Van Gogh & Rembrandt + Rijksmuseum

Good couple of hours worth

very enjoyable and informative couple of hours, not only paintings but interesting history too, learned lots I didn't know about the colonial past of the Netherlands

Excellent!

We booked tickets on a rainy day and are glad we went to this museum. It was fabulous to see so many beautiful pieces of art work and the restoration process going on with the Night Watch painting. Seeing the beautiful library was incredible. Remember to be quiet as you enter the area. The doll house collection is incredible with the details in each room. Highly recommend this museum if you get the chance. They have a nice gift shop in the museum area too.

Family tour was so much fun!

We booked the private family tour, and Hugo was absolutely amazing with my kids (ages 10 and 8). It was fun and interactive. We all learned so much, and he kept my kids engaged for a solid 1.5 hours in the museum, which is no easy feat. If you have kids, I highly recommend booking the family tour through the museum (far far in advance). And of course, it is a lovely museum with fabulous art and history to learn!

Must see in Amsterdam: Rijksmuseum

It was incredible to see so many paintings by world's best painters. Nearly too much for one visit, have to go again! An experience that nobody should miss.

A beautiful museum with many works.

A very richly endowed museum with extraordinary collections spanning several centuries of the history of Amsterdam, the Netherlands and the former colonies. The building itself is superb. You will need at least half a day to appreciate the works on the museum's four levels. Visit at opening time to fully appreciate the paintings, sculptures and objects.

Artists amsterdam

Great location and large number of famous paintings. Great way to spend an afternoon. Very busy but easy to get to by bus..

Great time at the museum - Rijksmuseum

My mother & I love to travel but we are not keen on visiting museums. Netherlands has a lot of museums, so we decided to pick the ones we wanted to really see. Rijksmuseum was one that we got interested in after going through their website. We reached out to check if we could rent wheelchair & their response was no because wheelchairs are free to borrow! We thought we would spend about an hour or little over but we spent over three hours! There is so much to see. My mother loved the different tea/teapot collection, the ceramics, the locks & keys collection & I just loved how spacious it was. The staff are friendly & more than happy to guide you so you have the best time ever in a museum.

Stunning building and works of art

Fabulous building full of treasures. It was great to be able to see the Surhc master work up close and a particular highlight to see the restoration work in Rembrandts Night Watch. Also fascinating were the miniature doll houses and the replica sailing ship. Well worth a visit!

A very large museum with lovely architecture.

The architecture is impressive and building is huge. Lots of exhibits and a very large area to cover. We selected the 9 am 1st lot and arrived early and was first in queue. Signage was not very clear where the entrances are. It is at a passageway that runs through the building. There is more than 1 entrance there. It was good to appreciate the paintings and exhibits in the first hour but the place began to fill up with visitors quite fast. Honestly, the museum is extremely big and one can take hours to slowly cover all the exhibits, depending on one’s interest. Allocate more time if you enjoy checking out all the exhibits. Tickets can be booked from the museum’s own website or from third parties. Download the app for free commentary about every exhibit. Need to use ear phones.

Majestic exhibition, even too big

This museum is so big and its collections are so diverse that they would probably benefit from being split. People who are interested in Rembrandt's painting do not necessarily want to know about eastern art and/or american photography (and vice versa). That said, all the works are so well classified that one doesn't need an audio guide (thus saving 6,50€). The biggest flaw of the main exhibition is how Rembrandt's masterpiece "The Night Watch" is exposed (i.e. behind a thick reflecting glass which prevents taking good pictures). Still a very good museum, mind you.

Put it on your Museum list.

Yep back after 20 years. Utilised Amsterdam card. Long queues outside. The wait was worth it. The redevelopment of the museum "wow". Only critism is poor signposting to lifts. After traveling early from Liverpool ability to do stairs was limited. The restaurant especially the new cake celebrating 750th anniversary of Amsterdam beautiful. The gift shop very expensive is only real negative.

Well woth visiting!

