Combined ticket was the best decision, everything worked out perfectly and was found. And above all we saved money. First we visited the science museum with the kids and in the evening we took a canal cruise through Amsterdam under the lights!

That the kids do not only see the tests but they have to do it by themselves and thinking about it and study. Very but very educational. Compliments for the formula who created all this. Most interesting museum for kids.

    Visiting the NEMO Science Museum was an absolute delight! It’s a place where science truly comes alive — interactive exhibits, fun experiments, and a rooftop view that beautifully captures Amsterdam’s charm. It’s not just for kids; even adults can rediscover their curiosity here. After exploring NEMO, the Canal Cruise was the perfect way to unwind and see the city from a different perspective. Gliding through the picturesque canals, watching the iconic bridges and historic houses pass by, felt magical. The audio guide added interesting stories and facts, making the ride both relaxing and informative. Together, these experiences offered the perfect blend of learning, leisure, and local culture. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Amsterdam — a must-do combo that makes the trip truly memorable! 🌷🚤✨
