Brilliant museum, you can learn about Amsterdam. My 9 year old loved it. Felt like you were going into an Amsterdam home with history blended into it. Lovely staff greeted us and my son had an activity to do throughout the museum and received a prize at the end. As for the miniature models absolutely amazing the details just are wow!!!🤩 loved it recommend to any age people.

I really liked the Moco and highly recommend it to anyone who likes contemporary art. Plus, the combo with the cruise was really nice and practically a steal at that price. It's highly recommended if you're interested in learning about the history of Amsterdam in addition to visiting it, but personally, I also recommend the cruise because seeing the city from the canals is a whole different experience.

We loved this place. The models are incredible and the history info is well presented. We were thinking you could have a harder scavenger hunt to get people seeing even more details. But it was brilliant. Highly recommend.

A good way to see the old part of Amsterdam. Both the Captain and the commentary gave lots of interesting facts about the history of the city. Some people on the tour talked over the commentary which was the only disappointment, otherwise I would have given the cruise five stars.

Everything worked out great and we were even able to go half an hour earlier than booked! Very friendly staff, good explanations on board the boat in many languages! Departure point was easy to find! I would definitely do it again!

Both attractions were well worth the visit. It’s great to experience Madame Tussauds in Amsterdam because many local people are also featured as wax figures. The canal cruise was a particularly wonderful experience because you get to see so much and learn a great deal about Amsterdam, its history, and the buildings. This certainly won’t be our last visit to Amsterdam.

Cover two Amsterdam essentials in one booking—a sightseeing cruise along the city canals plus entry to Miniatuur Museum—saving money compared to individual tickets.

Walk through scenes from Amsterdam’s past at Miniatuur Museum, exploring over 1,000 years of history through installations created by Dutch artists.

Wander among models of Dam Square in 1675, the Red-Light District and the Anne Frank House, with video screens and audio guides explaining each display.

For a contrasting experience, cruise along Amsterdam’s famous canals on a heated glass-top boat with multilingual audio commentary and kid-friendly activities included.

Admire sights such as the Skinny Bridge and canal-side streetscapes and compare them with the miniature-scale models inside the museum.