Wow...I wish I had more time. Allow a minimum of 2 hours...we stayed for 3 hours and saw about 70%. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Get the app and bring earbuds for a free 'tour.' Select paintings will have a number that you key into your app to get a deeper dive into the art you are viewing. By no means am I an art connoisseur, but this was a great museum.

A must for art lovers

An absolute myriad of paintings dating back to the 17th century. We got in for free on the Go City pass. Surprised by the fact that it was possible to go right up to each painting and take pictures. It’s possible to spend hours there. There’s a nice cafe so you can take a break at any time. Also a nice garden outside and a fun fountain you can get into the middle of.

Lovely Museum!

We loved our afternoon in this museum. I was not prepared for the sheer beauty of its paintings, Delft, doll houses and models! We certainly appreciate art but to think I could have missed this bothers me! There was a King’s Day crowd as we were there Friday before its official Saturday celebration and Amsterdam was crazy. Make sure this is on your list of must-do’s in Amsterdam. Lots of good help finding what we needed and kind people to help you!

Great Museum

Very impressive museum. Only drawback was a lack of signs indicating elevators and stairs. Large display of many great Dutch artists as well as ceramics, military guns, swords, ship models, etc.

Impressive and extensive museum

The Rijksmuseum is an impressive and extensive museum with a lot to see. From Dutch Masters like Rembrandt and Vermeer to an array of historical artifacts and beautifully curated exhibitions, the collection is both rich and varied. It's very well organized and presented, making the visit enjoyable and informative. You should definitely plan ahead and reserve enough time to explore everything — there's so much to take in that a quick visit wouldn't do it justice. Overall, a fantastic experience and a must-see if you're in Amsterdam.

Amazing museum!

We spent 4 hours visiting the museum from the bottom to the top floor and had a breakfast break in the museum's coffee shop, which serves plenty of delicious options. The museum itself is quite impressive, and the artwork is mesmerizing. The best part is the mobile app, created by the museum, which gives you free audio and visual tour, helps you navigate this massive museum with ease and learn more about selected paintings through the audio stories narrated in the app. Mandatory to book tickets in advance, online, the entrance gets sold out easily if you don't reserve your slot. Fabulous experience, highly recommended!

Great art museum

Great art museum. Very large. Plan a lot of time to get through everything. Expect crowds. Lots of great painting from artists like Van Gough and Goya. Well worth seeing. Make reservations ahead of time.

Ok

Nice but way too much to see and when the tour groups turn up…..good luck. The app tour guide is good but not many options to hear

A wealth of information

The museum came recommended to us and it was not hard to see why. We were not prepared for the size of it and the number of paintings by Dutch masters. Not being heavily into art, we chose to pay for the audio guides to add some flesh at what we were looking at, which was a good choice. The museum was very busy and given that the visit was in the week leading up to Kings day, we may well have to return so as to avoid the numbers of people but also allow much more time, as a few hours is just not enough to give the paintings the attention they deserve.

Lovely museum, rude guests

Lovely museum with variety of works by primarily Dutch artists. Can be tricky to navigate your way around. I do not understand why museums allow pictures to be taken of the art work. I am further perplexed that guests take selfies of art works. I was actually asked to move away from a painting I was studying so a person could take a selfie with it, and I lost it.

Enjoyed our visit

Rijksmuseum is located in a lovely building with easy access to the tram. It's a massive building with so many works of art including the Masters and Dutch history. We spent 6 hours there and couldn't possibly see everything. Save the cost of the audio guide and download the app - it's wonderful! Bring headphones/earbuds. From the app you are able to choose which works of art you want to see or simply follow the app for the 'highlights' tour... and that took us several hours. Get familiar with the app before going to the museum. Seating in galleries is available, but not always when you want it. Rembrandt's Night Watch painting is currently under restoration, but you are able to see it. The reproduction on the wall in the next room is easier to see. We did not take advantage of the cafe, but it was available. Entrance is via security checking bags. Book your tickets before you go to avoid disappointment. A few visitors were quite obnoxious literally walking right in front of us to get close up while we were viewing a painting from only a few steps away. We found some of the museum tour guides had little regard for visitors not in their tour group. They would go right up to paintings pointing out things to their group but being in the way of others just wanting to see a painting. Yes, it's a museum worth visiting - but expect crowds.

