Dazia PinedaSeptember 19, 2016You cannot take pics. Try to get your tickets in advance, you can bring it on your phone.
Michal KruntorádMay 17, 2014Must-see! Long waiting ques though... come here arround 5PM if you dont have preordered ticket and you will get in fast.
Bianca BuenoMay 23, 2016You can't bring back packs into the exhibit room but they do have a counter where you can deposit your bag
Svetlana LashchukMay 2, 2013Van Gohg is really amazing!!! However, it's so annoying how easy to spoil the impression - the lights are horrible, some of paintings hard to see if u are not 2 meters tall
Zara KhanAugust 16, 2014The best part of my trip. Van Gogh's stunning body of work. An absolute treat.
FlorSeptember 5, 2017If you have a Museum Card, go straight to the group entrance and avoid the queues!
Annabel CoronisAugust 19, 2015Huge array of paintings. Could b better arranged. Needs to b numbered by room but over all fabulous
Vanessa QuekApril 21, 2016No photos (at your own risk level with sunflower has a difficult short man in glasses). Museum shop not so cool... A bit tacky for gifts.
Chee MingApril 15, 2014Do buy online. The lines can be pretty long. Depending on the weather it might not be that fun standing outside.
Violeta Rangel EscajadilloMarch 31, 2016Your new queueing system is the worst. I hold a museumkaart and I've been queueing for over 30 minutes, what's then the benefit of having tickets or musumkaart in advance?- Ioanna ADecember 3, 2013A must see museum of Amsterdam! Free with the I AMsterdam card! Dont miss it!
DMJanuary 20, 2016Very beautiful building from the outside and, obviously, beautiful paintings inside.
Rafi SyedJune 19, 2012An obvious choice. Get the museumkart if you're going to do more than 1 museum, it let's you skip the line.
Elmira BackSeptember 3, 2014Free wifi , u can't take photo 😜, u can see how the paints of Van Gogh improve In ages 😊 , like that
Brian DammeirAugust 21, 2016Excellent audio guides, but the museum's layout lacks any feeling of intimacy.
Bora DemiralanAugust 10, 2016I didn't come here to read how was his mental situation. But the museum is excellent:-)
LitaMarch 17, 2015Same as the rijksmuseum, this place is also one of my favourites along with the stedelijke museum
Volodymyr MelymukaDecember 2, 2016Grab audio-tour, it's cheap and very interesting. And free for kids
Martina BrusatoreSeptember 25, 2019Book online and take an audioguide .unfortunately some of the most famous masterpieces are not here
Kay OehlerJuly 6, 2018A very large collection of Van Gogh's works, but even with a timed entry system there are far too many people inside at once. Go to Rijksmuseum or Rembrandt House museum instead.
Sandro SouzaDecember 1, 2013Mandatory point for all tourist in Amsterdam. Even the no-art fan must visit this museum.
✨#IamRomdelacrème✨October 14, 2014Had a short layover at the airport and took the opportunity to come to the museum. SO glad we did!
Melissa CogsSeptember 19, 2014Be sure to buy tickets online first and skip the huge line of people waiting!!!
Melvin CFebruary 13, 2016good way to understand the artist. enjoy the art pieces. use the audio guide.
Go to the Gauguin exhibition and enjoy forgotten times. Even though it doesn't look groundbreaking, just go. Some important works are on display. Don't forget to touch the litho's!
Amsterdam City ToursApril 23, 2012The most visited museum in town. Skip the all-year-round, endless line by booking tickets online in advance. Read more
Lola RhinoMay 20, 2013Get your tickets through website, loooong lines guaranteed otherwise. You also should select a certain time of your tour. That's how it works;)
Brian StraussJuly 28, 2022Tells his life in paintings — fantastic even with “starry night” out on loan.
- João GonçalvesSeptember 27, 2016To the last place. the most obvious. It's mandatory to see how important van Gogh was to the world of painting.
Elena EfimonaMay 6, 2017You can't pay with card in the cafe if the card was issued in Spain. And there's no ATM inside. This is really disturbing
EmilyApril 12, 2017A really sobering and respectful look at the life and dreams of a wonderful artist.
Kevin HuApril 27, 2015Van Gogh is a really unique painter with its colors, brush strokes, wide variety of paintings and productivity!
Carl GriffinDecember 5, 2015Wonderful collection pf Van Gogh paintings and an insight into his life.
Naila FateenOctober 15, 2013They don't tell you before you're actually inside that you have to check in your backpacks and umbrellas at a very long queue. Leave them at home to save time
Ranjan KhotejaDecember 5, 2014Must go museum if you are in Amsterdam. Lovely arts by van gogh and brief stories about his life.
Sandra SilvaJuly 1, 2016The marvelous Van Gogh works of art and the biographical information about the artist
