    Go to the Night Watch just before closing. The crowds will have dispersed and you'll have 15 minutes of quiet to soak in the beauty.

    Apart from the obvious pieces you'll find in there, the entrance hall's architecture is really worth a good long look!

    Great museum. You can visit everything in one day. Never compare a museum to the Louvre. Please.

    Go in the morning, I got to wander almost completely alone! Think it would have been better with a guide or if you learn a little bit about the art beforehand.

    You don't need to pay the 5€ to rent a audio guide device, if you have and iphone/ipad! Just download the Rijksmuseum app on the Store!

    Building itself is just as spectacular as the priceless treasures inside. Night Watch & Van Gogh self portrait are must sees but so are Doll Houses & Ship models

    All the Masterpieces are in a central room (Nightswatch, etc..). Doing only this hall will save you time

    You don't need to book the multimedia tour. You just need the free app. It's the same that you get with the iPod Touch from the counter. It's also free wifi in the museum.

    It’s really big and the building itself is beautiful. There are many important art pieces to see but the price is a bit high.

    There is a looooong queue for the garderobe. Instead of waiting, go to downstairs where there is another smaller one. No waiting needed. And buy the e-ticket, avoid waiting for the tickets too. :)

    I'd advise against taking your backpack when visiting, as you need to check it in (rather long queue the day I was visiting).

    If you purchase your ticket for not making the line you still have to make it with those that do not have to make the line. It was longer by the way than those that did not purchase the ticket before
