It is a wonderful museum, with a great collection of paintings. Very interesting, everything was very clean, excellent. It could really use a room for temporary exhibitions by Latin American painters like Benito Ramos Catalan, Pacheco Altamirano, Rafael Cauduro, Iván Olivares Alcalde, Yuki Yamamoto Cortes, Carolina Testart Aguirre, etc., etc. Some of these painters are still alive.

The Rijksmuseum was definitely worth a visit. The museum app is highly recommended. We didn't find the canal cruise all that exciting. With the combo ticket, it was a bit cheaper overall. It wouldn't have been worth the standard price of €17.50 to us. There was an audio guide recorded in 10 languages, and earphones were handed out as needed.

I planned my itinerary in advance whilst in the UK so Headout was a very useful app to have. I was able to load the tickets into my Apple wallet and had no problem entering the museum earlier than the ticket time. I got reminders of all the activities I booked and was offered discounts along the way. Very helpful.

Well organised and easy to book on line. The layout of the museum was a bit confusing but we got there in the end. You need st least 6 hours to take in the history of what you are seeing. The cafe was lovely at the end of our day. Would highly recommend this museum and give it the rating it deserves of 5 stars.

The museum is totally worth it! A wonderful experience for art lovers; everything was very easy right from the entrance, with excellent signage, and the map really helps you know exactly which room to go to if you don't have much time. Booking tickets through Headout was super easy!

Booking was very easy. Furthermore, after an unexpected event forced me to change my dates, Headout allowed me to cancel and get a refund from the Rijksmuseum. This is the best way to make a reservation.

The ever changing, always suberb Rijksmuseum never ceases to conjour up awe and wonder as the jewel in the crown of the world's very best museum quarter. Usually impossible to get into at short notice without needing a second mortgage, we booked 14hrs before our excellent crowd beating 9am entry slot via the always suberb Headout.com. All at ~70% of the usual fee. Would reuse in a New York heart beat, cannot recommend highly enough.

Easy entry even 30 minutes early. We spent practically an entire day in this magnificent museum, which showcases much more than just paintings. A must-visit without hesitation.
