Included Service

Ticket: "Rijksmuseum Guided Tour", Amsterdam (The Netherlands)

To prepare for your trip and get the most out of your visit, I recommend reading a few guides and books about Amsterdam and Dutch art. For practical travel information and local tips, consider “Rick Steves Amsterdam & the Netherlands”, “Lonely Planet Amsterdam”, or the DK Eyewitness Amsterdam guide for great maps and visual highlights. To deepen your understanding of the art you will see in the Rijksmuseum, you might enjoy “The Rijksmuseum: History of a National Museum” and “The Dutch Golden Age: Art and Architecture”. For a more narrative approach to the city’s history and atmosphere, books like “Amsterdam: A History of the World’s Most Liberal City” by Russell Shorto and “The Diary of a Young Girl” by Anne Frank (which connects to another key site in the city) will give you cultural context and a more personal perspective on Amsterdam before you arrive.
