What to expect

Visit the Rijksmuseum on a small-group guided tour with skip-the-line tickets included! Experience some of the most famous and influential works of the 17th century up close and discover the stories and scandals behind the masterpieces. On this tour, you will discover how Vermeer, Rembrandt, and Frans Hals captured the incredible expansion of the Dutch Golden Age.

Admire objects and paintings dating from this unprecedented era in Dutch history and explore how art reflects the changing values and beliefs of the republic. Be amazed by the illusionism of the still-life paintings and Vermeer's interiors, be inspired by the scale of Rembrandt's The Nightwatch, and see the dollhouse of every young child's dreams.

Along the way, your professional guide will explain the social and historical context that gave rise to one of the biggest middle-class art markets the world has ever seen. After the tour, you are welcome to continue to explore the rest of some of the 8,000 works on display as your ticket is valid all day. Or maybe you want to relax in the cafe or the museum shop.
