Alexandra GrigoryevaOctober 18, 2023Good collection! Sunflowers… landscape… a lot of self-portraits… audio guide on russian… must to see
I adore Friday evenings with all the time excellent live music and drinks. On Friday open till 10 p.m.
Victoria CollinsAugust 24, 2014Fantastic museum, worth a look. Buy your tickets before hand (maybe a few weeks) to save time queuing.
Ersin IpekJanuary 18, 2017Great museum! But entrance procedure is suck!! (thoug you have free entrence card , you must wait at line for entreance ticket)
Felipe IglesiasSeptember 2, 2015A really good resume of Van Gogh. The only downside if we can define there's one: you can't take pictures, even without flash!
Jamie McHaleJune 20, 2016Friday nights are late opening with video projection and music. Set aside about two and a half hours to get around the collection.
California State University San MarcosMay 13, 2013The renovations are nice, although the non-museum guidebooks (which we relied on) make it difficult to go through easily. Go later in the evening to avoid the crowds, no advance tickets needed.
Pierre BruthabruxismDecember 21, 2013Some of the most inspirational and beautiful collection of art. A must see museum when in Amsterdam.
IrinaMay 16, 2013The great piece of art. Nowhere else can one find so much about Van Gogh's life and work. Must be visited. That's for sure
Rafi RomeroOctober 19, 20151. Line to get your ticket, EVEN IF YOU GOT THEM IN ADVANCE!!!! 2. Small line to enter the building. 3. Long line to drop off your backpack. 4. Same line to pick up your backpack. Needs efficiency.
Don PykeJanuary 20, 2015Just get the audio guide and take your time. No crowds whwn we were there but told it gets busy. Managed to dispell some misconceptions as well.- Don PykeJanuary 20, 2015Just get the audio guide and take your time. No crowds when we were there but told it gets busy.

Imen TurkiJanuary 5, 2015Must visit! Try to avoid the queue by making a reservation (there is a queue even with the pre sold ticket)
Misun ThompsonApril 21, 2016Loved the museum and shops. Kids loved the activity with an audio guide.
Marc TunguzApril 2, 2017Magnificent. A very rich collection of work and a lot of things to learn and feel.
Rashad HasanzadeMarch 21, 2014Buy your ticket at the museum shop in 200m from the museum (near the "I amsterdam" sign, to skip the queue).
Carl GriffinDecember 5, 2015Wonderful collection pf Van Gogh paintings and an insight into his life.
Zara KhanAugust 16, 2014The best part of my trip. Van Gogh's stunning body of work. An absolute treat.
SNOCRUJune 17, 2015Museum closes at 6pm. If you show up late in the day there are less people. Guy was a nutbag, but SO talented! #inspire #passion- Cyrielle LouiseApril 5, 2016Expensive but it's a great museum of Van Gogh's life & art. You can buy tickets online.
Lennart van NieuwenhuijzenDecember 11, 2015Love this museum. Clean and well organised. So much to learn and see.
Ritzo ten CateAugust 23, 2012Buy a 'museumjaarkaart' at another museum for 50 euro's and pass the queues. And besides you will have access to almost all Dutch musea for FREE!
Benjamin HollwayApril 28, 2017Very wide selection of Van Gogh pieces, looking forward to visiting this one again in the future.
Brian StraussJuly 28, 2022Tells his life in paintings — fantastic even with “starry night” out on loan.
C0_okieAugust 18, 2013Huuuuge line. Buy tickets online and you will get inside in 5min. Must-visit place in Amsterdam!
Jolanda H.May 28, 2016Beautiful! After a visit you became a Van Gogh expert. Good explanation of his life and work.
John 忠威 suɐɥ Dyke🐑August 31, 2014The definitive van Gough museum. Very long queues to get it. Some passes allow you to get priority access (Amsterdam Holland Pass)
Lisa ZaengleinJuly 7, 2016Beautiful works of art here. No pictures of any of his art so leave your camera behind.
Meow VinFebruary 13, 2016good way to understand the artist. enjoy the art pieces. use the audio guide.
Nick AullSeptember 1, 2017The layout of the museum is very nice. A bit crowded so try and go during the week.
Lola RhinoMay 20, 2013Get your tickets through website, loooong lines guaranteed otherwise. You also should select a certain time of your tour. That's how it works;)
Bianca BuenoMay 23, 2016You can't bring back packs into the exhibit room but they do have a counter where you can deposit your bag
Douglas M.January 6, 2016Always changing, great exhibits featuring Van Gogh and often other artists he was associated with...
David ASeptember 5, 2014Excellent museum. Get the audio tour, we'll worth it. Amazing collection of paintings.
Tina S.June 8, 2014Try to be there before 9 am with a reserved spot (works for the museum card aswell) for a just you & the art experience
Dazia PinedaSeptember 19, 2016You cannot take pics. Try to get your tickets in advance, you can bring it on your phone.
H SOctober 23, 2014Besides top 🎨 - free WiFi. On Sunday can park for free - there are 4-5 spots just along the street and no paystation..
Adriaan SchalekampApril 21, 2014Get your ticket online and arrive 10 minutes after your allotted time to miss some of the chaos.
Teodor SlavchevJune 3, 2016The most famous paintings are not here, or course, but the museum is really interesting and very well made.
Cathy ChenJune 2, 2017It's definitely useful to order your ticket online beforehand so you don't have to wait in line :)
LitaMarch 17, 2015Same as the rijksmuseum, this place is also one of my favourites along with the stedelijke museum
