First Class experience with brilliant art historian - Had a brilliant private tour with Florentine this morning - a hugely knowledgable art historian with impeccable English. She showed us how to really look at a piece of art and how to admire and critique what we were looking at. Thoroughly recommend this tour and the professional company that runs it.

An Educational and Inspiring Art Tour! - Together with my sister I joined the private art tour from Amor Artium at the Rijksmuseum, and it was one of my highlights of my visit to Amsterdam. The tour was led by two young art experts who spoke about art with so much passion and enthusiasm. Very inspiring! I really appreciated that the tour didn't focus only on the famous, mainstream paintings (although you do get to see those as well). We also were introduced to lesser-known artworks and objects, including very interesting, and fun facts. Their insights made me look at the art in a different way and helped my better understand the historical context of the time. Also, the pace of the tour was perfect. We never stood too long in front of an artwork, but it also never felt rushed. There was room to ask questions and to engage in a conversation. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants a deeper, more engaging museum experience that feels lively, accessible, and anything but dry.

So fascinating! - I had an absolutely outstanding tour at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The experience was informative, engaging, and perfectly paced. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the history, art, and stories behind the masterpieces to life in a way that was both accessible and fascinating. I gained a much deeper appreciation for the collection and the museum itself. The tour was well organized and felt personal, with plenty of time for questions and discussion. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Amsterdam !

10/10 tour! - We have been to Rijksmuseum before but it’s so different actually hearing/ learning about the details and meanings of paintings. We loved our tour guide, she put in all the effort, such a great energy. Would highly recommend!

This tour by Amor Artium changed my view on museum tours - This tour by Amor Artium changed my view on museum tours. The tour guides are very knowledgeable about the art works and history, but most importantly they know how to tell the story to their audience. There was enough room for questions, interaction and conversation throughout the tour due to the group size. This really created depth to the tour and it painted a bigger picture. Thank you for the amazing afternoon!