Worth

The collections in the museum were extremely impressive and extensive. Works of arts were from different eras. The Dolls houses and library were amazing. The delftware, William rex and Etienne-Maurice Falconet were some highlights in the museum also. Staffs were friendly and helpful. Definitely worth visiting at least 2 hours.

I can't get over my fantastic visit to the Rijksmuseum!

I can't get over my fantastic visit to the Rijksmuseum! I haven't been to the museum in over ten years, as I was living in the United States at the time. However, I have recently visited many museums in the US, France, the UK, Greece, Turkey, and Italy. The new redesign is so well thought out and visitor-friendly. If I can compare it to, say, the Louvre and the Palace of Versailles, which I visited the month before. Though their art is exceptional (for example, Leonardo Da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa'), the user experience is often poor. You feel crammed, overwhelmed, claustrophobic and simply unloved. But the Rijksmuseum is the exact opposite - you feel like they care about you. I never felt hemmed in; I could spend as much time as I wanted looking at even the great masterpieces (like Rembrandt's 'Night Watch' or Vermeer's 'Milkmaid'), and there were plenty of seats for when I felt tired. It's testament to how great the museum is that my usually heavily distracted ADHD son was able to enjoy this museum for almost three hours. I can't say how impressed I am with the Rijksmuseum, which I will definitely visit again the next time I'm in Amsterdam.

Effortless Entry to a World of Art

Visiting the Rijksmuseum was a fantastic experience. The ticket purchase process was smooth and hassle-free, making it easy to focus on the incredible art and history inside. Highly recommend!

Dutch Art at Its Finest

The Rijksmuseum is an absolute gem in the heart of Amsterdam equal parts art gallery, time machine, and national treasure. From Rembrandt’s breathtaking Night Watch to Vermeer’s delicate Milkmaid, every room is packed with masterpieces that tell the story of the Netherlands’ rich artistic and cultural history. The building itself is a work of art. Towering arches, intricate ceilings, and wide-open galleries give each exhibit the space to shine. Walking through the museum feels like being swept through centuries from medieval armor to 20th-century modern design. The layout is intuitive, and the app helps guide you to key highlights if you’re short on time. One of the best surprises? The detailed exhibits beyond paintings furniture, fashion, Delftware, ship models, and more each beautifully displayed and offering insight into everyday Dutch life across time. The library room alone is worth a stop it’s a quiet, cathedral-like space for book lovers and historians. This museum is massive, so wear comfortable shoes and take your time. A café and gift shop near the exit round off the visit nicely, giving you a chance to unwind and pick up a little art-inspired souvenir.

A must-visit in Amsterdam — incredible art collection

The Rijksmuseum is definitely worth visiting. It has an impressive and extensive collection of art, and we truly enjoyed exploring it. Highly recommended for anyone interested in history, culture, or classic art. The entry process was super fast — we were inside within a minute, which made the experience even smoother. The only downside was the restaurant, which is extremely overpriced. Unless you’re prepared to pay a lot for a simple meal, it might be better to eat elsewhere. Overall, a fantastic cultural experience and a must-see if you’re traveling to Amsterdam.

Amazing and well organized collection

Great organization of the museum makes for a great day exploring the exhibits. We took a snack break in the cafe so we could have time to see everything. Go early in the day to make sure you get a (free) locker

Don’t miss this one!

Very beautiful and well organized National Gallery. This is a must visit when in Amsterdam. Here you will see classics from the masters as well as a stunning collection of art and historical pieces.

Great Museum; Lovely Guided Tour

We signed up for the hour guided tour in English. Our tour guide, Harpert, was great. He kept the tour moving and gave us background information on the museum, it's renovations, and selected art pieces, including The Night Watch. Harpert was a gem; we would sign up for any tour that he was giving. In addition to the pieces highlighted during the tour, we enjoyed exploring the entire collection on our own.

