One of the best collection of art in Europe. And the most interesting and beautiful museum in Amsterdam.
FaisalFebruary 11, 2020Great parts about the Netherlands history I learned from the arts in this great museum.
Risiana LevieJanuary 6, 2015Beautiful museum! Must visit in Amsterdam! Try to go on weekdays (mon-thurs) so it's not too busy!
No4emi GVJanuary 5, 2018It’s really big and the building itself is beautiful. There are many important art pieces to see but the price is a bit high.
Elvira PouwAugust 17, 2014Best museum in town. Wonder around and get inspired by all the beautiful artwork.
emreNovember 26, 2014One of the most important museum of the amsterdam. You can see beautiful art of rembrandt and vermeer
Mykolas PetrauskasJuly 23, 2015Beautiful arts museum! Get the tickets inside the museum and avoid long lines at the ticket stand outside
Michelle D.March 2, 2015Rembrandt is great but don't neglect the Vermeer offerings on same floor. Only 35 paintings in existence by him and several are here - best part of the museum? Maybe.
Salwan FinjJuly 31, 2017Amazing building with amazing art and history... check the library that's upstairs it's epic!
Domnule ObzenJuly 9, 2015Great museum. You can visit everything in one day. Never compare a museum to the Louvre. Please.
Thomas MeijerAugust 31, 2014Get yourself a Museum Jaarkaart if you wanna visit the three big museums here! This museum is definately worth a visit!
Vincent FarcotMay 7, 2016Apart from the obvious pieces you'll find in there, the entrance hall's architecture is really worth a good long look!
Fabiano WaewellNovember 4, 2018One of the very best museums I’ve ever been. Audio guide is very good!
Chet ManciniSeptember 2, 2014Go to the Night Watch just before closing. The crowds will have dispersed and you'll have 15 minutes of quiet to soak in the beauty.
RoxannaJune 15, 2013Building itself is just as spectacular as the priceless treasures inside. Night Watch & Van Gogh self portrait are must sees but so are Doll Houses & Ship models- Simon TanSeptember 16, 2016Really good variety of displays - expect to spend upwards of 3 hours here
Essie WareMarch 12, 2018one of the most famous museums in the world, avoid queues by going there in the afternoon or in off-season
Panos PapadopoulosApril 28, 2013Amazing museum. Avoid on Saturdays. It gets extremely crowded and noisier than a soccer game.
Céline IbeJanuary 25, 2015Buy your tickets online to avoid long queues. Rembrandt is a must see here! Enjoy the museum 😊
LitaMarch 13, 2015I love this place. Whenever I had a bad mood, I went here. I always found joy here
Juho KilkkuJune 25, 2013You can find high quality photos of many of the paintings online so photographing them might not provide any added value to your visit. Just enjoy the art.
I can't think of a more beautiful museum in the Netherlands than the Rijksmuseum. It's a must visit.
Volkan OkesliOctober 8, 2017It’s Rijks - of course you expect a lot and yes it worths... You need min 3h for a decent tour! Do not skip the library inside 📚
Jessica FergusonApril 14, 2013Get there early, it is a huge museum and you will need almost all day to get through it. Also bring a water bottle, there are no water fountains
DrorFebruary 5, 2017Buy tickets in advance otherwise you might wait a bit. You have 2 wee coffee spots other then the main café.
Óscar BalcázarJanuary 3, 2014If you purchase your ticket for not making the line you still have to make it with those that do not have to make the line. It was longer by the way than those that did not purchase the ticket before
Gallery 2.10 features Brazilian landscapes and the city of Olinda, occupied by the Dutch in the 1600's
Irina GrabinaFebruary 22, 2015Download the same mobile app Rijksmuseum like audio guide and you will not need to pay for the last one. Free wi-fi
Amir NoymanOctober 15, 2016Amazing museum take a whole day to see everything but definitely don't miss it!!
Pauliina ÅdahlDecember 22, 2014There is a looooong queue for the garderobe. Instead of waiting, go to downstairs where there is another smaller one. No waiting needed. And buy the e-ticket, avoid waiting for the tickets too. :)
Jamie KenyonMay 27, 2015Free wifi and a free audio tour app is a great way to explore, but if using your own phone, bring headphones!
Tatha SaragihOctober 28, 2014You will need the whole day (or more) to explore what they have lovely curated inside. Ps: You can also get your Museumkaart here!- Emilia FlockhartNovember 25, 2013The cloakroom is free and really efficient. Much more enjoyable to walk around the museum without lugging a coat and bag :-)
Yasmina AladdinSeptember 6, 2016Audio guide is a must! And if u dnt have time choose only the highlights which is about 90 minutes
Constanza Kurman PetrozzelliAugust 26, 2013The renovation was worth the wait! Staff and security guards are extremely nice (no flash photography!). Only thing is they announce an Yves Saint Laurent dress which I did not see..
Emre KMarch 6, 2016Not only to learn about Dutch culture but also learn for other nations' cultures. It is one of a kind.
fantastic golden age dutch art and a good cafe...get tix ahead of time if possible
Dee ✨November 7, 2015Today was museum night, 18.50€ you get to walk in & out in all 50 museums. Worth it!
Andrey MagazinovFebruary 6, 2014There is an iOS app with guided tours for this museum. And a free wifi inside!
Simon SaintMarch 21, 2015Get here early and buy tickets online, they can scan your phone so you don't have to print them!
