a treat in itself. The sun peeked through the clouds, which a warm breeze was trying to blow away. The immense lobby was packed with people, after a quick pass through the attendants checking QR codes and… even my purse! Finally, the stunning second floor: Rembrandt, Van Gogh, and above all, Vermeer… plus the Bride’s House, the Delft pottery, and the historic library. I’m overwhelmed by all this art!!!BBranka D
GroupVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5The Rijksmuseum truly impressed me. Besides the famous masterpieces, the highlight of my visit was discovering Hendrick Avercamp and his beautiful painting Winter Landscape with Skaters. I had never heard of him before, and I completely fell in love with that lively winter scene on the ice. I even regret not picking up the magnet with the painting in the museum shop. The whole museum is inspiring, well‑organized, and full of wonderful surprises — I left feeling enriched and delighted by this unexpected discovery.
Combine centuries of Dutch artistic achievement at the Rijksmuseum with the interactive brewing heritage of the Heineken Experience. Together, these two Amsterdam icons offer a well-rounded look at the country's cultural and industrial legacy.
