Love seeing the collection of great art from the Netherlands by many of the Dutch masters. On our visit they were restoring the famous "Night Watch." A short walk down the street and we caught the canal tour. Best to see Amsterdam from the water. Very smooth ride after spending a few hours on our feet. Highly recommend the combination ticket to capture both events.

The canal cruise by blue boat was awesome. We got to switch to an open boat at the last minute and it was one of the best things we have done so far on our trip! The guide was great and the ride was so relaxing and fun!!

Despite long queues, everything went quickly and smoothly at the Rijksmuseum. Only the audio guides didn't work properly. The subsequent canal cruise was only a few minutes' walk away and easy to find. Overall very beautiful and impressive.

Very convenient and fast online booking. Superb works, well displayed and captions clear enough. Audio guide not really comprehensive and intuitive. The museum site and gardens are wonderful. The various collections spread over several floors are interesting

Getting started
Begin at either the Rijksmuseum or the canal cruise dock—your mobile ticket covers both. At the Rijksmuseum, head to the main entrance, scan your ticket, and pass through a brief security check. For the canal cruise, show your ticket at the Blue Boat dock and board any boat.
