Museo Van Gogh + Crucero por los canales de Ámsterdam

Un gran tour con una guía en distintos idiomas narrando algunas historias de monumentos que están al rededor del canal. Muy recomendable.

Excelente atención, y te dan traductores para que comprendas al guía mientras explica el recorrido

Es un tour más general

El tour está muy bien, en cambio si ya has hecho un freetour por la ciudad recomiendo el crucero primero, te da una vista más general, mi amiga y yo al haber hecho antes el freetour volvimos a ver sitios en los que ya habíamos estado.

Un paseo agradable en barco

Muy puntuales, un paseo tranquilo, recomiendo que cuando lo cojan miren bien la metereología, pues así podrán disfrutar mejor de las vistas.

Para escalas cortas de vuelo

Las vistas son preciosas, aunque desde posición incómoda porque el barco estaba muy lleno. El capitán muy simpático e hizo agradable el viaje.

Eine tolle Crew begrüßt einen lächelnd und zuvorkommend. Wir durften sogar spontan das Boot wechseln, da wir draußen sitzen wollten und nicht jedes Boot hat dazu die Möglichkeit. Die Station liegt direkt am Bahnhof und ist daher sehr zentral. Preis-Leistung ist top.

Nous avons fait un tour des canaux en février inclus dans la IAmsterdam City Card (que je recommande d’ailleurs de prendre). Le guide était très gentil et très drôle, ce qui a rendu la balade encore plus agréable. Nous avons eu la chance de visiter les canaux sous un magnifique ciel bleu, ce qui a rendu l’expérience vraiment magique.

Lovers cruise

Very enjoyble experience, the captain of the cruise gave us a very funny and interesting description of the city, and the staff gave an excellent service.

Très belle découverte en péniche

Croisière avec le groupe lovers Sympathique croisière traduit en plusieurs langue 1h pour vous faire un tour des canaux avec visite guidée et indication sur les différents quartiers/monuments / place/ marché /histoire / musée de la ville etc Très bien pour découvrir une 1er fois en famille en amies en couple cette croisière et très bien adapter

Amsterdam City River Cruise

The canal cruise was perfect, the captin come guide gave us headphones to listen in our own language. The riverboat was clean and tidy, easy to walk on and off, it was a nice day and we got some beautiful pictures!! A great end to a fantastic tourist holiday!!

Early evening cruise

We did the early evening cruise to see the lights of the city. Easy to get tickets by turning up and allocated the next cruise. There is an audio link that you can use, but we decided to just sit outside and watch the views. An hour cruise which was interesting and pretty.

Great information finding cruise

We had an hour cruise around the canals in Amsterdam and learnt a lot whilst doing it. We really enjoyed every second. My five year old didn’t want to get off. The captain was also very knowledgeable.

Très bien

Petite balade bien sympathique, est l’audio était très bien fait rien à redire. Le petit bar pour attendre est très sympa aussi avant d’accéder au bateau.

A Must Try

This is a must do on your list of things to do while visiting Amsterdam. It takes you through areas that you may not be able to walk to. The captain points out things of interest and tells the story behind it.

Informativ und schön

Wir hatten einen super symphatischen Bootsführer der viele Nebeninfos gab. War schön und informativ. 1 Stunde hat gut gereicht und empfehlenswert. Gute Karte erhalten für den Treffpunkt und pünktlich, sowie sauber.

DA PROVARE

Giro dei canali in barca assolutamente da consigliare. Audioguida in italiano e Simon simpaticissimo conducente che comunque dava ulteriori informazioni in inglese. La durata è di un'ora ma ci è dispiaciuto scendere!!

Tolle Tour

Die Stunde waren zwar nur ca. 50 Minuten, aber die Tour war wunderschön. Unbedingt abends machen, die Atmosphäre ist unbeschreiblich!

👍👍👍

Sehr nette Bootstour über die Kanäle von Amsterdam! Man bekommt viele interessante Informationen über die Stadt und deren Geschichte erzählt.

intéressant

La promenade sur les canaux dure une heure. Les audio guides permettent de suivre les commentaires dans différentes langues. Le long de cette promenade fluviale, nous découvrons l'histoire de la ville et des monuments "célèbres". Par contre, le confort est rudimentaire.

