Essie WareMarch 12, 2018unique museum, liked the paintings, many people, nice products in the two shops
Sandra RielaMarch 30, 2016Learned so much about the life of Van Gogh. Sunflowers is probably the most famous painting here.
Pınar Özz👣👣January 31, 2015A great collection of Van Gogh's paintings, drawings, letters and photos! Worth seeing:)
Elena EfimonaMay 6, 2017You can't pay with card in the cafe if the card was issued in Spain. And there's no ATM inside. This is really disturbing
Renato FernandesJanuary 23, 2012Amazing! If you want to learn about Van Gogh's life and want to see his famous paintings, you should pay a visit!
Michal KruntorádMay 17, 2014Must-see! Long waiting ques though... come here arround 5PM if you dont have preordered ticket and you will get in fast.
Brian DammeirAugust 21, 2016Excellent audio guides, but the museum's layout lacks any feeling of intimacy.
Joe BayehFebruary 27, 2012Dictation mistakes in their English signs. I detected two so far. First sign on first floor of the exhibition and again on the second floor. It's a shame!!!
Brandon SmithMarch 5, 2015If you're too loud, you might get an earful from the Van Gogh museum guards.
Volodymyr MelymukaDecember 2, 2016Grab audio-tour, it's cheap and very interesting. And free for kids
Rafi SyedJune 19, 2012An obvious choice. Get the museumkart if you're going to do more than 1 museum, it let's you skip the line.
Bora DemiralanAugust 10, 2016I didn't come here to read how was his mental situation. But the museum is excellent:-)
- Tim BoelaarsJanuary 20, 2016Love this museum. My favorite paining must be Starry Night over the Rhone.
Erkan KilitciSeptember 25, 2015Try to go early to avoid the queue. 1,5 hours required for a joyful tour
Fiona DavyApril 4, 2012Bit crowded but totally worth it to see VG's work close up. Some of his best work was done in last year of his life, so sad.
Hosang YuAugust 8, 2014But once you leave your bag in cloak room, many people rushed into and hang over the night bar with live DJ music. So exposition hall is less terrible than other places.
Elif ErcanApril 22, 2014It is a must to buy the tickets from their web site, to avoid long waiting times!
Eldar YusupovJune 13, 2014You can't recreate these genious strokes on photo - the pictures almost come alive when you see them in person
Michael ReeveOctober 22, 2014Moving to a new site in 2015. Until then, book in advance (or get there for 9am) to avoid queueing to get in. Audio guide is one of the worst I've ever paid for (€5 to hear about 20 paintings).
Small place with a lot of magic! Van Gogh vibes at max
Adam TurkingtonJuly 23, 2013I have a tip. Stop taking photos of every single picture you fucking morons. Are you going to look at them ALL every night before bed or something!!!
Kay OehlerJuly 6, 2018A very large collection of Van Gogh's works, but even with a timed entry system there are far too many people inside at once. Go to Rijksmuseum or Rembrandt House museum instead.
Sam SaundersSeptember 10, 2013Buy a ticket from any of the hotels in the area and skip all the lines. Awesome.
Jamil AhmedMay 5, 2015Pre-buy your tickets from their online website! It will save you queuing for over an hour.
Kathy CJSeptember 19, 2014Incredible example I of what a focused genius can accomplished in 10 years !
Melissa CogsSeptember 19, 2014Be sure to buy tickets online first and skip the huge line of people waiting!!!
