Meet your English-speaking guide just Across from the Rikjsmuseum to begin this intimate private tour. Sail past the Van Gogh Museum's main entrance lines with a priority-access ticket and explore the museum's highlights with exclusive attention from your guide. As you make your way through the world’s biggest Vincent van Gogh art collection, your guide leads you through the artist's darkest, initial Dutch paintings to his more vibrant French period. Study iconic van Gogh works like Sunflowers, as well as his lesser-known paintings and drawings. Hear about van Gogh’s troubled life and artistic styles, and see famous pieces from renowned fellow artists like Gauguin, Monet and others who inspired the mad genius. Your private tour concludes at 3pm but your entrance ticket is valid all day, so you may continue to explore the museum at your leisure.

Animated & informative
Our guide Klaus was full of information & enthusiasm for VanGogh. More like a short art history class than a guided tour.

Great tour!
Pedro did an amazing job of making the museum come alive. He really gave us the background and understanding regarding Van Gogh the individual as well as the family’s roles in bringing his art to the world.

Paid but never received tickets.
I paid and they sent an email saying that I should download tickets but there were no tickets. Impossible to contact anyone for help.