Crociera easy

Crociera molto carina con guida in tutte le lingue. Partenza vicino ala stazione centrale. Durata circa un ora. Visita dei canali principali di Amsterdam. Da provare

A fab way to see Amsterdam

We had a really lovely time on the one-hour canal cruise. Our captain was very lovely and cracked a good few jokes throughout the tour. The GPS guided tour via the headphones was a fab idea and there were so many language options available which was a really pleasant surprise. We learned so much about the history of the city and the tour even helped us to find places to visit again in further detail after the tour. The price was extremely reasonable considering the excellent experience we got, and our boat even left a little early which was nice. All in all, we would definitely recommend it!

The captian made the experience

We really enjoyed it. We show I I amsterdam cards at the ticket office ans were on a boat and on our way within 10 minutes. Our captain (Tony I believe was his name) was lovely ,cheerful and very knowledge of the area, he also had 2 traniees with him and they were also lovely. The facilties were clean. If I hadn't have had the I amsterdam card I would have still paid what the price was (which I think is reasonable).

Well worth the experience

1st time in Amsterdam and loved it Booked on the Lovers Canal cruise early in the morning to get a feel for the city and to get our bearings The tour showed the highlights of the city and the comentry was good

Cruising backward :(

sitting backward is really annoying... Except that I think it is very nice and the captain was a nice guy, he was really funny, making jokes.

Go with Lovers

Booked through Get Your Guide literally 20 mins before boarding. They let us join a boat that was boarding as soon as we got there, which was great, no standing around as they weren’t so busy. We took a daytime trip and glad we did. Maybe evening cruises would be better in warmer months with open boats. The boat was modern, clean and warm and no condensation at all during any part of our cruise. The headphones were included and the audio commentary was interesting. The captain also added bits and pieces of extra info which was appreciated. It was a great introduction to the canals of Amsterdam as we decided to do this trip literally an hour after arriving in Amsterdam. It helped us with our bearings and with general historical info about the city. The reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that we seemed to stay on one canal, no museums seen, no Anne Frank house, nothing like that, which was a shame as lots of tourists probably visit these places afterwards. Maybe the canal boat starting from the museums area take that route? We took the one from the station. There are lots of canal boat companies, but we were more than happy with Lovers as their boats appear a lot more modern than many others we saw. I would definitely recommend the cruise and my teenage daughter said it was one of the nicest things we did when in Amsterdam.

Great couples tour

A amazing tour with some great canal boat skills performed and a great host. This tour is very much for couples and being alone I felt a little out of place.

A Great Way To See The City

Done the open boat tour during the summer. A great way to see the city and the audio guide gave plenty of information along the way. Extremely relaxing to the point I almost fell asleep half way around. Would definitely do the tour again if I’m back in Amsterdam

Quick visit to see Amsterdam

Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Although it rained, I still enjoyed the tour. The only complaint was the audio was difficult to hear at times.

Relaxing hour on the canals

Nice relaxing hour around the canals. Duco (sorry if I have not got the name correct) was informative with history and fun facts. Would recommend.

Good cruise

It was educational, slowed down at the right places. The pilot was polite and explained well- was fun and energetic.

Recomendable..sin olvidarse de comprar en forma anticipada

Las instalaciones impecables y el audio guía fácil de manejar destacando lo relevante

Buen museo

Increíble museo, ordenado, limpio y moderno. Tiene algunas partes interactivas e interesante. Lo cual lo hace más chulo

Bonito museo

Gran museo dedicado a Vincent van Gogh, además de tener cuadros de otros grandes pintores. Tiene una sala aparte dedicada a sus pinturas con el color amarillo, alguna sala que interactúas con las luces y sonidos. El museo es grande. Tiene cafetería y tienda con bonitas cosas para comprar.

Imprescindible

Imprescindible si te gusta Van Gogh. La audioguía no es necesaria pero está muy bien para ir escuchando su vida y trabajos a lo largo de los años. Es pequeño así que se ve bastante rápido. No perderse la tienda de regalos que está llena de detalles

Plan para viaje corto

Museo muy recomendable para los amantes del arte, cualquiera que quiera visitar un lugar original y para aquellos que dispongan de pocos días en la ciudad.

Imprescindible

Imprescindible comprar entradas con antelación, no es extraño que se agoten en el día. La expoisción permanente está estructurada en 3 aspectos de la vida de Vincent (no sólo como artista, sino como persona y su entorno) coincidiendo con cada uno de los pisos del museo. No se puede entrar con mochilas, sí, con bolsos, aunque recomiendo dejar todo lo que sea prescindible en las taquillas (son gratuitas). También son gratuitas para los niños las audio-guías, que hacen muy entretenida y fácil de seguir la visita a los más pequeños. Además de poder disfrutar de algunas de sus obras más representativas, es una experiencia que ensalza la figura de Van Gogh y su impacto en la historia del arte desde un punto de vista muy cercano.

