Van Gogh Museum
In this tour we will dive deep into the life, art and inspiration of Vincent. You will learn why and how Van Gogh started taking up the brush at 27. Discover the importance of his beloved brother Theo in his life, and gain understanding about his relationships and his family. Van Gogh was tormented by his mental difficulties, learn how this shows, next to his genius and his temper, in his masterpieces such as ‘The Potato Eaters’, ‘The Sun Flowers’, ‘The Yellow House’ and ‘The Almond Blossom’. You will get a better understanding about the different artistic periods, for example his ‘dark period’ in Brabant, his experimental period in Paris, and his turbulent time with Gauguin in the yellow house in Arles. Vincent takes his own life at 37, his art dealer brother Theo dies a few months later. So who is the person who makes Vincent famous? Behind every success story of a man stands a great woman..

Titia was an amazing tour guide. I felt like we learned so much more in 90 minutes on this tour than if we wandered the museum for 3 or more hours on our own. We learned the story of Vincent the person and the artist as told through the paintings of his life. It was fascinating to see the progression of his art as he went through life changes. And the story of how "Vincent Van Gogh" the famous artist came to be is a heartwarming story of a family who never gave up on Vincent. Hearing his life play out against the paintings brings new meaning to the work. And now understanding the pigments and changes in the artwork brings new meaning and understanding to why they look as they do. If you want to learn more than just what a digtal audio guide will tell you, book this tour. Well worth the time.

Our tour guide Camilla was fabulous! We enjoyed having a private tour. She was so knowledgeable giving us facts I would have never have known. Our 2 1/2 hour tour was so interesting that it flew by. She took us chronologically through Van Gogh’s life and works. If you want a great tour, book this one! We travel a lot and this was one of the best and well worth the many and experience of having a small group and excellent guide!

Our tour guide, Fanny was an amazing guided, giving us history of Van Gogh as well as the intricacy and the technique of his paintings. She was very vivacious and illustrative. of the various time periods of Vincent’s life. She was very knowledgeable of each of the paintings. She made the tour very fun. Can’t highly recommend anyone enough as Fanny.

We had a mixed experience with this company, which is why I have given them a poor rating. On the morning of our scheduled 10AM tour around 8:00, we received an email telling us to meet our guide at 10:00 at the Van Gogh museum. We were there well before the meeting time. Shortly before 10:00, a woman came up to us on a bike and told us that the company had been trying to call me to tell us the tour had been moved to 11AM. I had no missed phone calls from the company. She then threatened to cancel the tour if we did not agree to the time change. We reluctantly agreed to the changed time just minutes before our 10:00 tour was supposed to start. She rode off with no apology for the schedule mixup and was rather rude during the entire exchange, acting as if this schedule change was our fault. I later looked through my email messages, which is a terrible way to communicate if you expect immediate read receipt by the recipient, and noted that I had two additional emails from the company…one received 18 minutes before our 10:00 start time telling us the tour had been moved to 11:00. And one asking if my phone number was listed correctly, which is was, received 12 minutes before our tour time. I had no missed calls from the company so it appears that they never tried to call, but were simply trying to cover their lack of communication with us. It was a very unfortunate start to the tour as we lost our lunch spot afterwards because of the time change. I wrote to the company afterwards to tell them about this experience as opposed to immediately posting a bad review of them because despite the rude woman from the company and despite the extremely late communication on the change in the tour time and the lack of a phone call or text when the company had the correct phone number, we liked the guide who did a nice job of recovering from a very bad start to this tour. I subsequently wrote to the company asking for consideration of an extending a discount for this tour given the rudeness of the initial staff, lack of communication and inconvenience of the delayed tour. They never bothered to respond. So my advice is to be careful when booking with this company....their customer service is lacking.

Nicholas, our guide, was wonderful! His knowledge of art in general, was incredible and he knew just where to take us and where to stand to see the most important pieces.

Fannie our guide was delightful and guided us through the museum with just the right amount of details about the key pieces. Her engaging energy and knowledge kept us captivated about Van gogh’s journey in the art world until his death. Highly recommend!

Our tour guide, Fannie, was very knowledgeable and passionate about Van Gogh and his paintings. Not having an art background myself, I learned a lot from her both about Vincent’s life, his development as an artist, and techniques used in the paintings she discussed. I very much enjoyed my tour either her and wish that I could have spent more time in the museum, but couldn’t due to time constraints.
