Van Gogh Private Guided Tour - We recently had the distinct pleasure of touring the Van Gogh Museum with our private museum guide, Geneviève. We enjoyed conversations with Geneviève as she took us on an entertaining journey through the life and magnificent works of Vincent Van Gogh, telling stories about the creation of his masterpieces and sharing tales of historical intrigue about his life. Her depth of knowledge about the artist, her personal attention to our interests, and her graceful flair as she effortlessly navigated the various groups of visitors, allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in understanding what we were seeing and absorbing the details about the artist. There is nothing like the exclusivity and full attention that a private museum guide offers. We highly recommend Geneviève of Loving Vincent Tours – you will not be disappointed!

Van Gogh musings - The allure of visiting Van Gogh's native works in in his homeland was hard to resist. I prepared myself ahead of time so I could absorb more information about the life and times of the artist. I could not have been more pleased by the depth and passion my guide had on the subject. It was a joy to have every question answered in great detail. I don't think I will ever take another kind of tour after this experience. It was an absolute joy and I plan to recommend the experience to every traveler I encounter. I may revisit it myself. Worth the money.

A terrific way to experience the Van Gogh museum - Our private tour with Genevieve at the Vincent Van Gogh Museum was fantastic. We were fascinated with the in depth history of Van Gogh’s life and analysis of his work. The tour was interactive and Genevieve did an amazing job at explaining the artwork and also drawing us in by asking us questions. Genevieve was very knowledgeable and we know we would not have had such a fulfilling experience if we had seen the museum on our own. We would definitely recommend booking this tour!