Allow enough time

A great museum full of many different things to see an appreciate. The pictures are of course beautifully presented and well known, but dont miss looking for the Dolls house for example which is amazing.

A lovely museum

A well presented museum. A little confusing at times when trying to find certain numbers on walls for exhibits though. Well ventilated and bright and interesting artifacts in English and Dutch. Lovely way to spend a couple of hours in the city. There are huge bathrooms and lockers etc so you can walk around with ease without all your bags and jackets etc.

Go for a Wander

A worthwhile experience as something to tick off the list when visiting Amsterdam. We aren’t particularly cultured when it comes to art, but we enjoyed a wander around and the building and grounds are beautiful.

Enjoyable Visit!

We really enjoyed our visit, although it is vast, it is sectioned into chronological periods. We did have trouble finding some pieces of art including the Van Gogh (maybe go to the Van Gogh Museum if we’re in Amsterdam again?!). We booked tickets on-line with timed entrance. We arrived early and enjoyed a lovely lunch at the Cafe Cobra behind the Rijkmuseum in Museumplein.

Stunning and huge!

Stunning artwork. VERY well displayed and grouped. While Rembrandt's Night Watch was under renovations, the information about the reno was facinating. We did the self-guided tour and the devices worked perfectly. It is best to pick the artists or periods you wish to visit and focus on those. This museum is HUGE and would take a couple days to really see it all. So incredible to see some of the greatest works in history.

Lots to See.

The museum is huge and can be overwhelming. As I get older and weaker, I find it harder to get through an entire museum comfortably. I've held true to the belief that it's okay to whizz by a gallery or rooms that don't hold your interest, but with added pain, it makes sticking around even tougher. That being said, there are a lot of elevators that, in my experience, were only used by those that actually needed it, and not the lazy entitled tourist. There are many benches throughout the galleries as well. People using said benches to watch reels at full volume. We've failed as a species. Violent fantasies increase. By coincidence, the special exhibit was on "American Photography" and there's nothing wrong with a little Robert Frank when you're museum hopping. The special exhibit might be a little hard to find, and it's a bit like a mouse in a maze trying to find its cheese to get there. Staff is friendly and helpful. You have to buy tickets before entering. There's a nondescript dude standing somewhere random you can buy a ticket from. There's a huge fascist style banner with a QR code you can do it on your phone. You can do it online ahead of time, but then you're restricted to the entry time you chose, though they may not be strict about it, depending on crowd volume. Spent about two hours there and barely saw what they have. Must visit, when in Ams.

Great visit with guide

Best to pay the extra for a guided tour. Enjoyed the art work so much more with background information. Would like to visit again.

Fantastic displays focused on certain time periods. Management needs to address some issues.

Fantastic displays concentrated in a couple of time periods. Wonderful building that is imaginative and welcoming. However, navigating was difficult because of the lack of directional signs, or ones that were misleading. (I never did find the Asian pavilion). Most disappointing was the cafe. You had to be seated before you could see a menu, but there was a line and I wanted to see what was offered and the cost before I was seated, and it was expensive. Personnel in general were very helpful.

Nice museum

This is a huge museum with a lot to see. It was very busy in certain areas but we managed to book tickets on the door. The layout is quite confusing with very few signs. Loved the library! Worth a visit but pick what you want to see!

Beautiful art confusing building

The art contained in this museum focuses on Dutch old masters. Many lovely historical paintings. I particularly liked the still life’s of flowers from 1600’s. Rembrandts Night Watch is under repair and has a large scaffolding in front of it, so don’t be disappointed. The Vermeers are stunning don’t miss them. What can you say historical, important, beautiful, national art. Great art. Toilets located down stairs first floor only, not a single water fountain available in the whole place, but the kicker is the third floor is not connected!! The third floor is accessible only if you enter from second floor great hall up stairs that gets you to 1 smallish area, go back downstairs to 2 floorgreat hall on opposite side go up another set of stairs to access the other part of 3 rd floor. It was very confusing and 3 floor is where a very small collection of impressionist paintings are located. It’s a lovely collection. A lot of schools visit also a lot of guides with groups. I wish the museum staff would require guides to talk to the groups away from the paintings because they monopolize the area and the paintings are inaccessible to the rest of the public. I waited 30 minutes to get near the Vermeers for a group of 10 people and guide to finish the tutoring lol. I was annoyed because I thought that staff can prevent that kind of monopolization.

