    Learned so much about the life of Van Gogh. Sunflowers is probably the most famous painting here.

    DO NOT TAKE THE RESERVATION FOR 5 O'CLOCK !! You wouldn't have the time to do the whole visit : the museum closes at 6 and the audio visit takes at least one hour and a half...

    Excellent audio guides, but the museum's layout lacks any feeling of intimacy.

    Amazing! If you want to learn about Van Gogh's life and want to see his famous paintings, you should pay a visit!

    But 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.

    Dictation 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!!!

    Bit 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.

    I 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!!!

    You can't recreate these genious strokes on photo - the pictures almost come alive when you see them in person

    An obvious choice. Get the museumkart if you're going to do more than 1 museum, it let's you skip the line.

    If you're too loud, you might get an earful from the Van Gogh museum guards.

    Your new queueing system is the worst. I hold a museumkaart and I've been queueing for over 30 minutes, what's then the benefit of having tickets or musumkaart in advance?

    Pre-buy your tickets from their online website! It will save you queuing for over an hour.

    A 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.
