What you can expect

This 2 to 2.5-hour private tour of the Rijksmuseum will take you through a selection of it’s most important pieces, putting them into context for even the most amateur art lover. We ensure a personal PRIVATE experience for each person. We’ll provide the tickets so you can skip the line and return later if you want to explore further on your own. Instead of blindly walking through the halls of Holland’s largest museum, let your guides share the stories behind each must-see work of art and artefact.

Holland’s version of the Louvre is a must, and this tour will introduce first-time visitors to the impressive and expansive collection that curates Dutch history over the centuries. For those who aren’t familiar with Dutch culture, we will explore its rich and vibrant past through a selection of paintings and artefacts from the 8000 objects on display. We’ll explore familiar names like Rembrandt while discussing lesser-known items like 17thcentury dollhouses and Vermeer’s portrait of domesticity, “The Milkmaid.” There’s even a fascinating 19thcentury library containing more stories than we could ever tell. By the end, you’ll have a good overview of the museum’s collection and you may even know how to pronounce its name correctly.

We’re more than just storytellers. Our young, passionate, and engaging guides approach touring in a different way. They will bring a personal touch to each tour, adding their own favourite anecdotes and tips along the way. They are there to listen to you, to answer your questions, and to create a dialogue – unlike other tours where they just lecture you as you go along. That’s the whole reason why we specialise in private and semi-private tours exclusively, to make sure you get the most possible out of your experience.
