Overview

Amsterdam is best viewed from the water and during this 75-minute canal cruise, you'll understand why. You'll experience the best of the historic city center. Discover the city's top highlights, iconic bridges and the 17th-century buildings lining the canals. You'll come across new architecture and bridges, showing a historical city that is rooted in history but continues to develop and change. Home to the world’s largest collection of Vincent van Gogh’s paintings, the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam transports visitors on a fascinating journey through the life of the artist and his contemporaries. The museum introduces the complete story: the artist, the context, Van Gogh’s personal ambitions, his emotions, the myths that surround him and his influence right up until this very day. The Van Gogh Museum’s collection includes world-famous paintings such as Sunflowers, Almond Blossom and The Potato Eaters. The museum also organizes three temporary exhibitions every year.

He is buried in the church he designed earlier: the 'Zuiderkerk'. The building of the Westerkerk was finished and completed by his son Pieter de Keyser (1595-1676) and inaugurated on June 8, 1631. The church has a length of 58 meters and a width of 29 meters. The high nave is flanked by the two lower aisles. The three-aisled basilica has a rectangular plan with two transepts of equal dimensions. As a result, the plan for this church was given the form of two Greek crosses connected with each other.

    The Anne Frank House (Dutch: Anne Frank Huis) is a writer's house and biographical museum dedicated to Jewish wartime diarist Anne Frank. The building is located on a canal called the Prinsengracht, close to the Westerkerk, in central Amsterdam in the Netherlands. During World War II, Anne Frank hid from Nazi persecution with her family and four other people in hidden rooms at the rear of the 17th-century canal house, known as the Secret Annex (Dutch: Achterhuis). She did not survive the war but her wartime diary was published in 1947. Ten years later the Anne Frank Foundation was established to protect the property from developers who wanted to demolish the block.

A worthwhile immersion into Van Gogh

Published on Mar, 2025

Complete immersion into Van Gogh’s life and work. I found meeting the work and stories of his contemporaries fascinating. Well worth the trip!

Very enjoyable and worth seeing!

Published on Oct, 2024

Absolute 5! An Amsterdam must see. Throughly enjoyed the museum. Strongly suggest printing your tickets for entrance.

Had a great time!

Published on Jul, 2024

The Van Gogh museum was very interesting. Spent three hours there. The River cruise was a must. Saw Amsterdam fro the canals. Very interesting, beautiful and unique.

Van Gogh A+ boat ride B

Published on Jun, 2024

The Van Gogh Museum was pure pleasure. The large collection is well displayed and is light and airy. His biography is seamlessly incorporated into the exhibit, a compelling life story in itself. The boat ride was afterward—a short walk. Because it was a warm day, the enclosed cabin was hot and stuffy. The commentary wasn’t very enlightening.
