Tour description
Entrance tickets to the Rijksmuseum are included, and your guide will have them ready for you. On this 120-minute small-group tour, you'll explore the highlights of the Dutch Golden Age and the art and objects that defined the young Dutch Republic. Marvel at the lifelike illusions of the still-life and interior paintings, stand in awe before Rembrandt's monumental The Night Watch, and discover a dollhouse straight out of every child's dreams. Along the way, your professional guide will bring to life the social and historical context behind one of the largest middle-class art markets the world had ever seen.
Your ticket is valid all day, so after the tour you're welcome to explore more of the museum's 8,000 works on display, or relax in the café and browse the museum shop.