Sitio super recomendable para visitar en Amsterdam

Es el mejor museo de Amsterdam con mucha diferencia, tiene los mejores cuadros de van goh , muy recomendable si te gusta el arte o simplemente quiere visitar algo en Amsterdam 10/10

Para entender el impresionismo

Habiendo viajado a Europa a los destinos clásicos, uno se ha empapado de renacimiento. Aquí uno entiendo perfectamente lo que significa el impresionismo. Recorrimos el museo con la audioguía, es muy clara y te explica las etapas de la carrera del pintor a través de alrededor de 20 pinturas; antes de pasar a la sala siguiente, haces una pausa y miras el resto de las obras. Creo que para este museo, la audioguía es suficiente y no se requiere contratar visitas guiadas (no hay un exceso de obras a mirar que te abrume y se te complique elegir qué mirar y qué saltear). Este es un museo muy particular, es raro tener la obra casi completa de un pintor en un solo museo. La historia de Van Gogh es muy interesante; su obra es extensa y la hizo durante menos de 15 años. Su obra merece ser vista; ver las obras de lejos y también de cerca, los detalles; un par de pinceladas que de cerca no dicen nada, de lejos te dan la impresión de ser un animal, una persona o una parte del paisaje. En esta fecha, el museo ofrecía además una exposición de un pintor impresionista más actual.

Experiencia magnifica

Fantástico. Merece la pena. Comprar la entrada y la audioguia anticipadamente. se pueden hacer todas las fotos que se quieran.

Museo Imperdible

El museo Van Gogh es imperdible para los amantes del arte de este magnifico pintor. El edificio es una obra arquitectónica preciosa. Este alberga una gran cantidad de obras del pintor como también mucha información acerca de su vida, cosas que solo conocerás si visitas el museo. También posee el museo una gran cantidad de cartas que intercambiaba con su hermano Theo. Nosotros compramos las entradas con GetYouGuide pues se podían cancelar hasta un dia antes. No se lo pierdan si visitan Amsterdam

Es tan bueno como te han contado

Es todo lo que promete, para bien. Un museo dedicado completamente a Van Gogh por lo que el recorrido es una linea de tiempo en el que descubres su obra, sus influencias y el contexto en el que fueron realizadas las pinturas. Tiene algunos detalles muy interesantes en la museografía que lo hacen atractivo para aquellos que no están acostumbrados a visitar museos en sus viajes. Yo tuve suerte en encontrar boletos fácilmente pero en verano hay que reservarlos con mucha anticipación. Vale la pena y es obligado en tu visita a Amsterdam.

IMPRESCINDIBLE

Imprescindible visita si vas a Ámsterdam. Apreciar las obras de arte de este gran genio ha sido maravilloso. Fuimos con una visita guiada que contratamos a través de Civitatis y lo recomiendo plenamente.

Recomendable!!!

Nos ha encantado este museo, muy cómodo de visitar, con el audio guía lo disfrutas porqué tienes todo tipo de explicaciones

Museo apto para todo

Un museo estupendamente diseñado para visitarlo en familia con las obras del gran Van Gogh. Es un museo moderno y adaptado para que toda la gente lo podamos visitar. No es muy grande y eso lo hace magnífico

Espectacular

Muy buena colección de obras de Vincent van Gogh. Amplio y espacioso, hay q comprar entrada con antelación y mejor ir a primera hora. No está incluído en la city card Amsterdam

Van Gogh completo

Es un museo muy completo con mucha obra de Van Gogh, muy bien organizado y fácil de recorrer . Muy recomendable si te gusta la obra de este artista . Hasta la tienda es muy adecuada .

Separar en la web con tiempo

Ordenado , limpio con mucha gente! Pero las obras son unicas. Es importante separar la fecha de visita y realizar la compra en la pagina web al menos 6 u 8 semanas antes de la visita

Beautiful

Lo visité hace 30 años y ahora volví, para pasar un buen momento esta Perfecto , conocer y descubrir esta de lujo este lugar, solo disfrutar y fluir en armonía

Un museo impresionante para sumergirse en el arte de Van Gogh.

