We booked an early entry, so no queue and so we were able to move around to see what we wanted too before it go too busy. By 11.30 we headed to the cafe for coffee and applecake and by luck were allocated one of the best seats for two. Refreshed we sought out out a few more art gems from the 17th century Dutch painters. A totally uplifting experience.

For our first time in Amsterdam I wanted to make it special to my family so I picked out one of the most famous museums there. Our journey started off well when we were mesmerized by the gardens we saw first up front. Continuing with our entrance we didn't need to wait much as per our pre-booked tickets. The staff at the door was very nice. All of the staff talked great in English and as tourist we felt integrated. The museum was enormous, had a lot to see. The art pieces gave our family a touch to Dutch history and the beauty of it. We recommend to have a guide because unfortunately we didn't have one and prehaps it was bigger than I had assumed and the idea that I could handle it alone was... wrong. Hopefully my daughters helped me a lot. We also recommend to go early morning because it can be crowded.But people there were really respectful! One of the craziest thing I might have seen there was the library! We were observeing the architecture when we saw really people reading and studying downstaris and the tourist up here were really respectful by being quiet! If you get tired there were portable chairs at the reception that you could take with you, very thoughtful! There was also a type of restaurant that was placed in a beautiful part. Tip: don't miss the gardens and also best time to vist: April and May. Overall it was and experience that I would choose it again. I'm so glad that this museum was on my list. Thank you Amsterdam!

My visit to the Rijksmuseum was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, everything was smooth and well-organized—the entry process was quick and stress-free, which made a great first impression. The museum itself is breathtaking, both inside and out, and every gallery feels like stepping into a different world. The highlight for me was seeing masterpieces like Rembrandt’s The Night Watch in person—it’s something no photo can truly capture. The lighting, the scale, the atmosphere… just incredible. I also loved how thoughtfully curated the exhibitions are, making it easy to follow the story of Dutch art and history even if you’re not an expert. What made the experience even more special was how accessible and comfortable everything felt—clear directions, plenty of space to enjoy the art, and helpful staff when needed. It never felt rushed or overcrowded. This was not just a museum visit, but a truly inspiring cultural experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Amsterdam—whether it’s your first time or your fifth, it will leave you amazed. ✨

What was particularly frustrating was that I had to spend another 50 euros on new tickets because your voucher couldn’t be redeemed (where, exactly?), I couldn’t download your strange app (did you block my internet?), and the museum staff couldn’t help me. I feel like you’ve cheated me, and I’m going to post about this on social media.

It was extraordinary; just seeing Rembrandt's *The Night Watch* would have been enough, but the rest is wonderful too. To be honest, though, I need to see it more times because, given its sheer size, I didn't have enough time and there were things I didn't get to see.

The Rijksmuseum is one of the most impressive museums I have ever visited. The building itself is beautiful, with a mix of historic and modern design that makes it feel both grand and welcoming. Inside, the museum has an incredible collection of art and history, including famous Dutch paintings, detailed sculptures, and fascinating exhibits about the Netherlands. The highlight for me was seeing the masterpieces by Rembrandt and Vermeer up close—they feel much more powerful in real life than in pictures. The museum is very well organized, making it easy to explore at your own pace without feeling lost. There are also interactive displays that make learning more engaging, especially for younger visitors. Overall, the Rijksmuseum offers a rich cultural experience and is definitely worth visiting if you are in Amsterdam.

If you really appreciate art work, take more time in Rijkmuseum. I went at 9.15am and had to rush out at 3pm for canal cruise. The cruise was pleasant as it was sunny! Suggest doing these 2 separate day or book canal cruise later at 4pm or 5pm. Take note to bring earbud for free app usage if not you will have to pay Euro 6.50 per device for the art narration. I think you can do without it as well but it will take longer to read all the descriptions.
