    I was able to enter the museum without having to wait and I really enjoyed both the building and the large number of fantastic exhibits and works of art. The library, the works by Vermeer and the special exhibition were my highlights. The cafeteria and store are also first class. An all-round successful museum in which I spent a full 6 hours and will be happy to return.

    I liked the exhibit, although I thought it would be larger, and the architecture of the building. It was nice to learn about the history of this country. It would be nice if other famous paintings of Rembrandt and Vermeer were there.

    Very great experience to visit the museum with a combined ticket with 1 hour of navigation on the Amsterdam canals. It wasn't possible to book a mid-day slot for the museum visit that morning, but thanks to the combination ticket I was able to plan a visit from midday onwards and then, go on with the mini-cruise, and be at the airport on time afterwards.