Un museo impresionante para sumergirse en el arte de Van Gogh. Estuve en él la semana pasada, y pude disfrutar de los cuadros más importantes del gran maestro: los girasoles, su dormitorio en Arlés, las flores del cerezo, sus múltiples autorretrato o los comedores de patatas. las instalaciones son estupendas, y fáciles de recorrer.

Museo sencillo e impactante

Sacamos entradas anticipadas Vale la pena, es un Museo simple de recorrer, buen audio guía, lockers para dejar camperas y mochilas Obras hermosas, bien organizado Saquen entradas antes!!!!!

Para ver una y otra vez!

Gran recopilacion de la obra del gran maestro, desde sus inicios hasta su ultimo periodo. Es una experiencia maravillosa poder apreciar toda la evolucion del artista en un solo lugar, distinto a ver obras sueltas, lo visite varias veces y lo sigo disfrutando!

Otro Imprescindible en Amsterdam

Museo espectacular casi monográfico sobre Van Gogh. Quizá la mayor colección existente sobre el artista que, no solo explica de manera amena su arte sino también su vida, con especial sensibilidad didáctica. Una parada obligada.

Visita obligada

Muy bien ordenada el recorrido, dividido en tres plantas y se puede estar muy cerca de los cuadros para apreciar sus detalles. Una visita que no se puede dejar de hacer

Willem Van Gogh tkm

Es precioso, todo esta señalizado muy claro, tiene actividades interactivas, el personal es amable, y es precioso ver el trabajo de Vincent tan detalladamente. 🌻

Recomendable

Además de las obras cuenta la historia de su vida de forma agradable. El museo tiene taquillas y servicios para hacer tu estancia agradable. La cafetería es carísima, el café más caro de nuestro viaje por Europa

Extraordinario, el mejor museo de amsterdam

Extraordinario museo el 75 por ciento de las obras eran de Vincent Van Gogh. Contrata la audio guia. Vale la pena. Empieza por la exposición permanente y continúa con la exposición temporal. Hay muy bonitas cosas el la tienda del museo.

Well worth a visit. Learned a lot.

Lovely gallery/museum which has been sensitively curated. I loved the way it traced Van Gogh’s life chronologically and how it showed paintings by his peers showing what he learned along the way. Loved the downstairs display which explained how his sister-in-law and nephew managed his work. I initially thought the entrance price would be too much, but I think I got value for money as I learned a lot. Good (free) lockers for bags. A number of shops selling all the usual souvenirs. I booked in advance online, otherwise I’d have not been able to get a ticket. It was easy to book a slot.

Molto bene organizzato, intimo ed emozionante

Si trova nel Museumplein ad Amsterdam...in un contesto molto verde e pieno di vita ad Agosto. La struttura è moderna e luminosa. È necessario fare i biglietti on line, per cui l'ingresso è stato rapido e snello. Autogestione per il guardaroba, rapidissimo ricevere le audioguide. La mostra è molto interessante e interattiva, realizzata in modo da collegare le opere alle fasi della vita dell'artista, alle sue relazioni e al contesto artistico. Ci sono opere molto importanti, inoltre opere di artisti contemporanei come Gauguin. Monet e Manet. Meglio non avere limiti di tempo perché nonostante non sia un museo enorme è necessario del tempo per poter vedere tutto.

Un must ad Amsterdam.

Ovviamente questo Museo, insieme al Riskmuseum, la casa di Anna Frank e lo Stedelik Museum sono tappe imperdibili ad Amsterdam. Abbiamo quindi acquistato i biglietti on line prima di partire e direi che abbiamo fatto proprio bene:-). Tutto il quartiere dei musei è davvero bello e quindi solo passeggiare in zona è molto piacevole. Sul Museo di Van Gogh in particolare avevamo grandi aspettative e devo dire che non sono state affatto deluse anzi...

Life of Vincent Van Gogh

Amazing to learn about Vincent Van Gogh his life and his passion for art. They didn’t have any display of starry night. However at the end of the almond blossom display there is fantastic photo opportunity. Several gift shops both inside and out. They have lockers for bags and belongings which is handy especially if you have the discounted tickets for the last hour. Although felt quite rushed looking around.

Good experience

This museum is very well laid out, there are quite a few other artists shown here as well a Van Gogh, which was interesting. We managed to get tickets the day before as they release a load at 5pm for the following day.

Tips speciaal voor rolstoelgebruikers!

