Traveler reviews

★★★★★2 months agoAn incredible experience, I want to come back again! It's a quick tour filled with local history of art, politics, and a peek inside the life of the Six family

★★★★★3 years agoThe best private museum in Amsterdam! Real hidden gem! Go on its website and book your spot well in advance. You will be welcomed for an hour guided tour. Inside you will discover not only Rembrandt but stunning interiors and collection of art and things from all around the world. Family Six still live in the house. Photos inside are prohibited. My favorite story is about to buy part of neighbor’s house to fit the large painting painted by Paulus Potter in 1653. Gorgeous painting with N Tulp’s son on the horse. Marvelous!
