Skip the Line: Van Gogh Museum and the Red Light District Small Group Walking Tour

Amsterdam, Netherlands

Experience two of Amsterdam’s most popular attractions, the Van Gogh Museum and the Red Light District on this 5 to 5.5 hour walking tour. Enjoy a semi-private excursion with an engaging guide. This tour welcomes up to 8 guests and will touch on the alternative culture and vice that makes Amsterdam so appealing, while studying painter Vincent Van Gogh’s artistic tendencies towards darkness. Your skip-the-line tickets to the museum are good for the entire day, so you can return to explore the museum after the tour concludes. 

Meet your guide outside the Rijksmuseum at 10am before skipping the line at the Van Gogh Museum to begin exploring the largest collection of the famous artist's works in the world. Marvel at The Potato Eaters and The Bedroom as well as objects from his studio. Learn about the artist's troubled life, from his days in Holland to his dramatic ending in France.

Refresh yourself over a lunch break with your small group of no more than eight people before trekking to the Red Light District. Learn about the relationship between Vincent Van Gogh and this iconic neighborhood, which led him to create a few scandalous works of art. With your local guide, wander through the salacious streets and coffee shops of the Red Light District, following in the footsteps of Van Gogh himself before concluding the tour in central Amsterdam. Your museum ticket is good for the entire day, should you want to return there to explore its galleries at your leisure.