Doordat het iets minder druk was dan in het Rijksmuseum hoefde ik als rolstoelgebruiker niet te vechten voor een plekje om een schilderij goed te bekijken. Een verademing! Het museum is uitstekend rolstoeltoegankelijk! Wel de tickets ruim van tevoren (= een paar dagen) boeken! De tijdelijke tentoonstelling over Vincent en zijn familie is een aanrader! In de museumwinkel in het museum is bijna alles te krijgen. Maar als je iets speciaals zoekt, ga dan ook even kijken in de museumwinkel op het museumplein! De collectie wisselt een beetje namelijk van de winkels in het museum!

A dream come true for an art lover🎨

Visiting the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam was truly a dream come true for me. As someone who has a background in painting, seeing Van Gogh’s work in person was much more emotional and meaningful than simply seeing his paintings in books or online. What I loved most was the way the museum allows you to understand not only the paintings, but also the artist behind them. Seeing the development of his style, his use of colour, his emotions and the different stages of his life made the visit feel like a journey through his artistic mind. The museum is also very engaging and interactive. The experience goes beyond simply walking from one painting to another. The way the story, artworks and information are presented keeps you involved and makes the visit much more memorable. From a visitor-experience perspective, I found the museum very well designed. It creates a connection between the artwork, the artist and the visitor, which is something I really appreciate as someone interested in tourism, events and experiential design. One important thing: give yourself plenty of time. This is not a museum I would recommend rushing through. For someone who truly loves art, I could easily imagine spending almost a whole day here. For me, this was not simply a museum visit. It was an emotional, educational and inspiring experience — and definitely one of the highlights of visiting Amsterdam. A dream I had for a long time finally came true. 🎨✨

Un esperienza imperdibile ad Amsterdam

Visitare il Van Gogh Museum è stata una delle esperienze più belle del nostro soggiorno ad Amsterdam. Il museo è organizzato davvero molto bene e il percorso permette di seguire in modo chiaro e coinvolgente la vita artistica di Vincent van Gogh, dalle prime opere fino ai suoi lavori più celebri. Vedere dal vivo i suoi quadri è qualcosa di completamente diverso rispetto al guardarli in fotografia: i colori, le pennellate e soprattutto i dettagli delle opere lasciano davvero senza parole. Ho apprezzato moltissimo anche il modo in cui la collezione è presentata. Non è semplicemente una successione di dipinti, ma un vero viaggio nella vita e nell’evoluzione artistica di Van Gogh, con spiegazioni interessanti e un allestimento moderno, elegante e molto curato. Molto utile anche l’audioguida, che aggiunge informazioni senza rendere la visita pesante e permette di soffermarsi sulle opere che interessano maggiormente. Nonostante sia uno dei musei più visitati di Amsterdam, l’esperienza è stata assolutamente all’altezza delle aspettative. È uno di quei posti che secondo me bisogna vedere almeno una volta nella vita, anche per chi non si considera particolarmente appassionato d’arte. Una visita emozionante, ben organizzata e impossibile da dimenticare. Assolutamente consigliato. 5 stelle meritatissime.

Good museum

Interesting museum. Audio tour is a nice bonus though most of the highlights are written in each room. They do a great activity trail to keep kids occupied. It can get a bit busy around the famous pictures but they do limit numbers of tickets. Cafe is grossly overpriced. Gift shops have some nice things.

Da visitare

Dirò qualcosa di impopolare….. forse per essere dedicato ad un solo artista non ci sono tantissime opere …. In giro per il mondo ce ne sono di più belle! Vale comunque la pena visitarlo perché grazie all’audio guida si ripercorre tutta la vita assai tumultuosa di Vincent. Mi raccomando di prendere i biglietti in anticipo perché spesso sono sold out

A great way to learn more about Van Gogh

A must-visit in Amsterdam if you want to learn more about Van Gogh and see his paintings at the same time. We visited in mid-July and really enjoyed it. It feels like you are walking through Van Gogh's life, following his story and the evolution of his art over time. Even if you don't use the audio guide, there is plenty to read along the way during your visit. During our time there, there were many visitors; it was crowded, but we still managed to enjoy our visit. The staff are helpful, which makes the experience smoother. My main tip is to book your ticket in advance on the official website, especially in summer, as you need to select a time slot. Allow around 1.5–2 hours so you don't have to rush. An adult ticket costs 25 euros, and you can check the price and book it directly on the official website. Very well organised and definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Amsterdam.

Leuk en leerzaam!

Een ontzettend mooi museum en zeker een aanrader als je van kunst houdt. Het was bijzonder. De opstelling van het museum maakt het leuk om meer te leren over van gogh.