Enormo-museum

In common with many of the world's capital city museums, this is a colossal collection of art and artefacts. It is almost too much to cram into one day, I'd recommend scoping the bits you want to see and getting to them first. Advance booking is essential.

A whole day’s visit

We spent a whole day at the Museum. There is a wide mix of art and other collections from Medieval to 20th Century. The Night Watch which is mean to be “the” picture is undergoing examination and restoration but is still in show, but I was more impressed with some of the other Dutch masters.

Excellent museum

This is a must-see while in Amsterdam. The building itself is breathtaking, and there is the opportunity to learn so much about Dutch history within. We spent several hours here yet I think we probably only saw half of the museum! It is well organized and relatively easy to navigate. I do wish I had opted for the audio guide, though.

One of the must see museums

This is a huge museum with so much art and history to see. Conveniently located next to the Van Gogh museum if you want to combine. We went first thing in the morning before it was too crowded.

Trove of art

The Rijksmuseum is an absolute treasure trove of art, history, and culture. From the moment you step inside, you’re surrounded by stunning architecture and an incredible collection of masterpieces.

This Museum is a Must- Do in Amsterdam.

We really enjoyed this museum. I would consider it a must do when in Amsterdam. A few tips: 1. The Museum is €25 but is covered with the I Amsterdam Card. 2. Reserve your time in advance. If you have the I Amsterdam Card it’s easy to just select that you have the card and reserve your time for €0. 3. Plan longer than you think for this museum. It has a lot of things to see. 4. Enter the queue a few minutes prior to your reservation time so you can go through security and drop your coats and bags prior to entering the museum.

Great place

Awesome visit, entire staff was helpful and friendly. Could have spent more time there, Thank you for a memorable visit.

Dutch Realism

This historic museum is full of Dutch treasures, especially paintings from the age of great realistic painting. And they have interesting displays of information that educate you about the background of the paintings. I left with a better appreciation of this particular school of art. I recommend that you buy your entrance ticket on line to avoid a crowd at the entrance.

So much to see

Starting from Floor Zero with the Renaissance and then to Floor 2 (with the Honour Gallery) took almost 3 hours as there are so many artifacts to see and enjoy. I particularly loved the silver work done by a family of silversmiths.

Must-visit for history, art and museum enthusiasts

The stunning building of the Rijksmuseum is a short distance from Amsterdam Centraal in the vibrant Museumplein area. The staff are exceptionally welcoming and friendly. The museum is vast, offering a journey through Dutch and European art masterpieces. Unless you have ample hours to spare, I would recommend being selective about what you wish to see. Nevertheless, you will discover some remarkable masterpieces to appreciate. The museum can become quite crowded, particularly around the more famous pieces of artwork. The café is often busy, but there are plenty of eateries in the local vicinity. The shop is charming, with a good selection of items available, and there is also a bookshop. It's a must-visit for history, art, and museum enthusiasts.

More restrictive than other immersive experiences, but if you are a Rembrandt or Van Gogh fan, still enjoyable!

We entered the darkened church sanctuary and had to find seats (choose from large cushions on the floor or church pews or chairs) not knowing what direction we would be looking. It was hard to hear the introduction since the speaker did not have a microphone. Once the program began, it seemed like images on one wall did not travel around 360 degrees. And depending on where you sit, you may have chandeliers and other infrastructure in your sightline. At times, it was a bit difficult to hear the words spoken during the program. Rembrandt was not as interesting or as colorful as Van Gogh (at least in his later years). I ended up just looking around and up to see what I could enjoy during the program. I did see a number of my favorite Van Gogh paintings, but have no idea how many different works were covered. The show lasted about 40 minutes. It was not as much fun as the other immersive experiences I've seen (where you can get up and move around), but it was still enjoyable!

