Description

Combine a trip to the world-famous Van Gogh Museum with a spectacular 1-hour cruise through the historic canal district. The Van Gogh Museum has the largest collection of works by Vincent van Gogh in the world. It is one of the most important museums in the Netherlands and has been visited by millions of people. There is no better way to complete a fun day trip to the Van Gogh Museum than with an exciting boat cruise.

Visit the Van Gogh Museum and admire the world’s largest collection of paintings, drawings, sketches, and letters by the famous Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh. With almost two million visitors a year, it is the second most-visited museum in the Netherlands and definitely a must-see. The Van Gogh Museum has over 200 paintings, 400 drawings, and 700 letters by the artist. Some of the most famous pieces in the collection include The Potato Eaters (1885), Skull of a Skeleton with Burning Cigarette (1886), Sunflowers (1889), and Almond Blossoms (1890).

Continue exploring Amsterdam with a canal cruise. Sail through the city’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed canal ring and admire the elegant canal houses from the Dutch Golden Age, spot historic churches like the Westerkerk, and glide under charming bridges including the famous Magere Brug. Sit back and relax on this 1-hour canal cruise that takes you along some of the historic waterways and listen to the GPS audioguide, available in 19 languages, to learn interesting information about iconic landmarks.