A delight for art lover's

If you love art you are in for a immersive treat with the audio guide. Friendly staff and no rush. Highlight of any trip to Amsterdam. Tip for travelers book your tickets in advance.

Amazing collection

I am amazed the family managed to keep this many paintings together. Some extremely famous Van Gogh paintings in here. Be sure to get tickets well before your trip. You can’t jus show up here in the summer.

Great museum for fans of Van Gogh’s work

Love this museum. Great overview of Van Gogh’s life and work. We enjoyed the special collection about his relationship with his brother Theo. It was very crowded when we visited and it was tricky to see some of the paintings and information but that’s to be expected in the summer. It’s not overwhelming like some museums and is well laid out. There are a lot of stairs, and that could be an issue for some.

Interessante museo da visitare

Bella esperienza per ammirare molte opere dell’artista. Spazi ampi che permettono una visita rilassata. Consigliato

A must for Van Gogh lovers.

Excellent museum detailing the life and works of Van Gogh. Great cafe, and a good gift shop too. Allow plenty of time as there is a lot to see !

Bello e organizzato. Niente da dire

Che dire. Il museo permette di vedere i capolavori di Van Gogh. Non solo, tramite l'audioguida consigliatissima permette di entrare nella vita dell'artista in modo da comprendere meglio ancora le sue opere. Il percorso è preciso e perfettamente organizzato

Museo DI Van Gogh: la sua casa!

Arrivati al museo, che si trova nel Museumplein (quartiere dei musei) con il tram dalla stazione centrale. Mezzi pubblici super veloci e organizzati perfettamente. Il museo naturalmente è la “casa” di Van Gogh con alcuni dei suoi più famosi e conosciuti capolavori: stupendi, meravigliosi e bellissimi… per me che lo adoro. Prenotato con largo anticipo online, Audioguida compresa e molto utile. Su tre piani con opere di molto altri artisti. Due shop con ogni tipo di souvenir e caffetteria. Guardaroba con armadietti per riporre eventuali oggetti personali con sistema elettronico. L’esposizione si visita agevolmente e velocemente, con la possibilità di utilizzare gli ascensori per accedere ai piani. Unica osservazione è l’Illuminazione dei quadri perché non li valorizza quanto potrebbe.

Emotional insight into the artist’s life via his artwork

We are Van Gogh fans, so planned this visit as a highlight of our trip to Amsterdam, and it lived up to expectations. We pre-booked tickets, which were free with our NL Museum pass. We spent about 3 hours in the museum, which takes you on an emotional journey through the artist’s life via his artwork. There is a set tour which ensures you see everything. The museum was busy, but we could still read the information by each picture. There are a number of cafes and shops in the museum, plus a water fountain.

Imperdibile

Probabilmente il museo più importante della città, suddiviso su più piani che sviluppano tutte le fasi della vita di Van Gogh, i suoi stili e le influenze da lui ricevute anche da colleghi artisti le cui opere sono anch’esse esposte; sicuramente tappa imperdibile se si visita la città. Biglietti acquistabili anche online (ma non rimborsabili) indicando giorno e orario di ingresso.

a must do in Amsterdam

Absolutely loved this museum. Ive been a fan of Van Gogh all my life and i had forgotten a lot of facts and was happy to relearn them and also view a lot of his masterpieces all in one spot. The museum does a great job. I did not do the audio tour but just wandered on my own. The museum does a great job highlighting his close relationship with his brother Theo. I had forgotten Theo also died very young and that his widow Jo actually is responsible for Van Gogh's fame. I also either forgot or didnt realize there were several other siblings. We went on a Saturday during June and the only thing I would do differently next time is not go on a weekend. It was VERY busy. I think it's always busy and sold out ahead of time but I would go on a week day. Not sure how much difference it would make but that is what I would do next time. They do not sell tickets at the door you need to buy them online ahead of time. You can buy them directly from the museum and no need to use a third party website.

Beautiful Museum

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is a work of art in itself! Beautifully designed, well organized, and easy to find, it was a wonderful experience during our first visit to Amsterdam. There are quite a few stairs, but elevators and escalators are available. One helpful tip: if you’re hoping to see Van Gogh’s famous The Starry Night, you won’t find it here—it’s at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City. (Van Gogh Museum⁠

Interesting

Worth a look, we spent a couple of hours here, it was very busy but well set out and interesting to know the historic information. Along with seeing some famous works of art.
