The building itself was stunning. As soon as I arrived, I was amazed by its beautiful architecture — a mix of history and elegance. When I entered, I felt both excited and a little overwhelmed because there was so much to see. I finally saw Rembrandt’s “The Night Watch” in real life. It was larger and more impressive than I imagined. Walking through the museum, I felt like I was traveling through time. Each room told a different story about Dutch history and culture. The atmosphere was calm, and I could feel the respect that everyone had for the artworks.

A museum for the whole family, where the youngest visitors can learn about different mechanisms (piston engines, electricity, etc.) in a fun way. Older visitors will also be interested in the Universe (Elementa). Humanity is explored with Humania, which demonstrates the influence of our genes and our environment, making each of us a unique human being. A great time with our big teens!

We came to Amsterdam for 4 days. We had prebooked tickets for myself and my husband. We were looking forward to visit Rijksmuseum in a day, but it wasn't possible. The museum has lots of huge collections, which we couldn't see in one day. We saw level 1 and 2. We will be back in Amsterdam and we will come to the museum again. I loved everything I saw there. We strongly recommend visiting it.

    I compare it with similar institutions in Kyiv - Experimentanium, and Warsaw - Kopiernikpark. Absolutely not worth the money I paid. It looks like a large playroom, which are popular in large cities of Ukraine, and the level of exhibits reminds me of the Mad Professor's Laboratory and the Museum of Funny Science in Odesa. This is a good play area for 4-8 year olds, no more. If you are interested in this topic, fly to Warsaw to Kopiernik Park and be sure to visit the Kyiv Experimentarium for hour-long themed science shows like the Tesla show with a huge Tesla coil and the show with the influence of sound waves on fire and the like. This is the popularization of real science! I had much higher expectations for 70 euros for three of us... in two hours we managed to see absolutely all the exhibits and we didn't see anything exciting related to science Maybe after

    I visited the Rijksmuseum yesterday, 12th November and spent seven hours there. I had wanted to see the range of paintings and other items of art and was truely delighted. The Rijksmuseum has one of the best displays of art work in Europe. The paintings are set out well and I valued the details of each painting and other item of art given close by on the wall. In addition to these, I particularly valued the cards with more details of the paintings. I also loved the display of model ships, along with swords, guns and other arms. My visit was memorable and will stay with me for a long while.

    I had a great time. The works are magnificent and the entire museum team is very attentive to our needs. There's also an app to take us on a guided tour of the collections. How to spend 5 hours without realizing it. Simply a must.

    Was fantastic for my 11 and 9 year old !!!! They refused to leave for 5.5 hours . We started with the human exhibition on the upper floor and slowly went down through the others . They literally had to kick us out at closing time ;)
