Gain a solid understanding of why Dutch art was flourishing in the 17th century and how Amsterdam became such a liberal city. But, it’s not only the 17th century that you will discover. Van Gogh went to the opening of the Rijksmuseum in 1885.

He was waiting for his friend, in the meantime he made a sketch of Amsterdam in oil paint. That day he went to the Rijksmuseum, left his bag with the painting in the wardrobe. Now 150 years later, the painting is back and on view!

Amazing tour for team outing with great insider tips! - With a group of 20 colleagues from work, we booked a private tour of the Rijksmuseum with Loving Vincent Tours. Our hosts, Florentine and Geneviene, were more than knowledgeable about the entire museum. They were able to truly captivate us by not just explaining the regular things. They brought the paintings to life by telling the stories behind each painting, stories about each painter and about the museum itself. In short, a great team outing with great hosts! Fully recommend for other groups. Thanks again for the amazing time! We'll be back for sure.
