Private Guided Tour Rijksmuseum

Our guide only covered the second floor which focused on the Dutch masters but she knew her history very well which added to the art. She spoke English very well but with a heavy French accent so at times we had to ask her to repeat what she said. All in all we spent 2 hours with her and at least another hour on our own after our guided tour was over. The Rijksmuseum is wonderful!!

Private tour of the Rijksmuseum

Wybe Jan was a brilliant tour guide, who brought to life the superb art at the Rijksmuseum. Well worth doing.

Rembrandt, Vermeer Highlighted

Goose made the tour extremely interesting with his knowledge of the artists and the history of the times. Wouldn’t consider viditing the museum without having an excellent tour guide as you would be overwhelmed.
