The museum is excellent as expected. Nearly all of Van Gogh's famous work are exhibited with the exception of "Starry Night" which is in New York. The issue I had was the provider was the lack of ticket/QR code necessary to enter the museum. Instead of a quick entrance, I had to queue on a separate line in order for the museum staff to verify my reservation since I did not receive a ticket/QR code from the provider.
Confusion with jow to finally get the tixs. It said we had to pick them up a venue, which was wrong. Then I tried to find Viator booth or meeting place shown on the app. NOBODY. After several attempts, we finally found them through the app. Very confusing
Seeing the incredible art work of this master painter was awesome! I had no idea how great this guy really was.
I stupidly printed only one ticket. Lucky I could find the tickets on my phone. Viator send me the tickets several times. The audio option was worth the extra cost. My wife liked the trip.
Get the audio devices! It takes about two hours to walk through the entire museum room by room with the audio devices. It gives so much information, and it's nice to have the visual on the device versus just listening to a Tour Guide. Our two cents.
Absolutely get the audio tour- it gives you an in-depth description of the paintings. Very comprehensive history of Van Gogh’s personal life and evolution as an artist.
Avoid the crowded time. The museum was too packed to view and enjoy the artwork. People walking in front of me, bumping into me and just rudely cutting into the viewing lines.
The free audio tour was great. The art was wonderful. Brilliant colors. Tragic end to Van Gogh’s life.
What an awesome experience! Loved every minute!! The audio guide was very helpful especially for a first time visitor!
Brilliant experience and definitely recommend using the audio guide. The layout was well set out but the only thing is it is very busy so you have to sit back and take things slow waiting for a space to open up to see things.
Amazing! Informative! Inspirational! Well worth a visit, and the pricing was fair! The entire staff was incredibly helpful.
Visited the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam. Lots to see and a beautiful experience. I highly recommend seeing the collection.
Better description of where entrance to museum is would be helpful. Beyond that they made my trip to the Van Gough museum a total sucess!
We were almost turned away from the museum. The ticket voucher was not accepted by the museum. It was difficult to access the real tickets. Phone screen kept going from Trip Advisor to Viator and downloads . Finally found the tickets. It was a frustrating and embarrassing experience.
The museum itself was great.
the self guided tour was excellent! the audio guide was not included but we would highly recommend to purchase it for a small fee to enhance the experience.
Nice collection and audio tour. Very draconian about handbags of most sizes - free lockers available. Lots of Van Gogh shopping. Great location and lots to do nearby.
It was very easy to get into the museum and having an audio guide explaining every detail was very helpful. My 9 year old was very engaged and we were able to walked the whole museum. I recommend this experience very highly.
Amazing. To be able to stand that close to one of the greatest artist ever was overwhelming. I was touched on so many levels.
Lovely to see all the Van Gogh paintings. Lifts to all floors made getting around easy. Good gift shops.
Light and airy building
Went at 10:30 on a summer day. Though the museum was well run, it was too crowded to truly enjoy the experience.
Excellent experience.. this was a great place to visit. Truly a must to come with family and friends
For having a set time slot it was way to overcrowded around each painting (understandable) to fully enjoy the art work. But it was nice to see some of the original paintings done by him and his letters as well.
The museum was so well organized and easy to navigate. It brought tears to my eyes the whole time. We figured an hour but took 2 1/2! I wouldn’t pass this experience up!
Obtaining my iix and audio guide was essential to learning about VanGogh’s life and artistic journey. Very satisfied.
Lon our tour guide was very informative and had a great personality. He was entertaining and told many details. He was very nice and one of the best tours we have been on. Definitely request Lon for your guide! .
Very interesting. Go early, a lot of people. One tour lady didn’t have a headset and neither did her group. As a result she was yelling and disturbed everyone else.
Great museum - audio was good info but instructions on how to use not great. Had it on overview and not full for half museum - had to go back and catch up once I figured it out.
Kevin was our guide, he was great, he was super helpful and very friendly, we had pancakes with him at zaanse Schans. we enjoyed talking with him during our lunch. He took us to so many great spots and had interesting facts and he never hesitated when asked to take a photo. 10 out of 10. One of the best things we did while in Amsterdam
I found getting my ticket very difficult, a email came the day before with a tour guide name I didn’t know. I thought it was a spam email. At the museum my tour guide from the boat had to use her Wi-Fi, download an app to Retrieve the ticket. Without my tour guide I wouldn’t have been able to enter the Van Gogh museum.
Paintings looked so real and awesome and so real up close . Highly recommended to visit May pieces to look at.