Worth the visit if you have a ride!

Enjoyable! Set in an historic church both artists attended. Sound is a little garbled; visuals are like a panoramic slide show. Area is difficult to access via taxi.

Not when you are tired!

I was tired after long day of walking and there were mats on which I lay - this was a mistake. I initially started to dose. The imagery is cast on the ceiling and the walls. Lying on your back you have to crane your head around to see the walls as well. I wonder if it would have been better to have been seated? The sound, as I am a senior, was occasionally difficult to discern but overall mood was set and did impact the images. I am not certain that the value is there though at 17€ for 40min. On the other hand I do not regret spending time experiencing Van Gogh’s words while seeing his images.

Beautiful Experience

The atmosphere in this church was truly beautiful, and the production of the experience was top-notch. Our guide for the day, Gustavo, was fantastic. It's quite something to realise you're in the same church where both Rembrandt and Van Gogh once were (and that it's still an active church)! The unique touch of laying on bean bags in the church's center made it even more memorable. We found the experience to be very informative and thoroughly impressive. Definitely recommend a visit! Just be sure to wrap up warm, as it can be a little cold inside, which is understandable for such a large church

Colorfull Story

Lovely show, A wonderfull moment to simply enjoy a story and beautiful art. The colors and the sound bring you into the story.

Incredible

The story was incredible. How the pictures were displayed felt like Van Gogh was there through his artwork. This is our last day in Amsterdam and it really made our final day feel special. Thank you to all the people who made the amazing display.

Amazing presentation

If you love Goya's art and want to experience it through the voices and photos it is an amazing experience to see it all come alive. I recommend it highly

Lovely experience

Very friendly staff it was enjoyable and a different way of looking at art. Really enjoyed the experience with a great summary of how Van Gough was inspired by Rembrandt.

Unlike anything I have done before!

This experience was incredible and nothing like I have ever experienced before! You are so immersed that you genuinely lose track of time. Would highly recommend.

booked by mistake, but loved the experience 😍 …

A Mesmerizing Journey Through Art at the Noorderkerk The Van Gogh and Rembrandt light performance at the Noorderkerk is a breathtaking tribute to two of the Netherlands' greatest artists. Located in the heart of the Jordaan, the historic church becomes a living canvas as stunning projections of Van Gogh’s vivid landscapes and Rembrandt’s evocative portraits illuminate its walls. Guided by the voice of a skilled narrator, the audience is taken on an intimate journey through the lives and works of these masters. The narration adds depth and context, weaving the stories behind the art into the immersive visual experience. The interplay of light, color, and storytelling creates a unique atmosphere, blending history and innovation within the awe-inspiring architecture of Noorderkerk. This performance is an unforgettable homage to Dutch artistic heritage, offering a fresh and engaging way to connect with the timeless genius of Van Gogh and Rembrandt. I loved it. A must-see for art lovers and anyone seeking a unique cultural experience in Amsterdam.

Amazing immersive experience and not to be missed!

Beautiful immersive way to enjoy learning about Van Gogh and Rembrandt. Gorgeous setting and wonderful video/music projected onto the church. I feel sad by the amount of negative reviews because the purchasers didn’t know what they were buying - this is no reflection on the experience and is user error. The website clearly states multiple times ‘we are not the Van Gogh museum’ so I don’t think they can do any more to avoid this happening. I would definitely recommend - I loved lying on the bean bags to watch the church transform in front of my eyes!

Wonderful experience

The show was amazing and breathtaking !! The images and the sound worked so well together. We enjoyed the whole show and the time flew away. The church as a place for this show was just the perfect spot. For us it was the perfect final of a great day in Amsterdam. It’s a beautiful way to come a little closer to the two artist Van Gogh and Rembrandt, even if you don’t enjoy standing in a museum and watching art the whole day.

