The museum was fanastic, but we got no instructions or details for the canal cruise, so we did not get to do it.

Our guide never showed up. We contacted Viator twice while waiting by the entrance but did not get a response, not even an apology for being late. We paid for a guide and a boat tour and received neither. I definitely do NOT recommend Viator.

That when you try to contact Viator no one responds. I tried three times. Terrible service. I tried chatting.

I missed the canal boat, I didn’t realize I needed to schedule that myself. And, after finding the office to book the tour, didn’t have enough time to do the tour and return to my scheduled bus. I should have just booked the museum. It was sold out that day, so having advanced tickets was a necessity.

Amazing museum. Works by other artists who influenced VG annoying but VG works perfect. Staff friendly and building clean.
