★★★★★2 months agoAmazing experience just try to get the 9:00 a.m. slot so you can be the first in there. You do go into her attic and there are some very steep narrow stairs so be aware of that and you do also get to see her original diary. Very worth going to. I had to get my tickets on StubHub since they are sold out way ahead of time.
John Richardson
★★★★★3 months agoI traded Anne Frank's Diary in the 7th grade, and was too young to fully appreciate the story. To be there, to walk through the same rooms where she and her family hid from the Nazis was very powerful. If you visit Amsterdam, this is a must. Afterward, climb aboard one of the canal boats for a beautiful tour of Amsterdam from a unique perspective. It will clear your head.