Incredible virtual experience

The virtual art experience of Van Gogh and Rembrandt was absolutely stunning. The setting was both lovely and meaningful, creating a perfect backdrop for the works of these two iconic artists. The atmosphere was immersive, and the visuals were simply breathtaking, bringing their masterpieces to life in ways that felt both intimate and grand. What made this experience truly memorable was how well it conveyed the stories and legacies of these two famous local artists. Each piece seemed to speak not only of their genius but of the rich cultural heritage they left behind. The combination of stunning visuals, captivating storytelling, and an incredible atmosphere made this experience a beautiful tribute to Van Gogh and Rembrandt. Highly recommended for any art lover!

Amazing immersive art experience!

The MOST amazing experience! Absolute highlight of our trip to Amsterdam. Grab a bean bag on the floor, recline, and look up as the art and story are projected on the ceiling and walls. Staff did a great job. Go!

Art in immersive storytelling!

This is a must see experience. Cozy, immersive and a unique lens to art. It helps you get a peek into Van Gogh's mind and why Rembrandt inspired him as much as he did.

Informative and enjoyable visit to see this light display

Really enjoyed this light display. The setting was perfect to learn about these fabulous artists. It was held in a church and you had the choice to lie on the floor on beanbags or chairs. Very informative

Great experience!

Great experience, different and beautiful. It would be better if there were different languages, and the sound is a bit low so it was difficult to understand.

Visual Excitement!

The visuals were great, it felt so surreal. The staff were super patient (I was 5 minutes late 🤭🤭) Definitely recommend!!

Immersive experience

A very cool experience linking the two great artists in a church we you are surrounded but their artwork screened onto the walls and ceiling. Music was emotive and the art stunning. Only downside is the audio which can be difficult to hear.

Impressive visuals

Such an incredible show! The visuals were so impressive and very friendly staff! I liked how you could take photos of the show as well.

Came here with my partner without pre-planning our visit and found that to be no problem. Upon queueing up we found out that there was an English show in an hour and a half and that we could come back for that show. When we got back, we bought the tickets without any issues, made our way inside the church and found a beanbag to lay down on. The whole experience took about 45min and was absolutely beautiful to watch. They tell you the (a small part of) life story of Van Gogh and how that intertwined with Rembrandt, how the paintings got to be as we know them today and the visuals really captivate the words that are spoken. The visuals in general are absolutely captivating and very peaceful. For some the show was so peaceful they even snoozed off. Which was quite hilarious to see. I do have to say that the seating availability isn't the greatest for the angle you need to be tilting your head to watch the show for a long time. If you have a beanbag you are definitely a lucky person, since many complained about their neck afterwards. Overall a good experience, would recommend this for the arts enthusiasts out there.

It was really lovely, different than other emerssive experiences I've had

Amazing!!! So worth it and so inspiring

An unique experience. A must when in Amsterdam.

It was a great experience. You can go even if your English is bad.

By mistake me, my wife and my baby girl have visited the Van Gogh x Rembrandt but honestly what an experience to have in Amsterdam. Bruno was super cool and has shared so much after the presentation too. Definitely if you are in Amsterdam you should pay them a visit!

Great experience, beautiful views and informative but not boring at all.

A magical experience from start to finish. I was wowed by every change of scène. You don't just get to see the art, you get to live in it

Great price and worth the visit.

My husband and I really enjoyed this experience. It was a great way to increase our basic knowledge of both artists while enjoying the visuals of their works projected in a place they met. The experience was immersive and cut you off from the outside world. While we were a few minutes late, the staff were accomodating and the experience was worth our time. Would recommend.

What a wonderful way to enjoy both artists stories and feel as if you’re in the painting. You can stand, sit or lie down on large pillows. My daughter and I happened upon this immersive experience, offered in Dutch and English. A 360 degree projection in De Noorderkerk. The staff were gracious and kind! I couldn’t have asked for a better serendipitous immersive art experience. I highly recommend and would see again. Tickets can be bought at the door.

