We had a good time and a great idea on a rainy day. You will learn so much about his life and quest to develop a new style painting. You will get an incredibly detailed look at his life and his work. This was the most complete Van Gogh exhibit we have every experienced.

    A day at Van Gogh Museum !

    Darlene_F, Aug 2026
    It was a great experience. We had the self guided tour which we paid in advance. If you did not you would need to pay for the audio equipment at the museum. The self guided y Tour was very easy to navigate. It’s crowded but you can’t get lost. We learned a lot about Van Gough life. To see the art collection up and close was amazing! The gift shops are great. Make sure you bring money for souvenirs!

    Highly Recommend

    Belinda_N, Aug 2026
    Highly recommend!! A beautiful museum. One note though - we paid extra for the audio guide. Even though we chose to do the extensive audio guide tour, the extra money was not worth the audio guide. Most of what's on the audio guide tour is already written on the walls. There's no need to pay extra for the audio guide tour. Aside from that, the experience was absolutely perfect. We love Van Gogh.

    The tickets worked well in conjunction with the audio tour. Brilliant artist! The audio portion enhanced the experience and allowed us to browse at our own pace.

    The audio guide was very helpful and the artwork was amazing. I would definitely recommend this tour. Do not go to Amsterdam without visiting the Van Gogh museum.

    Great experience.

    Rick_R, Jul 2026
    Can get crowded so buy ticket ahead of time. Take your time and recommend the audio tour. Can go at your own pace.

    You can bring your own USB-C to aux cable to connect to the audio device if you don’t want to use their headphones. Tour gave excellent context to his life and the inspiration for his paintings. We did the standard tour.

    Museum great - Viator was an issue

    Peter_H, Jul 2026
    The Van Gogh museum was awesome. It took about 2 hours to do it justice. Unfortunately the Viator tickets were an issue - they kept saying we would re give an email with our tickets the day before but we never did. Then it said to show the museum our Viator purchase and they would provide the tickets. The museum told us it was a scam. Ends up the tickets were there but only after you clicked on "Contact Ticket Provider" which is not intuitive.

    A must

    Nicholas_C, Jul 2026
    A heartfelt journey through the life of a master artist. A comprehensive and extensive collection of van Gogh work

    Van Gogh!!!

    Hilary_L, Jul 2026
    The tour was great! Very informative and the art was stunning. I did not know I need to download the Viator app to show my ticket. So make sure you do this so you are ready to go.

    Messy Website

    Georgina_K, Jun 2026
    Do not use Viator, it's messy and complicated. All that's required given the choice of day/time etc. is the ability to print off tickets. This was not provided. Not everyone has a mobile phone.

    Van Gogh’s art and life

    Melon_C, Jun 2026
    I’ve been to Van Gogh exhibits before but this one is different. It’s not just about his art but his life. I opted for the audio tour and found it to be very informative. I’d recommend booking tickets at least a week ahead. It was super crowded but the museum is spacious with lots of sitting room and also several cafes. There are also free lockers available to store bulky bags, etc.

    Charged but tickets no good

    Janet_L, Jun 2026
    Purchase 2 tickets and Viator sold them to us, charged our card twice and the museum didn’t except because they were sold out. One refund was processed the other was not. We do want a refund.

    Don't use Viator!!!!

    Mark_M, May 2026
    Our experience with Viator was awful. The ticket taker said we needed a child's ticket even though they were free and you did not provide the ticket which caused many issues

    Lynn_J, May 2026
    set the audio guide to extended then take your time absorbing his story and the beautiful paintings.

    Wonderful works of art

    Gregory_P, May 2026
    Just enjoy the paintings and take your time. So much to see and listen to with your audio or guide .

    This was easy to access and worthwhile, the self tour allows you to take in the art and full experience.

    Get your tickets at the museum website instead.

    Joseph_P, May 2026
    My tickets never showed up. I got a voucher but it did not convert to ticket when I used the “Get tickets” link in my email. I stayed in Amsterdam an extra day with hotel expenses and walked 2 miles for this and never got in. Viator was unhelpful with the predicament. They refunded my money but I never received any explanation or apology. The museum strongly dislikes viator because this happens frequently.

    Viaje familiar

    Montse_L, Aug 2026
    Nos ha gustado mucho, todo muy bien organizado. Hay cafetería y comida en el Interior. Muchas de las obras de Van Gogh están en la exposición.

    Jaime_S, Jul 2026
    Excellent decision. All the apps said there were no tickets, but here on Viator there were. The best part is they arrive directly to your phone without needing to go around looking for someone to hand them to you like happens on other apps.

    Exciting journey.

    Karin_W, Jul 2026
    Enough time to visit the museum. History and works of Van Gogh. With audio, you receive a variety of information.

    The Van Gogh Museum is absolutely worth seeing, booked with Viator because there were no more spots available on the official channels. The ticket arrives via email.

    Orsini_D, May 2026
    Very pleasant museum to visit I also appreciated the possibility of getting a last-minute ticket, even though the museum was fully booked, although I had to pay more for it Be careful when booking; you receive a voucher and not a ticket, so make sure the provider sends the ticket before the activity starts,
