The Experience
What your day looks like
For those who aren’t familiar with Dutch culture – and who is real? – we will explore its rich and vibrant past through a selection of works from among the 8000 objects on display. We’ll discuss familiar names like Rembrandt as well as lesser-known items like 17th-century dollhouses. Understand the meaning behind Vermeer’s “The Milkmaid” and marvel at the expansive 19th-century library. At the end of the tour, you’ll have a good overview of the museum’s collection and you may even know how to pronounce its name correctly.

Anna was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot about the economic, cultural, and political background of the art. It was in many respects an art history lesson. She was just a little bit too ideological for me, otherwise I would give her 5 stars.

Anna took a diverse group of people and gave us headphones to use in this packed museum and taught us about the art with humor, conjecture, and significance. She knew here topic and was truly fabulous!

Good tour, excellent guide. Unfortunately with the noise of the crowd, it was a challenge to hear. Headsets would be advisable.
