Full description

This tour covers Amsterdam’s two headline museums with one guide. In the morning, the Rijksmuseum’s Gallery of Honour brings you face to face with The Night Watch, Vermeer’s quiet interiors and the painters of the Golden Age.

After a break, cross Museumplein to the Van Gogh Museum, where your guide traces Vincent’s work from dark early studies to the sunflowers and the late landscapes. The group stays small, so you can hear well and ask questions.
