Stunning! Rembrandt, Vermeer, Hals. What a feast! - Fluer was a terrific guide. We got an enthusiastic and interesting introduction to early Danish art before we feasted on Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Hals. She also described the history of the museum including the ten-year recent renovation. A spectacular experience we couldn’t have had without Fluer.

Memorable tour - Anna was an absolute delight and made our Rijksmuseum tour one to remember! She somehow made centuries-old paintings feel fresh, funny, and fascinating. Her storytelling was top-notch, full of historical tidbits and observations. If you're headed to the Rijksmuseum, do yourself a favor and take Anna’s tour.

Awesome Tour - Tea was an absolutely amazing guide. If I remember correctly, she has a degree in art history. On the tour, she also educated us about the history of the building and the Dutch culture along with insights on the highlights of the Dutch masters. My husband and I were very impressed with her presentation. Based on her presentation, we also went to the Rembrandt house.

Excellent Tour of the Rijksmuseum - The Rijksmuseum was fascinating. Our guide, Diana, took us through the museum from the Middle Ages through the great masters and explained the progression of art and the reasons they occurred which made our visit much more memorable. Our tour also allowed us to skip the entrance line and enter the museum without waiting which is a huge plus!!! Highly recommend this tour for families!!!

Rijksmuseum highlights - I was the only one on my tour today so Ewald made it more of a conversation than a guided tour which was great. We visited a few pictures of many artists and he provided detailed insights into each including stories, history, and symbolism. It made for a fantastic and personalized visit.
