Our guide Claire was highly enthusiastic, knowledgeable, considerate and entertaining. She obviously has a deep knowledge of her subject but was able to impart information in an easy casual manner which made the learning experience very enjoyable. Highly recommended. Group is kept small and therefor ample opportunity to ask questions and focus on interest areas.
A must see!

The museum is really incredible! Having a guide like Ronald certainly enhanced the experience. Not knowing the town I was a little Leary about finding the meet up place but it was a cafe just outside the museum!
See some art Masters in Amsterdam

Quick, specific museum tour. Perfect for seeing a large museum while on limited time. Guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Group was "small" (less than 20 people) which was nice.
Okay but I can get much better
