Perfect bite sized tour

Fantastic 2 hour private tour. The pace and contact were perfect, unlocking some art history and the history of this beautiful building for us. Would definitely recommend. 2 hours enriched us but it did not overwhelm.

Great introduction to the Rijksmuseum

Our tour was easy to find. The guide was informative. Having audiotapes allowed us to be able to move around and still hear all the information. The tour made good use of our time to help guide us through the second floor without becoming overwhelmed.
