The day will begin at the Rijksmuseum, Holland’s answer to the Louvre, where you’ll plunge into Dutch history and art through the 8,000 pieces on display. Your guide will take you through iconic paintings from the likes of Rembrandt and Vermeer and more obscure pieces like the collection of 17th century dollhouses. By the end, we guarantee that you’ll have a more comprehensive understanding of Dutch art history, even if you still can’t say the name of the museum correctly!
After lunch, we’ll move the party outside and you’ll learn how a 12th century fishing village turned into one of the world’s most beloved cities. You’ll walk over the city’s iconic bridges and canals, gaze at its quiet courtyards and get a crash course in its unique architecture.

While the small group tour is expensive, Angelo made it well more than worthwhile. His base of knowledge in the art field was outstanding! He overextended himself by providing a great amount of background information, supported by extensive pictures on his iPad, about various artists and their individual works. He easily handled questions from several guests who had a great deal of knowledge about various art ages. artists and there relation with each other. We highly recomend this tour. Be prepared to be overwhelmed.
We were a group of only three and had a great time. I never felt rushed or overwhelmed, as I often can at galleries or museums, and learned a lot. We saw all that we’d hoped to and Audrey is so knowledgeable. She has a gentle manner, and we all loved spending the morning with her. Thanks Audrey!
We had a great tour with Angelo. I cannot believe wee able to see everything that we did. He made it all come alive.
Our tour guide Angelo was informative, high energy and brought the museum stories to life! He shared interesting details you would not get without the tour. Highly recommend!!
Josephine was excellent. So knowledgeable. Added to our enjoyment of the Museum. We did skip the line, not necessary today.