Great venue and lovely helpful staff. Unique experience

Visited this exhibition and although had some trouble finding it it was well worth it. The staff were so helpful helping us find our way back to central train station. Amazing venue and insightful story told. The projections of the artists works were incredible. A fully emersive experience we would strongly recommend.

A unique experience

A unique experience with the famous paintings projected on the church ceiling and wall while you lie on bean bags to listen to the story behind them

Emotional & evocative.

I left with goosebumps, this was such a unique & touching experience. Feel blessed to have experienced it. Jus wonderful, it really made my holiday.

I wondered how it will be, the result for me is that I was very satisfied. Indeed, it is well done, both for images, Lights and sounds. I think I understand now better who is Rembrandt and I have to say that thanks to this show I also appreciate his paints...

An interesting take on same famous artists. Very comfortable seating and an all immersive viewing for 45 mins. If you want something a little different and not too much detail this is ideal. NB. You should know a little about the two and art before heading in.

Very nice environment , perfectly made installation! A lot of room for sitting. The old church keeps the vibe. And it is amazing to feel that Rembrandt and Van Gogh were in the same church sitting maybe on the same place. Both children and grandparents were in love. See more pictures and videos attached.

One of the best 3D projections experiences I have ever seen and a compelling story to go with it. We really enjoyed this production and the beautiful venue. Great attention to detail in the story, the visuals and a lovely soundtrack bring this entire experience to the next level. Highly recommended and, in my opinion, better than many other Rembrandt and Van Gogh Amsterdam attractions...

Beautiful and emotionally very touching! An absolute must for a real VanGogh fan! I also liked the overlays from paintings by both artists. And all this this presented in a beautiful very old church that both artists had visited during their time ! Stunning!♥️♥️♥️

How the lives of these two Dutch (and the world's) masters intertwined in an absolutely breathtaking digital re-imagined storytelling. It's a must if you visit (or live) in Amsterdam. Highly recommended!!!

Très belle découverte

Merci pour cette belle expérience, les jeux des sons et lumières sont magnifiques dans une église où des matelas sont mis à votre disposition au sol pour admirer le joli spectacle. Pensez à vous couvrir car il fait assez frais dans l'église et le spectacle dure 40mins. Gustavo est juste genialissime, très agréable. Attention le spectacle est entièrement commenté mais en anglais exclusivement. Si vous achetez un tour en bateau ou en bus rouge vous aurez une réduction pour cette attraction. Merciiiii

Mooi beeld en matig geluid.

Absoluut een mooie weergave van werken van Van Gogh en Rembrandt. De gesproken ondertiteling is alleen slecht te verstaan, omdat de muziek daarvoor te hard staat in een gebouw vol acoustic.

Tolles Event

Wir wurden von einem supernetten Team empfangen, die Atmosphäre in der Kirche war natürlich auch etwas ganz besonderes. Die Show war wundervoll aufgebaut, immer wieder gab es fantastische Übergänge. Die Geschichte Van Goghs aus seinen Briefen zu erfahren war wirklich spannend, man sollte auf jeden Fall recht gut englisch verstehen können, um den Texten zu folgen. Wir waren auf jeden Fall begeistert und haben viele Fotos und Videos gemacht. Es lohnt sich, sich frühzeitig in die Schlange zu stellen, um einen der gemütlichen Sitzsäcke zu bekommen.

Excelente exposición! La recomiendo ampliamente.

Super expérience je recommande

Geweldige ervaring in een prachtige ambiance. Jammer dat de speaker in het engels is. Ik woon in Nederland.!,Verder absolute aanrader!

Gave experiance.

Een prachtige filmische experiance over Van Gogh en Rembrandt. In de embiance van de oude Noorderkerk zie je over de nog steeds aanwezige onderdelen van de kerk, zoaks oreekstorl, orgel, kroonluchters en kerkramen impressies van werken van Van Gogh en van Rembrandt.

absolut beeindruckend!

Eine wirklich sehenswerte Veranstaltung. Die Atmosphäre in der Kirche ist beeindruckend und der Sound umspielt alles richtig gut. Absolut zu empfehlen!
