Description:

Get a double dose of Amsterdam's must-see architecture and art with a visit to the Van Gogh Museum and a cruise down the historic center's charming canals. Glide along the UNESCO-listed waterways, then admire masterpieces by the Netherlands' most celebrated post-impressionist painter.

Step aboard a glass-topped vessel to take in postcard-perfect views of Amsterdam's delightful Golden Age merchant houses, leafy walkways, and the ancient bridges that straddle centuries-old canals. Take in views of the Westerkerk and the Anne Frank House, and listen to insightful historical commentary and anecdotes with a personal headset, learning about the city's past and present in the language of your choice.

Welcoming almost 1.5 million visitors a year, the Van Gogh Museum is one of the best—and busiest—attractions in town. Skip the lines to spend the most time possible observing the world's largest collection of paintings by the Dutch artist. Marvel at the vibrant colors, swirling brushstrokes, and depictions of light and landscapes as you stand before works like Sunflowers, The Bedroom, and a series of Van Gogh's self-portraits.

The littlest art fans can enjoy the museum, too, with a fun treasure hunt to complete as you visit and a variety of hands-on activities in Vincent's Traveling Case. After exploring the collection, feel free to visit the museum café or bookstore for an artsy souvenir of your own.
